“I pray to Allah Almighty to bless the Kashmiri people with success at every front and they celebrate the next festival in free atmosphere, said the President. The whole Pakistani and Kashmiri nation salutes their spirit,” the president added.
Masood Khan lauded the services of Pakistan Army, police, Frontier Constabulary and other law enforcement agencies whose personnel are working day and night for the defence of the country.
The Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider felicitated the Islamic world in general and the Kashmiri and Pakistani nation in particular on the occasion of Eid.
