Prime Minister Imran Khan has asked the people to celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr in a quiet manner with their families in view of Coronavirus situation and to express solidarity with oppressed Kashmiri and Palestinian people.

In his tweets on Thursday, he said this is a very different Eid. Firstly, he said there is Corona pandemic and it is vital for our people to observe SOPs as the country is now again beginning to control its spread.  

Secondly, the Prime Minister said equally critical is the need for us to show solidarity with the Kashmiris and Palestinians who are suffering from oppression by occupation powers in complete violation of their international guaranteed basic human rights.

The Prime Minister also extended Eid greetings to the Muslim Ummah.

Eid Mubarak to our Muslim Ummah. This is a very different Eid which we must celebrate in a quiet manner with our families, for 2 imp reasons. One: there is the Corona pandemic. In Pak we are now again beginning to control the spread so it is vital for our ppl to observe SOPs.
