In complete consonance with India’s age old beliefs and values, people from different religions and faiths come together on this special day to celebrate this occasion and to provide relief to those facing hunger, sickness and poverty.
As we mark Eid al-Adha this year, we are reminded of the thousands of people around the world who have lost lives and millions of people who lost their livelihoods on account of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and all those families battling challenges posed by this deadly infection. I remember our Scientists, medical professionals, our Doctors, our Nurses and thank them for their immense contribution in protecting the lives of millions. I also pray for our children who are facing many challenges and not been able to go to schools for over a year now. On this occasion of Eid al-Adha, we all resolve once again to collectively work towards facing this unprecedented challenge of Covid-19 pandemic and comprehensively defeating it.
Once again, Eid Mubarak to all Indian nationals and friends of India in Kuwait. May you all stay blessed and stay safe. May the spirit of community togetherness, principled service, and compassionate generosity bring good tidings to all those celebrating Eid al-Adha. "
