Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today felicitated people of the state on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha.
In her message, the Chief Minister prayed the festival further inculcates among people the values of selfless service, piety and care about others.
"The sunnah (tradition) of Hazrat Ibrahim, which embodies these values needs to be followed more in present times which are engulfed by acrimony, ill will and confrontation all across the globe," she said.

Mehbooba said the occasions like Eid should invite us to think about happiness and welfare of those who cannot afford or who became victims of fate due to one reason or the other.
"On this day, let's give our hand to orphans, widows, destitute and any other who needs it. There lies the real spirit of celebrating Eid-ul-Azha," she said.
Terming the Hajj as the best example of human camaraderie, Mehbooba said the annual pilgrimage gives the message that no barriers of caste, creed, colour or region exist before God.
The Chief Minister expressed hope that the day brings everlasting joy, peace and happiness to the people of the state.
