Professor Najma Akhtar, the varsity’ vice-chancellor, said, “Feeling of intense joy marks the festival of Eid-ul-Fitr celebrated after a month’s fasting and acts of worship performed with a spirit of discipline.”

“But today’s world combating COVID 19 pandemic demands this festival to be the celebration of boundless spirit of kindness and charity, renunciation and sacrifice and profound love and compassion,” she said.

The world which is struggling hard to brave the challenges posed by the oppressive pandemic urges upon us to form fresh bonds of kinship with people, Akhtar said in her message.
