Fawad Ch said that it was good omen that all the Muslim countries were celebrating Eid on the same day. He lauded the services of Ruet-e-Hilal Committee members especially Mufti Muneeb-ur-Rehman. He gave credit to religious scholars for celebrating Eid on same day in Pakistan.

"This Eid was not possible without them. I thank them all," he mentioned.
