Vice Chancellor of UET Lahore, Prof. Dr. Shahid Munir (Tamgha-e-Imtiaz), offered Eid-ul-Fitr prayer at the Grand Mosque of UET. On this occasion, he mingled with faculty members and staff, exchanging Eid greetings. In his message, he stated that Eid-ul-Fitr is a day of expressing gratitude for divine blessings, self-examination, and accountability. "If we wish to strengthen ourselves, we must equip our new generation with the ornament of education." "On this day, we should also reflect on our individual and collective responsibilities over the past year.
We must acknowledge our shortcomings and continue the process of self-accountability to fulfill our personal and societal obligations, thereby making the world a better place. Society must realize that education is the key to elevating our standard of living. If we want to build a strong future, education must be our top priority. This step will not only ensure our progress but will also pave the way for our country's development." He further emphasized that "the progress and development of a nation depend entirely on education. It is also the source that nurtures the awareness and consciousness of a society.
A close look at the literacy rates of developed countries reveals the undeniable role of education in national growth. By spreading education in society, we can eradicate poverty." Special prayers were offered during the Eid gathering for the safety, progress, and stability of the country. Vice Chancellor of Islamia University Bahawalpur, Prof. Dr. Kamran, also offered Eid prayer at UET.
