President Pranab Mukherjee on Wednesday greeted people on Eid-ul-Fitr.

"On the auspicious occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr, I extend my warm greetings and best wishes to my fellow citizens, particularly to all Muslim brothers and sisters in India and abroad," the President said in his message.

Mukherjee said the festival marks the culmination of the holy month of Ramzan, a month of prayer, blessings and forgiveness.

"Let us on this occasion rededicate ourselves to the service of humanity and share our happiness with the poor and needy," Mukherjee said.

He said Eid celebrations will reinforce the nation's commitment to mutual goodwill and inspire everyone to follow the path of love and universal brotherhood.
