Dr. Muhammad Yunus said, "Today, on the day of Eid, we are all very happy to be together. My condition is such that it is difficult to meet anyone. So, I am very grateful to have the opportunity to meet so many people today. We celebrated the great festival of Eid today. The message of Eid is reconciliation among ourselves, leaving the past behind and moving forward. We have been able to decide on such a day in society, it has given us, this is a great blessing for us. One day! It is not just a day, it is not just a meeting, we have to hug. This is the rule of religion. We embrace everyone by hugging them."

He said, "We should be able to absorb the good of the society with interest. That is why this Eid is very important, so that we can come closer to each other, we can move away from the distance from each other, we can unite the society around us. Because unity is especially important for us, for this time."

"May we achieve that. Let us take that message to heart at today's gathering and move forward, be tolerant of each other, and more than that, establish friendly relations with each other. This is how peace comes to society. Peace is very important in Bangladesh. Let us remember that."

The Chief Advisor said, "We remember this day every day. We want peace in the country, so that people can act according to their own interests. They should not have to act in fear of anyone. We all wish everyone well. We want peace for the nation and peace for the whole world."
