President A P J Abdul Kalam on Sunday greeted the countrymen on the eve of the New Year and Id-ul Zuha and exhorted them to spread happiness everywhere by helping the needy.
'On the occasion of the New Year, I extend my greetings and best wishes to all my people in India and abroad,' he said in his message.
He asked the fellow citizens to spread happiness everywhere by sharing knowledge, removing pain and giving part of one's rightful earning.
"Happiness will spread everywhere, if citizens of our country decide to give. Giving gives happiness," the President said.
In his message for Id-ul Zuha, Kalam said it is indeed a day of remembrance of the great sacrifice and a thanksgiving day to the Almighty who has bestowed everything to humanity.
It is a beautiful mission for every family to give to the needy, the President said, adding, 'By giving, God multiplies happiness to the family.'
'May God bless you all,' he said.
