Azerbaijan, Baku, March 16 /Trend News, J. Babayeva/

Sheikh of all Caucasus and Caucasus Muslims Clerical Office chairman Allahshukur Pashazade congratulated Azerbaijani people on Novruz holiday on March 16.

"Novruz holiday brings novelty to our lives and abundance to our households. It embodies love for the God Almighty, gratitude for everything that we eat or drink and good deeds for His sake," Pashazade said.

He said this year Novruz Holiday coincides with a referendum, which plays an important role in life of the people.

"Wise Azerbaijani people will decide whether to make certain amendments to improve the Constitution on the eve of the Novruz Holiday. I am confident that this choice will contribute to strengthening of Azerbaijani statehood and prosperity," the congratulation said.
