For me it was always a Resolution Day since ita the only explanation I have heard since childhood. Then i came to know Pakistan had its first constitution passed on 23rd March i thought they deliberately did it co incide with Pakistan Day. Today i read this column and now it seems it was Republic day to begin with and got converted to Resolution Day

Summary of Above Column

Pakistan got its first constitution passed on 23rd March 1956 and became a Republic instead of Dominion and hence got totally Independent of the British. So to commemorate the Day Gov. held a ceremony including Military Parade foreign dignitaries were invited and hence Republic Day was celebrated . In the coming years some journalists pointed out that Republic Day coincides with the Date of Lahore Resolution and this connection between Republic and resolution day was formed . During Military Regime Republic Day got converted to Resolution Day and slowly Republic Day was totally forgotten. the author tried to submit a request to PM back in 2009 but was told its not a good time

There is kind of an easy solution to this issue. Can someone prove that the 23rd of march was celebrated before 1956?

You can't blame this on Gen Zia. The 1956 constitution was revoked long before he came to power.
it was slow speed to hell until zia came in power and drag country to fire and rain of fire balls with speed of light .

Now its not even a resolution day its a Pakistan Day so may be incorporate both Resolution and Republic into it not only the former. I think 23rd March 1956 is also very significant day in our history but many of us dont know about it at all

The Lahore Resolution, commonly known as the Pakistan Resolution; was a formal political statement adopted by the Muslim League on the occasion of its three-day general session on March 22–24, 1940..
