79th Pakistan Day: PM Imran Khan says Pakistan’s defence is impregnable

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Prime Minister Imran Khan in his message on 79th Pakistan Day has said that by the grace of Allah Almighty our defence is impregnable.
“We are proud of our gallant armed forces,” the prime minister said when the entire nation is celebrating Pakistan Day on Saturday with a commitment to ensure progress, prosperity and a strong defense of the country.
The prime minister said that the courage of our armed forces, the capability of our national security institutions, and their countless sacrifices have foiled nefarious designs of the enemies of Pakistan. He said that the entire world witnessed it during the recent Indian aggression and we emerged from the situation even stronger than before.
Imran Khan said that we desire friendly and peaceful relations with all our neighbors, based on the principle of equality. He said that we want countries of the region to join hands for eliminating poverty and help their people achieve socio-economic prosperity.
However, he added, that we want to make it clear that our desire for peace should not be treated as a weakness. “Pakistan reserves the right to take every step for its defence,” he said.
The prime minister said that we are endeavoring to make the country a true Islamic Welfare State. He said that we are committed to establishing a society which is based on compassion and justice and where every person can contribute towards socio-economic development to the best of his ability.
“The Pakistan of today is a New Pakistan,” he remarked.
Highlighting the importance of Pakistan Day, Imran Khan said that 23rd March is a historic day in our national history when the Muslims of Sub-Continent determined their destiny in line with the vision of Allama Mohammad Iqbal. That very day, the Muslims of Sub-Continent, under the leadership of Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, resolved to carve out an independent Muslim State for themselves thus breaking the shackles of slavery and putting an end to tyranny of the Hindu majority. The struggle of the Muslim culminated in creation of an independent Muslim State on August 14, 1947. The creation of Pakistan enabled the Muslims secure their rights, religious freedom and socio-economic opportunities which were being denied to them by the Hindu majority who also threatened their cultural identity.
The prime minister said that the Lahore Resolution passed on March 23, 1940 was aimed at creation of a State where the citizens could enjoy equal opportunities irrespective of caste and creed and where they could play their due role in the progress of the country.
Imran Khan further said that today, we should not forget our Kashmiri brethren who have long been victim of Indian state terrorism and are forced to lead a life of misery.
“While expressing our solidarity with our Kashmiri brethren on this occasion we salute their courage and acknowledge their sacrifices,” he said. “We reaffirm our resolve to continue our political, diplomatic and moral support for the Kashmir cause at every international forum.”
Furthermore, he said that today we are at a critical phase of our history where we are waging a struggle to rid our country of corruption and malpractices. He added that we are also striving for the economic stability.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: President Dr. Arif Alvi has said that we are committed to democracy, justice, and peace but also underlined the need for more work to be done for national progress and prosperity.
“We are destined to achieve the status of a model democratic state, as envisioned by Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah,” the president said in his message on Pakistan Day being celebrated on Saturday.
“23rd March marks the historic day when the Muslims of sub-continent decided to unite in their democratic demand for a separate homeland, where they could establish and practice their lives in accordance with their values and traditions especially justice, equality, and freedom,” he said.
“Today, therefore, is an occasion to pay tribute to the struggle and sacrifices of our founding fathers and pledge once more to live up to the ideals that form the foundation of the idea of Pakistan.”
The president said that Pakistan has surmounted unprecedented challenges and demonstrated resilience in the face of extra-ordinary circumstances. He said that it has accomplished exemplary successes in fight against terrorism and extremism.
However, Dr. Arif Alvi added, that there still remains the challenge of socio-economic development. He said that given our human talent and natural resources, our potential is immense.
“Let us have faith and remain united and let us commit to work hard with discipline to make Pakistan strong and prosperous. May Allah’s blessings be with us all,” the president concluded.
