LAHORE: Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif while addressing the unveiling ceremony of ‘Marka-i- Haq’ Monument, Museum, and Park Project, said: “I promise that I will leave no stone unturned to improve the lives of the people. We pledge to play our vibrant role in freeing Pakistan from poverty. Now we will wage a war against poverty and ignorance.
We will fight to improve the country and will wage a war against sedition and disorder. To win a war, it is not only military equipment which is necessary, but possessing unwavering faith in Allah Almighty as well. When the Pakistan Air Force downed the Rafale jets with JF-Thunders, no one could believe it.”
She highlighted,” If we had been politically divided, we could never have won the war against the enemy. From the Battle of Truth( ‘Marka-i- Haq’), the world learned what ‘Bunyan-um- Marsus’ means.
During my visits in various colleges across Punjab for the distribution of laptops to the talented students, I understood the phrase: ‘This homeland is yours; you are its guardians.’ The entire nation got united and became an iron wall against the enemy’s aggression.”
She outlined,” The entire nation salute those who downed the enemy’s Rafale aircraft. I pay profound tribute to my Commander-in-Chief brother, Field Marshal Asim Munir, who displayed exemplary wartime leadership and led Pakistan to victory.
This Independence Day celebration is marked for the whole Pakistani nation. The entire nation stands shoulder to shoulder with the Pakistan Armed Forces like an iron wall.”
She underscored, “Independence Day is dedicated to those mothers who send their sons to the battlefield with a lion’s heart.The whole nation, Nawaz Sharif and myself pay tribute with profound reverence to the brave mothers who bid farewell to their young sons to the battlefield.
We salute those brave daughters who sacrifice their marital life for the sake of sacred homeland, and the children who bear the pain of orphanage for the sake of the defence and protection of our dear homeland. The Independence Day is meant for those sons who gave their precious blood to safeguard their dear motherland.”
