The delegation placed floral wreaths at the monument in observance of Pakistan Day and offered prayers for the martyrs of the nation.
Speaking on the occasion, Faisal Mir urged the government to immediately announce the construction of national memorials dedicated to Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto at Minar-e-Pakistan. He proposed that memorials be erected on both sides of the monument, terming the move essential to acknowledge their historic services to the country.
He said Zulfikar Ali Bhutto laid the foundation of Pakistan’s nuclear programme, while Benazir Bhutto strengthened the country’s defence through missile technology, adding that these contributions made Pakistan strong and dignified.
Faisal Mir concluded that the nation looks forward to the establishment of these memorials as a tribute to leaders who served and sacrificed for Pakistan.
