Islamabad: The annual Pakistan Day Parade, scheduled for March 23, will be conducted on a smaller scale this year in consideration of the holy month of Ramadan. The event, traditionally held with grand military displays and national celebrations, will take place within Aiwan-e-Sadr, rather than its usual expansive venue. The decision to scale down the event reflects sensitivity to the spiritual and physical commitments of Ramadan while ensuring the commemoration of Pakistan Day remains meaningful. Officials emphasized that the event will maintain its symbolic significance, albeit with modified arrangements to accommodate religious observances.
Pakistan Day marks the Lahore Resolution of 1940, a defining moment in the country’s history. While the armed forces parade is typically a high-profile spectacle featuring military drills and aerial performances, this year’s ceremony will be more reserved. Despite the limited format, the event will continue to showcase Pakistan’s national pride, unity, and military strength. The government aims to preserve the spirit of the occasion while ensuring that the observance of Ramadan is respected. The Pakistan Day Parade remains a cornerstone of national celebrations, highlighting the country’s resilience and historic journey towards independence. Even with its adjusted scale, the event will serve as a tribute to the nation’s enduring strength and unity.
