Pakistan grades September 6 Defense Day annually to venerate and pay compliments to martyrs and Ghazis of the armed forces and heroes who forfeited their lives safeguarding the motherland against Indian forces during the 1965 war.
The 2021 Defense and Martyrs Day theme is our martyrs our pride.
Special observances are offered after Fajr in mosques for the advancement and affluence of the country and independence of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir from the harsh charges of India.
Fateha and Quran Khawani is apprehended for the martyrs. The day originated with 31 gun salutes at the Federal Capital and 21 gun salutes at provincial capitals.
Defense Day is distinguished in Pakistan as a national day to honor the sacrifices completed by Pakistani soldiers in defending the borders.
The Defense Day is a demonstration of the national symbols of Pakistan. The military and security assistance of Pakistan are helping to defend the nation from the intimidations posed by foreign adversaries and domestic peace spoilers.
The Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan has declared to persevere with the revealing of the actual face of a radicalized India to the world in his note to the nation on Defense Day. The prime minister has cautioned India not to error Pakistan’s desire for peace as a flaw since it must be joint for the sake of trade and industry interests and peoples’ affluence in the all-inclusive constituency.
The prime minister of Pakistan Imran Khan said on Defense Day,
“Pakistan still faces danger from its enemy. The two-decade-long war against terror, creating disturbances and carrying out sabotage activities inside Pakistan or new waves of unleashed propaganda through cyber warfare and spy software was evidence of that. India has constantly perpetrated terrorism against Pakistan in the past, using Afghan soil to create unrest in Pakistan. On this Defense Day, we not only condemn those involved in such heinous acts but also pay special tributes to our valiant armed forces who have rendered invaluable sacrifices for our motherland.”
Furthermore,
“The world must hold India accountable for its rogue behavior. We commend the proactive and timely response of our security forces; India today stands exposed before the world community for its bid to hamper peace in the region, especially concerning Pakistan. My message on this Defense Day to the valiant armed forces is that together, we have come a long way in the struggle for making Pakistan’s defense strong and impregnable.”
It was 1965, and the Indian militaries overlapped the international boundary in the blackness of night to attack Pakistan. The militaries of Pakistan had well protected the state and marked history with bravery and dedication.
Defense Day marks the remembrance of courage, fearlessness, resolution, and competence verified by Pakistan’s armed forces against the Indian deceitfulness and destructive strategies during the 1965 war.
Notwithstanding the bombshell attack by Indian forces, the determined military personnel, with the love and prayers of the entire nation, has efficaciously defended the independence and uprightness of Pakistan.
The valiant soldiers of Pakistan’s military services, supported by an amalgamated nation against Indian violent behavior. The determination of the military has won the honor and actualized that no power on earth can undo Pakistan.
The national media of Pakistan is airing exceptional programs covering national songs, and interviews of the family members of the martyrs and ghazis on Defense Day.
Distinctly, Prime Minister Imran Khan has also rewarded accolades to the courageous soldiers of the Pakistan Army.
He further said,
“The saner international elements do recognize our role for peace. When India attacked Pakistan during the 1965 war, the entire nation came out to support its army. Such a display of national unity galvanized the already spirited armed forces in their fearless fight against the enemy, which has no parallel in history. Ready to defend every inch of the motherland. The gallant soldiers and officers, pilots, and sailors of Pakistan’s armed forces proved to the world that they were ever ready to defend every inch of the homeland at all costs.”
The sacrifices of the martyrs, the stanch strength of character of the soldiers, and the unconquerable harmony of the people of Pakistan are the strong suit and the assurance of an optimistic future.
