On the occasion of Pakistan’s 77th Independence Day, Chief of Army Staff General Syed Asim Munir emphasised that any attempt to undermine the military is tantamount to weakening the country itself.
Addressing the Independence Parade at the Pakistan Military Academy in Kakul on Tuesday night – the eve of August 14 – where he was the guest of honour, General Munir reiterated the military’s commitment to defending the nation.
"Our national consciousness is rooted in the ideology of Pakistan, which is based on the Two-Nation Theory. Any effort to weaken our armed forces is akin to weakening the state," he stated. He expressed confidence that no negative force could undermine this trust.
The event commenced with the recitation of the Holy Quran, followed by a laser light show depicting Pakistan's struggle for independence and nation-building. The cadets performed a march-past, and a flag-hoisting ceremony was held at midnight, where the national anthem was sung.
The national flag was hoisted by the 12th Baloch Regiment at midnight, and attendees stood to sing the national anthem. The event was attended by cadets, their families, and other distinguished guests, who praised the cadets for their disciplined march-past. The troops reaffirmed their commitment to making every sacrifice for the nation.
General Munir expressed gratitude for the blessings of freedom and the establishment of Pakistan, acknowledging the sacrifices made by the forefathers and paying tribute to the heroes of the independence movement. He also highlighted the importance of unity, warning that discord and division could hollow the nation from within, paving the way for external aggression.
He noted that Pakistan, despite the rapid global changes, held a prominent position within the Muslim Ummah and the world due to its steadfast stance.
"Pakistan’s future is bright and secure, and our forces will continue to defend it with unwavering resolve," he said, underscoring the enduring bond between the military and the people of Pakistan.
He concluded by acknowledging the ongoing threat of extremism and terrorism in the region, commending the sacrifices made by the people, armed forces, and law enforcement agencies in combating terrorism, and reaffirming their resolve to continue making sacrifices for the nation's security.
