Happy Independence Day 2022

 

The most significant day in Pakistan's history is August 14. On this auspicious day, our nation gains independence. Pakistan is a modern, pluralistic, tranquil, and tolerant nation. Muhammad Ali Jinnah stated the following in his presidential address to the Pakistani Constituent Assembly on August 11, 1947:

The Pakistani state's encouragement and facilitation of minorities' full involvement in socioeconomic and political activities serve as a stark illustration of this. Minorities are represented in a variety of fields, including the military, law enforcement, civil service, judiciary, media, sports, and show biz.

Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh made up the one, huge landmass known as the Indian subcontinent. Conflicts and Hindu persecution of Muslims have shattered the subcontinent's tranquility since Islam was introduced and adopted. Ideas and philosophies for the protection of the Muslim minority were created after the War of Independence in 1857.

The All-India Muslim League was founded in 1906, and on October 1 of the same year, the first committee of 36 Muslim leaders presented the viceroy of India at Simla with their demand for a separate state for Muslims. Later, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, a politician, and lawyer gained notoriety as the creator of Pakistan. Jinnah presided as the All-India Muslim League's head from 1913 till Pakistan's independence.

Allama Muhammad Iqbal was another visionary who fought for the expulsion of Muslims from India. In his presidential address, Iqbal made the idea on December 29, 1930, in Allahabad. The Allahabad Address has now ushered in a new era in history. Pakistan was originally used in a pamphlet titled "Now Or Never" in 1933.

In July 1947, the British parliament enacted the Indian Independence Act. For India and Pakistan, separate temporary administrations were established on July 20. The enormous British Indian subcontinent was finally partitioned into India and Pakistan on August 14, 1947. Later, Pakistan transforms from a dominion to a republic and becomes the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Dr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal, Liaqat Ali Khan, Fazl e Haq, Molana Shabbir Ahmed Usmani, and many more worked hard to ensure that their sacrifices were not in waste and they were able to provide the Muslims an independent homeland. Along with man, women also worked hard during independence movement.Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah, Begum Ra’ana Liaquat Ali Khan, Begum Salma Tassaduq Hussain, Begum Jahanara Shahnawaz, Lady Abdullah Haroon and Shaista Ikramullah are the few names that appear on the top but thousands of women participated in this struggle.

Since the inception of Pakistan, The Pakistani government is working for the protection of minorities ad providing equal opportunities. the government is eager to develop a plan for the renovation or building of houses of worship for minorities. Pakistan decided to reopen Hindu temples all around the nation. In this context, recently, a 1000-year-old Hindu temple in Sialkot was restored after being closed for 72 years, and a 200-year-old temple in Zhob was given to the local Hindu population. The 500-year-old Gurdwara Babe-de-Ber in Sialkot was also inaugurated.
