The nation is observing this day every year with a renewed pledge to sacrifice everything to defend the geographical and ideological frontiers of the country.Newspapers will bring out special supplements while radio and TV channels will beam special programmes to mark the day. Highlighting the significance of the day, Defence analysts said the Day reminds us of the indomitable courage of the people and armed forces of Pakistan in thwarting nefarious designs of the enemy.
They said the supreme sacrifices rendered by the Shuhada and Ghazis served as a beacon of light and source of strength for us and the nation could rightly be proud of the outstanding courage of the defenders of the motherland. At a time, when the country was facing internal and external challenges, the need of the hour is to forge national unity to thwart these designs, they said.
