ISLAMABAD: Pakistan is observing Defence and Martyrs’ Day today to reaffirm its commitment to defend the motherland against all threats and pay tributes to the martyrs and ghazis.

This year’s Defense and Martyrs’ Day theme is “Our martyrs our pride, a salute to all the relatives belonging to ghazis and Shaheeds.”
Special prayers will be offered after Fajr in mosques for the progress and prosperity of the country and independence of Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir from the cruel clutches of India.
Fateha and Quran Khawani will also be held for the martyrs, Radio Pakistan reported.
The day will dawn with 31 gun salute at the Federal Capital and 21 gun salute at provincial capitals.
The state radio will broadcast special programs containing national songs, interviews of the family members of martyrs and ghazis to pay homage to the defenders of the motherland.
