Pakistan Day HistoryPakistan Day, also known as Republic Day or Resolution Day, seeks to remember and celebrate the Lahore Resolution of 1940 and the creation of Pakistan. The day honours the struggles, sacrifices, and visionary leadership of the nation's founding fathers. The Observance typically features grand military parades, air shows, national songs, and cultural performances that highlight the depth and richness of Pakistani traditions. The history of the Lahore Resolution holds tremendous significance for the British Pakistanis, as many can trace their roots to pre-partition India. British Pakistanis played a crucial role in Pakistan's development, particularly in the fields of education, science, and trade, and thus, their connection to the day is one of pride as well. Pakistan Day is generally observed with various events organised by the Pakistani diaspora to celebrate the rich cultural heritage and history that connects them with their homeland. Held in major cities such as London, Birmingham, and Manchester, these events may include flag-hoisting ceremonies, seminars, and cultural performances. The High Commission for Pakistan in London also participates in these activities to promote cultural exchanges and a better understanding of Pakistan among the British public. Pakistan Day is observed on the 23rd of March each year. Pakistan Day Facts
