Pakistan Armed Forces safeguard nation’s dignity, survival: Dr Tariq Fazal
ISLAMABAD, Jul 14 (APP): Federal Minister for Parliamentary Affairs Dr Tariq Fazal Chaudhry on Tuesday said the Pakistan Armed Forces were not merely an institution but a symbol of the nation’s dignity, security and survival.
In a statement posted on his X account, he said, “Our peaceful sleep and freedom are made possible by the sacrifices of the soldiers deployed on the country’s borders.”
The minister said that from snow-covered peaks and deserts to the frontlines of the fight against terrorism, the country’s soldiers had laid down their lives in service of the nation.
He said the history written with the blood of the nation’s martyrs could never be erased by any political statement, sarcasm or ridicule.
“The value of these great sacrifices made by the Pakistan Armed Forces can never be diminished under any circumstances,” he added.
The minister said that differences of opinion were everyone’s right, but respecting the nation’s defenders and honouring the blood of the martyrs was a shared responsibility.
Dr Tariq Fazal said that whenever the homeland called, the sons of Pakistan proved through their actions that “Pakistan First” was their guiding principle.
“It is because of the everlasting sacrifices of our martyrs that Pakistan’s green and white flag continues to fly high with pride,” the federal minister said.
He prayed that Allah Almighty would elevate the ranks of the martyrs, grant good health to the country’s veterans, and bless Pakistan with lasting peace and security.
