Yaum-e-Pakistan Mubarak

 Yes 23rd March is a historical date.
This is  Minar-e-Pakistan or Yadgar-e-Pakistan, situated in the grounds known as Iqbal Park (Previously known as Minto Park). It was built in 1968 to commemorate the historical moment when in the All-India Muslim League session held here
LAHORE RESOLUTION was presented Called "Pakistan Resolution" or ( in which a separate state was demanded by the Muslim league from the British Government)                  قرارداد پاکستان)  .
The resolution was presented by A.K. Fazlul-Haq (then chief minister of Bangal)
 Of course you can find more about it here

  FazlulHaq was like many other Bangali leaders of Muslim League was a very active supporter of Pakistan movement. A stern reminder for today's Muslims of Bangla Desh as well as for the Pakistanis of today who have lost all identity, neither Muslim leagi, nor Pakistani nor anything. Basically the "terrorists" have won, they were responsible for cleaving Pakistan and its ideology successfully, in 1972, 25 years after the birth of real Pakistan and they are now trying to disintegrate the left over Pakistan, a heart-wrenching reality for older Pakistanis like me.
 We have been calling this day "Pakistan Day" or yaum-e-Pakistan but how can we celebrate today and with what in my heart can I utter those words  یوم پاکستان مبارک   (Yaum-e-Pakistan mubarak)۔
