A twin engine plane is inherently safer than a single engine plane. So if an airforce has a choice, it would obviously fly the twin engine planes over public gatherings.

Am sure if Pakistan Air Force could afford twin engine fighter planes it too would prefer to use them over single engine fighter planes for public fly pasts.

bot now, however for future here's some history to enlighten your poor knowledge.
There's a saying in some circles that PAF was flying twin engine jets when some half of Indian public was sleeping under bridges.....1966 to be precise when the first F-6 arrived in Pakistan. Even when we could so called afford them, we still opted for A-7 Corsairs over the Jaguars and later declined both the Flankers and Fulcrums.
BTW, we don't just fly the single engine but even perform aerobatics with them over the parade venue something the IAF doesn't even with their twin engines.

Tejas light combat aircraft to make debut run on Republic Day parade...

Besides Tejas, the flypast will include Su-30 aircraft in Trishul formation and also a high speed run by a single Su-30, followed by vertical Charlie, which means the aircraft will virtually stand in the air.

Tejas has earlier flown at Indian Air Force Day last year, when its maneuvers left the spectators spellbound. It was also flown at the IAF’s fire power demonstration Iron Fist, Aero India, and the Bahrain International Airshow.

As a fourth generation aircraft, Tejas can fly at 1,350 km per hour...

As a single-engine, multi-role supersonic fighter, Tejas weighs 8.5 tonnes and can carry three tonnes and can carry three tonnes of weapons, including air-to-air missiles, laser guided bombs, guns,conventional/retarded bombs and beyond visual range missiles.
