Happy Pakistan Resolution Day to All Pakistani Members at PDF. On 23rd March 1940 Our Elders have gathered in Lahore and passed a resolution for Pakistan's creation, Resulting Pakistan's birth seven years later in 1947.

The Ideology of Pakistan stems from the instinct of the Muslim community of South Asia to maintain their individuality by resisting all attempts by the Hindu society to absorb it. Muslims of South Asia believe that Islam and Hinduism are not only two religions, but also two social orders that have given birth to two distinct cultures with no similarities. A deep study of the history of this land proves that the differences between Hindus and Muslims were not confined to the struggle for political supremacy, but were also manifested in the clash of two social orders. Despite living together for more than a thousand years, they continued to develop different cultures and traditions. Their eating habits, music, architecture and script, are all poles apart. Even the language they speak and the dresses they wear are entirely different.

Thanks Allah Almighty for this great homeland, Pakistan.

After watching this historic video when one watches the news what is happening now a days corruption, violence, human rights violation of minorities, forced conversion of non muslims, robberies in the daylight on streets one just wonders what happened to the ideals of founding fathers. You can try to deny but can you prove that my assertion is incorrect?

23 March to Ayub khan k Constitution ki khushi main manaya jata tha :D Youm e Jamhoooria
 
The South Asian countries are engulfed by the nationalistic speeches by those who with in their respective country have been making fool of their citizens and this will keep happening in the foreseeable future untill and unless people revolt and take back coontrol of their nations future. The future leadership of respective nations should look at the common goal and objectives which are uplifting the down and less fortunate which will set our region inupward trajectory of peace and prosperity.

I am calling on the like minded individuals to wake up and put an end to corruption regardless where it is taking place because at the end of the day it effects my brothers and sisters in the region. Let us explore the opportunity of exchanging the ideas as to how common people can co-operate over the internet system to eradicate the status quo as it is and usher the new era of transparency and accountability by public and private officials at evry level in the society.

We chose the middle day so stop with your trolling.

The Lahore Resolution (Qarardad-e-Lahore قرارداد لاھور), commonly known as the Pakistan Resolution (قرارداد پاکستان Qarardad-e-Pakistan),was a formal political statement adopted by the Muslim League on the occasion of its three-day general session on March 22-24, 1940 that called for the creation of 'independent states' for Muslims in British India.

After watching this historic video when one watches the news what is happening now a days corruption, violence, human rights violation of minorities, forced conversion of non muslims, robberies in the daylight on streets one just wonders what happened to the ideals of founding fathers. You can try to deny but can you prove that my assertion is incorrect?

Anythings better than living under hindu rule.

Problems and progress: Reasons to celebrate Pakistan Day

Is Pakistan the most exciting place to live in the 21st century?

On the eve of the 72nd anniversary of the Pakistan Resolution, the evidence appears to be stacked overwhelmingly in Pakistan’s favour.

Consider this: the Pakistani people are frontline warriors in the greatest ideological battles of the 21st century. Whether it’s the war against religious extremism or the definitive showdown between democracy and entrenched dictatorship, the Pakistani people are playing an outsize role in shaping not just their own future, but also a new, post 9/11 world order.

If you want front row seats to witness 21st century history in the making, Pakistan is the place to be.

To the average global citizen, Pakistan is popularly known as the destination of choice for the world’s most notorious terrorists. But if you have the patience to look beyond the odd terrorist hideout, you’ll notice a nation on the cusp of a modern day Renaissance.

After the evocative images of revolution broadcast live from Tahrir Square, overthrowing dictators has suddenly become a fashionable benchmark for measuring the maturity of a country’s civil society. By that measure, the Pakistani people have a remarkable knack for overthrowing dictators with far more finesse than the widely acclaimed Arab Spring.

In less than 10 years, the Pakistani people have successfully fought for a free press, established an independent judiciary and secured free elections.

Today, Pakistan’s mainstream discourse is centered on how these freedoms should be managed responsibly, which can often be frustrating and may also be confused as a sign of weakness.

In reality, this is the hallmark of a country making giant leaps forward, in the right direction.

Now that we have some perspective on how much Pakistan has achieved in recent years, let’s talk about our dirty laundry: any country, found to be inadvertently hosting the world’s most wanted terrorist, would have secured an immediate pariah status in the international community, especially if it happened to be the only nuclear armed Muslim state in the world.

It is a testimony to the strength of Pakistan’s international linkages and our extraordinary ability to rebound after disastrous setbacks, that Pakistan bagged its first Oscar win, less than a year after the audacious raid on OBL’s compound.

You can throw everything and the kitchen sink at this country, but there appears to be no straw that can break Pakistan’s back.

Take the much talked about alarm over the rise of religious extremism in the region, which is a natural hang over from the ideological re-engineering in the 80’s in favor of the jihad against the Soviet Union.

It’s interesting to note what happened next.

The religiously puritan Taliban went on to rule Afghanistan and crushed any significant opposition to their movement. Meanwhile, the Pakistani people elected and re-elected the Muslim World’s first female Prime Minister, even before America, the leader of the free world, elected a female head of state. The difference is symbolic but very revealing, especially for those who worry about a Taliban takeover of Pakistan.

This is one of the many under told stories about the Pakistani people, who despite having everything, along with the kitchen sink thrown at them, are determined to transform their country and the world, into a better place, through their resilience and courage.

No one exemplifies this spirit better than the one man all Pakistanis look up to: Mr Abdul Sattar Edhi. This is a man whose unassuming social work serves as a window into the lives of millions of Pakistanis; who go about their everyday lives and in their own understated way, serve as warriors on the frontlines of the greatest ideological battles of the 21st century.

Over the last five years, a shadow of gloom has enveloped this otherwise proud nation of 180 million people, forcing them to believe that they can’t do anything right. Amidst all the noise about doomsday scenarios, it’s difficult to see the gleaming new engines of optimism emerging at the end of the tunnel.

The truth is that none of Pakistan’s problems are new. Our dooms day scenarios today don’t differ in substance from the ones we imagined 20 or 40 years ago. And yet, there is something markedly different about the reaction of the Pakistani people to these problems.

On one end of the spectrum, there is resignation and migration, something we have experienced throughout our history. But for the first time in our history, the other end of the spectrum is visibly emerging, with a vengeance. There are Pakistani people, in all walks of life, vocally calling for and initiating reform in their sphere of influence.

Look around you. Have you ever seen so many young Pakistanis excited about channeling their ideas for change by voting instead of taking up guns? Have you ever seen a sitting Pakistani prime minister drive himself to the Supreme Court, to hold himself accountable to the very judges he re-instated? Have you ever seen a Pakistani filmmaker being celebrated by the nation, for shedding light on the darkest corners of Pakistani society?

This is the swagger of a country on the move. After all, the Pakistani people have a remarkable track record for proving naysayers wrong, through the sheer force of their resilience, against all odds.

So this year on March 23, let’s take a moment to celebrate the many ways in which we’ve made our forefathers proud. We thoroughly deserve a pat on the back.

Happy Pakistan Day, to all of us. Pakistan Zindabad!

23rd March 1940 is when the Muslim League officially demanded a separate homeland for Muslims and passed the Pakistan (Lahore) Resolution in the site of Minar-e-Pakistan that stands today in Lahore, Pakistan.

The Resolution declared: "No constitutional plan would be workable or acceptable to the Muslims unless geographical contiguous units are demarcated into regions which should be so constituted with such territorial readjustments as may be necessary. That the areas in which the Muslims are numerically in majority as in the North-Western and Eastern zones of India should be grouped to constitute independent states in which the constituent units shall be autonomous and sovereign".


The Resolution repudiated the concept of United India and recommended the creation of an independent Muslim state consisting of Punjab, N. W. F. P., Sindh and Baluchistan in the northwest, and Bengal and Assam in the northeast. The Resolution was seconded by Maulana Zafar Ali Khan from Punjab, Sardar Aurangzeb from the N. W. F. P., Sir Abdullah Haroon from Sindh, and Qazi Esa from Baluchistan, along with many others.

Having passed the Pakistan Resolution, the Muslims of British India changed their ultimate goal. Instead of seeking alliance with the Hindu community, they set out on a path whose destination was a separate homeland for the Muslims of British India.
