Independence day with in an Independent country. How many Independence days ? We have our independence day on 14th August. What is the point of celebrating GB independence on 1st Nov or Baluchistan independence on 11th Aug ?

Stop being so skeptical. It is not celebrated it is remembered, only 14 August is celebrated. It is a historic day for us, try to understand, as today we got freedom and soon became a part of Pakistan. Only flags that fly high at Gilgit is that of Pakistan. It is a historic day, we must not forget our history, again it is only remembered.

Happy indepence day to G.B

The day is significant because that was the day they declared themselves free from Dogra rule. And this was followed by accession to Pakistan. I remember not much was taught in old Pakistan about the history of the Northern Areas. Don't know now.
 
Happy Independence day to citizens of Gilgit Baltistan. :pakistan:

Salute to the lions of Northern Light Infantry and its parent, Gilgit Scouts.

It is given importance now, especially in Geography chapter, not much in history unfortunately. It should be...as it is a proud moment of our history.

That's a deficiency which could pose problem for Pakistan in future. I hope this is addressed for total integration of the wonderful people of this beautiful region which is strategic as well as potentially rich in natural resources.
 
It is part of the historical record that Gilgit & Baltistan people threw out Dogra Army on their own initiative and invited Pak forces to assume control of the region. As a Pakistani; no more & no less; I salute people of Giligit & Baltistan for their valour and love of Pakistan.

I have however been greatly disturbed by the rise of Takfiris in post Zia Pakistan and was worried that extremist forces led by TTP & Lashkar Jhangvi and their supporters in the form of JI leaders like Munawwar Hassan would continue punishing people of Gigli & Baltistan for the crime of being Shia until they are eliminated or migrate to some other place. Thankfully leadership of Gen Raheel Sharif has stemmed the tide to a great extent and Taliban Khan’s adoration of TTP also appears to be on the decline.

Another good tiding was virtual wash-out of the JI in the recent local bodies’ election. Hope that Jamaat Islami cadres realize the harm done to their popularity by their bigoted ex-Amir Munawwar Hassan.
