Did You Know? ’s First Two Independence Days Were on 15th August!

In the early years after independence, Pakistan’s national day was celebrated on in both 1947 and 1948. This was because Pakistan and India were granted independence at midnight on 14–15 August 1947, and the official date recorded by the British was 15th August.

However, soon it was decided that Pakistan should have a distinct date to mark its independence one that symbolically separated it from India. The authorities chose , coinciding with the 27th of Ramadan in 1947, a date of deep spiritual significance for Muslims.

From 1949 onwards, 14th August was officially adopted as Pakistan’s Independence Day, and the tradition of celebrating it with national zeal and enthusiasm began.

One of the unique pieces of history from that time is the commemorative postage stamp issued to mark the first Independence Day a rare collectible that reflects the hopes, pride, and aspirations of a new nation.

🇵🇰 Pakistan Zindabad! ♥

A land born of sacrifice, faith, and unity.

🔴 According to reports, ’s storage capacity has been reduced from its original 43,000 cubic feet to just 28,000 cubic feet due to the accumulation of silt, clay, and sand.

The dam remained empty for nearly two months, had timely desilting and maintenance been carried out, a significant volume of water could have been stored during that period. This situation underscores the critical need for regular upkeep of our water reservoirs to ensure long-term sustainability.

Inboxed Msg: "Today, I had an extremely distressing & unacceptable experience at during a neurology consultation with Dr. Akbar Ali Khan. My sister, who is already struggling with health issues, had an appointment originally scheduled with Prof. Dr. Khaleeq-uz-Zaman. However, due to his leave, we were referred to Dr. Akbar.

Despite his OPD timing being 11:00AM, Dr. Akbar did not arrive until 2:30PM. Patients, including us, were left waiting for hours without any communication, explanation, or apology.

When our turn finally came, I respectfully handed him my sister’s previous prescription from Dr. Khaleeq to help him understand her medical history. Shockingly, Dr. Akbar looked at it with disdain, tore it up, & made an extremely vulgar and defamatory remark about Dr. Khaleeq, a senior and respected medical professional, said: “Dr. Khaleeq uses his wife for sexual purposes. Ye tu chaprasi.” I was appalled by his language & asked him to maintain decorum and show respect. Instead, he became aggressive, stood up, & began shouting.

He threatened me, saying, “You don’t know who I'm. I'm a badmash. I can make you disappear. I have a licensed weapon & I will use it.” This was not only verbal abuse but a direct and terrifying threat made inside a consultation room. My sister, already in a fragile state, was visibly shaken & traumatized.

There was no hospital staff or security personnel present to defuse the situation or ensure our safety. We had no choice but to leave, humiliated, disturbed, & deeply concerned for our well-being.

Such behavior is not only shockingly unprofessional but poses a serious risk to patient safety. A doctor entrusted with people’s health must act with compassion, patience, & respect not violence, abuse, or threats.

I urge Hospital to take immediate & transparent disciplinary action against Dr. Akbar Ali Khan. If no action is taken, I will pursue all legal options available. As a journalist & citizen, I believe we have a moral responsibility to speak out against such misconduct. Silence only protects those who abuse their position. We must ensure our hospitals remain places of healing not fear".

In the memory of "Tarnol Incident " 😂

راول چوک اسلام آباد پر سی ڈی اے کی جانب سے ایک نیا فن پارہ نصب کیا گیا ہے۔ نیت قابلِ تعریف ہے، مگر سوال یہ پیدا ہوتا ہے کہ کیا واقعی سی ڈی اے کے پاس ایسے باصلاحیت افراد نہیں ہیں جو شہر کے مختلف مقامات پر خوبصورت اور بامعنی آرٹ تخلیق کر سکیں؟

اسلام آباد جیسے خوبصورت شہر کو ایسی تخلیقات کی ضرورت ہے جو اس کے حسن میں اضافہ کریں، نہ کہ فن کے جنازے کا تاثر دیں۔ اب وقت ہے کہ ماہر فنکاروں اور اربن ڈیزائنرز کو شامل کیا جائے تاکہ شہر کی شناخت کو مثبت انداز میں اجاگر کیا جا سکے۔
