He stressed that ideology remains the real strength of nations and urged the youth to contribute towards Pakistan\u2019s future, particularly in the economic sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Referring to Pakistan\u2019s nuclear capability, he said the country had become invincible after achieving nuclear power status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hashmi also praised the achievements of the Pakistan Air Force (PAF), recalling the legacy of MM Alam, who downed five Indian jets in record time during the 1965 war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During an emotional address, the Sindh governor said Pakistan\u2019s future leadership would emerge from among the country\u2019s youth, emphasising their role in shaping national progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking on the occasion, Raza said overseas Pakistanis are the country\u2019s economic strength, noting that remittances reached $38.3 billion last year and were expected to exceed $41 billion this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He urged overseas Pakistanis to use legal channels for sending remittances, adding that higher inflows could help Pakistan reduce dependence on the International Monetary Fund (IMF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Renowned senior journalist Sohail Warraich also addressed the event, saying that the world was openly acknowledging Pakistan\u2019s success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the conclusion of the ceremony, special prayers were offered for Pakistan\u2019s security, stability and prosperity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DALLAS: A grand event titled \u201cMARKA-E-HAQ PAKISTAN \u2013 Operation Bunyan-un-Marsoos, Battle of Truth Victory Day\u201d was held in Dallas to commemorate the first anniversary of Pakistan\u2019s victory against India in&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3847,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2111,895,35],"class_list":["post-3846","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-marka-e-haq","tag-pak-india-rivalry","tag-pakistan"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
