Dar es Salaam, 4 August 2022 (TDI): The Pakistani Charge de Affairs in Tanzania, Muhammad Azam Bihan, meets other Pakistani representatives to discuss the preparations for the 75th anniversary of Pakistan.
The United Republic of Tanzania is an East African Country and Dar e Salaam is the largest city and port in the country. When Tanzania sought independence from British rule in the 1960s, Pakistan supported Tanzania by establishing diplomatic ties with Tanzania.
Tanzania and Pakistan have historic cooperation and partnerships. These relations have remained limited to providing material and technical aid to Tanzania while trade connections are fairly modest.
Pakistan’s 75th Anniversary
Pakistan got its independence from India on 14 August 1947. The founding of Pakistan was therefore a remarkable event and a rare occurrence in modern history.
Originally, the Indian subcontinent was a single, enormous region that included Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh. Since the introduction and adoption of Islam, conflicts and Hindu oppression of Muslims have broken the tranquility in the subcontinent.
The partition was full of bloodshed and carnage. Hindu brutality also intensified with the idea of getting independence and there was great opposition to Jinnah.
“You are free to go to your temples. You are free to go to your mosques or to any other places of worship in this State of Pakistan, you may belong to any religion, caste or creed — that has nothing to do with the business of the state.” ― Muhammad Ali Jinnah
Islamabad hosts the primary Independence Day celebration. The national flag flies high up at the buildings of the Presidency and Parlaiment. The Pakistani President and Prime Minister then make televised statements as the national anthem begins to play.
Pakistan Independence Day is a National Holiday in Pakistan and the country will be 75 years old this year on August 14, 2022.
