About 400 students and Faculty members participated. PU HCBF Principal Prof. Dr. Mubbsher Munawar Khan highlighted the invaluable and tireless efforts, sacrifices and courage of Muslims of subcontinent through which they acquired Pakistan. He shared various glimpses from the national movement and excerpts from Quaid’s sayings.
He said that superior leaders like Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, Quaid-e-Azam and Allama Iqbal, who once were propounders of Hindu-Muslim unity, were compelled to believe that Muslims need a separate homeland.
He stressed upon students to work hard and excel in higher education for achieving unique position in the society and enlighten their country’s name in the world in order to negate the negative image about Pakistanis. At the end cake for the college’s anniversary was cut by the principal.
