SANJAVI: A massive rally demonstrating unwavering patriotism and solidarity with the Pakistan Army swept through the streets of Sanjavi on Friday. The grand procession, led by Provincial Food Minister Haji Noor Muhammad Khan Damar, saw thousands of citizens from across the region unite under a sea of green crescent flags.
The rally, which also included Deputy Commissioner Abdul Quddus Achakzai, prominent tribal elders, and members of civil society, transformed the Sanjavi Bazaar into a vibrant spectacle of national pride. Participants marched enthusiastically, raising thunderous slogans of “Pakistan Zindabad” and “Pak Army Zindabad,” with the bazaar itself decorated like a bride in honour of the occasion.
Addressing the charged gathering, Provincial Minister Haji Noor Muhammad Khan Damar delivered a powerful speech, reaffirming the nation’s unbreakable bond with its armed forces. “Pakistan is our common home, and we will protect it with our blood and sweat,” Minister Damar declared. “Together, we will play the role of the frontline for the development and security of the country. We stand shoulder to shoulder with our army and other security forces.”
The minister paid profound tribute to the sacrifices of Pakistan Army personnel and civilian martyrs, stating that their “eternal sacrifices are a source of pride for all of us.” He emphasized the collective responsibility to further strengthen the hands of the armed forces and the government.
Referring to recent terrorist incidents in Balochistan, Minister Damar praised the swift and brave response of the security forces. “The cowardly attacks by Fitna-ul-Kharij in Quetta and other districts in the past few days were thwarted by our army and other institutions, who fought the terrorists bravely and sacrificed themselves. This is highly appreciable. The 25 crore people of this country stand firmly behind the Pakistan Army.”
He asserted that the overwhelming turnout at the rally was a testament to the patriotism of the local populace. “The participation of thousands of people in today’s wonderful rally has proven that the people here are patriotic Pakistanis and love the Pakistan Army.”
Striking a geopolitical note, the Provincial Food Minister identified India and Israel as “eternal enemies of Pakistan,” claiming that attempts to destabilize the country since its inception have consistently failed. “Pakistan was not given to us as a gift by anyone; rather, our elders under the leadership of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah sacrificed their blood to achieve this country. It is our duty to protect this God-given land,” he stated.
