2020 may not be like any year we have experienced before. But regardless of the current pandemic, our celebration of Independence Day remained undisturbed. Pakistan witnessed its 74th year of independence with great vigor and enthusiasm, proving how vital this nation is to us.
Our day was filled with sincere patriotism, national anthems, white and green ambiance, and the same old rallies and songs reminding us how much we love our country. On this day, we witnessed stalls of Pakistan flags, badges, buntings, and how eager each and every person on the street was. Each citizen celebrated the Independence Day in their own ways. Our very own celebrities demonstrated their love for Pakistan by dressing up in beautiful white and green ensembles. Let’s walk you through some of which caught our attention.

We Pakistanis made sure to remember as a nation the importance of belonging to an independent country. The usual fireworks and rallies marked this country’s 74th year of being independent. We couldn’t be more grateful for being a Pakistani. Earnestly hoping that this year denotes the tremendous positive changes Pakistan is awaiting to witness.
