The Defence Day of Pakistan reminds us of the indomitable courage of the people and the Armed Forces of Pakistan in thwarting the nefarious designs of an enemy five times in size and equipped with much superior weapons.
On this historic day we pay homage to the courageous men of the Armed Forces and salute the Shuhada who laid their lives for the defence of their motherland. We also pay tribute to the gallantry of the Ghazis who through their valiant and fearless acts in the war of 1965 carved a credible niche in the history of Pakistan, in the battles over land, air and sea.
The supreme sacrifices of our jawans, airmen, sailors, and civilians have provided us the basis to build our nation into a recognisable power. Let us not falter from the tone set forth by our predecessors and continue to strive for excellence at par with world navies.
The geo-political scenario in our region has added a different dimension to the concept of national defence and it now places extra responsibilities on our shoulders. Not only that but we should remain abreast to the latest technological developments in the field of defence and utilise our indigenous resources for building an effective defence of our motherland.
The nation realises that our success lies in self-reliance and Pakistan Navy with the grace of Almighty and farsightedness of our leaders has made a major headway in the field of indigenisation and self-reliance by building the state of the art submarines, missile boats and mine hunters, thus contributing a significant share towards the defence and economy of the Country.
The officers and men of Pakistan Navy stand proud and bow their heads to Allah Almighty for giving us the vision, determination and courage to make the defence of the sea frontiers impregnable through our own resources.
By the grace of Allah the officers and sailors of Pakistan Navy are fully prepared to meet the challenges of the future.
On this auspicious day, Pakistan Navy stands together with the nation and renews its pledge to remain alert, vigilant and ready for defence of our motherland. We commit ourselves to sail beyond the call of duty to defend every inch of our sacred soil at all costs. Inshallah.
May Allah give us the will, courage and strength to live up to the expectations of the nation.
Pakistan Navy Zindabad, Pakistan Paindabad
