    Essay: Independence Day

    It was the 14th of August when the Muslims of the


    subcontinent were able to get a land of their own,
    where they could live life according to their
    religion. 14th August 1947, Pakistan gained
    Independence after remarkable efforts made my
    Mr. Muhammad Ali Jinnah who was a man of
    great caliber and had the belief that Muslims
    could only live happily when they would own a
    country led by their own people and a country
    that would be according to the ideology of Islam.
    The Muslims of the subcontinent gave many
    sacrifices for several years as they were not
    allowed to practice their own religion with
    freedom as they were the minority. However, the
    efforts made by people like Muhammad Ali
    Jinnah, Allama Iqbal and Sir Syed Ahmed Khan
    made sure that their sacrifices did not go in vain
    and they were able to provide the Muslims an
    independent homeland.

    Independency day for any country is like a festival


    and the people of Pakistan celebrate this festival
    with enthusiasm and joy. They unite together
    under the green and white flag of Pakistan and
    rejoice their happiness with friends and family.
    People from all over the country have different
    ways of celebrating the Independence Day. Some
    people dress up in green and white to show their
    love for the country while others visit national
    monuments like Minar-e-Pakistan and Quaid-e-
    Azam’s Mausoleum. Many people also use this
    opportunity to meet up with relatives and give
    gifts to their loved ones.
    Children also enjoy this day to the fullest. There
    are functions arranged across all schools in the
    country where children sing national songs, dress
    up in green and white and enjoy scrumptious
    meals. They do not have regular classes on this
    day which allows them to have free time off due
    to which children look forward to the
    Independence Day. There is also a trend in many
    homes to decorate their houses with flags and
    paper flags and from adults to children everyone
    participates in doing the decorations. Such is the
    spirit of the people of Pakistan as patriotism runs
    in their veins.
    It is necessary that people of the country pay
    tribute to their heroes as it was only their efforts
    which allowed them to have an independent
    nation. The people of Pakistan also remember and
    pay tribute to those who dedicated their lives to
    earn freedom for them. A change of guard
    ceremony is conducted on the national
    monuments of the country including the
    mausoleum of Muhammad Ali Jinnah the founder
    of Pakistan and at the Mausoleum of Allama Iqbal
    who was also the father of the ideology of
    Pakistan. There are various Independence Day
    programs aired on the television throughout the
    day and multiple concerts held during night time
    in various parts of the country.
    Although the people of Pakistan celebrate the
    Independence Day with patriotism and great
    passion, they should remember what Jinnah’s
    dream was and they should always questions
    themselves whether they have made this country
    according to his dreams or they have forgotten
    the reason for the formation of Pakistan.
