LAHORE: The President Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) S

ependence Day of Pakistan that after even after so many years of its creation Pakistan has not become a stable country.
The former CM Punjab while talking to the media asserted that the cou
ntry has not achieved its full potential and is still searching for its destiny.
While commenting on the democratic situation of Pakistan, S
hehbaz said that democracy in Pakistan has not become stable yet. The PML-N president stated that the ship of democracy has not come out of the storm yet and we have not learned from our mistakes.
However, he added, “I believed in the supremacy of democracy, which is why I attended the National Assembly (NA) session,” (that took place for the oath-taking of newly elected MNAs a day earlier).
Pakistan is celebrating its 71 years of ind
ependence today with traditional fervor and enthusiasm. Earlier today, a 31 gun salute took place in Islamabad and a 21 gun salute in the provincial headquarters.
A change of guard ceremony
