Brass bands from all three sections of the Pakistan Army also participated in this effort. The new compositions, recorded with excellent imaging carry a rainbow of all the cultural and regional colours of Pakistan.
Addressing a flag-hoisting and unveiling of the anthem ceremony at the Jinnah Convention Centre, Sharif said that like their forefathers, on this day, they vowed to transform Pakistan into an economic giant.
“If we can become a nuclear power, we can also become an economic power but for it, we have to strive day and night and prove to the world that we are no less than anyone in the world,” he added.
