The State Bank of Pakistan confirmed that all banks will remain closed, making it a day dedicated to national pride and remembrance.
This year’s Independence Day is especially meaningful due to Arshad Nadeem’s recent gold medal victory at the Paris Olympics 2024. His achievement has brought immense pride and joy to the nation, adding to the significance of this day.
As the country marks its 78th year of independence, the holiday provides a moment for everyone to celebrate the nation’s achievements and look forward to a bright future.
