Markets join festive Independence Day rush
A sea of green and white drapes a street in Rawalpindi's Urdu Bazaar as vendors display a variety of flags, banners, and other patriotic merchandise ahead of Pakistan's Independence Day. PHOTO: AGHA MAHROZ/EXPRESS On the eve of the Independence Day, cities across Pakistan are buzzing with excitement as markets, streets, and homes transform into vibrant displays of green and white. Young people rush to grab Azadi deals, children eagerly choose flags and festive accessories, and women prepare for the occasion with colourful patriotic outfits. According to a report aired by the state news channel, the festive atmosphere has triggered a surge in sales of flags, accessories, and the latest patriotic clothing. "This year, we have seen a huge increase in demand compared to previous years," said a shop owner in a city market. Shoppers share the same enthusiasm. "I love how the whole city comes alive with colours and energy – it makes me proud to celebrate Azadi," said a university student. Citizens from various cities also expressed joy at seeing communities unite to decorate streets and homes, saying the displays "bring the spirit of freedom to life." Retailers in shopping malls, local markets, and online platforms are offering special discounts and bundles to attract customers. Malls are decked out in patriotic colours, while many people decorate their cars with flags and stickers. Roadside stalls overflow with green-and-white merchandise, adding to the lively atmosphere. In Lahore, preparations go beyond clothes and décor. Bakeries and sweet shops are creating Independence Day-themed cakes and treats, with orders for flag-shaped cakes and those inscribed with patriotic messages on the rise. "People love to celebrate with something sweet, and our Azadi cakes have become very popular this year," said a local baker. From Karachi to Quetta, shopkeepers report brisk sales as families prepare for gatherings and parties. "From traditional sweets to custom cakes and festive décor, the excitement is palpable," said a market vendor. The combined energy of booming sales, colourful decorations, and special treats is making this year's Independence Day celebrations among the most vibrant in recent memory, according to citizens in Islamabad. Murree unveils I-Day traffic plan The City Traffic Police (CTP) Murree on Wednesday announced a special traffic plan to facilitate tourists and maintain smooth traffic flow in the hill station during Independence Day celebrations. According to a CTP Murree spokesperson, the arrangements were made on the directives of the Deputy Inspector General (Traffic) Punjab. Over 200 officers and personnel will be deployed to regulate traffic in Murree. All traffic from Rawalpindi and Islamabad will enter Murree via the Expressway and RMK GT Road, while travellers heading to Azad Kashmir will be restricted to the Expressway route only.

Rising cost of festive goods fades patriotic spirit
With the nation's 78th Independence Day approaching, sales of national flags, flag-themed clothing, and decorative lights have fallen by 30 to 37 per cent compared with last year, owing to crippling inflation. However, loud air horns and fireworks continue to sell at their usual pace. The mounting inflation has deprived an already struggling nation of the joy of celebrating the country's 78th I-D. In the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, it is estimated that 95% of residents have been unable, despite their wishes, to hoist the national flag on rooftops, cars, motorbikes, or bicycles this year. Street and market decorations are also at a record low. With the cost of flags, children's patriotic clothing, and decorative lights soaring, public celebrations have been markedly muted. Inflation is steadily eroding every occasion for joy, great or small. In response to government directives, the Rawalpindi district administration has issued urgent instructions to all public offices and institutions to adorn their premises with colourful bunting, electric illuminations, and national flags. Departments including the Parks and Horticulture Authority (PHA), Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA), Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA), Social Security, the Education and Health Departments, Barani University, Fatima Jinnah Women University, the Education Board, the Agriculture and Forestry Departments, government schools, assistant commissioners and the Revenue Department have begun decorating markets at public expense. Government offices have also started displaying Independence Day banners and panaflex posters funded from official budgets. Although the administration instructed all officers and employees to wear national flag badges from August 1 to 14, around 95% of them have failed to comply. In commercial areas, only large retail chains have decorated their premises, while in the residential streets of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, flags on rooftops are a rare sight. From Marrir Chowk to Faizabad, some 51 stalls along Murree Road are offering national flags in various sizes, badges, and children's Independence Day outfits. Yet sales have been strikingly poor. Currently, flags cost between Rs200 and Rs1,000, while children's flag-themed suits range from Rs2,500 to Rs4,500.
