CM says will launch metro bus, green bus transport services in Faisalabad
She announced to introduce Faisalabad Development Plan on the identical model of Lahore. She announced to make the villages of Faisalabad division as model villages on the uniform development pattern of cities.
The Chief Minister while addressing the ceremony said, 'We want to make Pakistan the biggest power and strength across the globe. Everyone's intention was honest, Pakistan got a historic victory. If the people were not divided and the leadership was not united, we could not have achieved such a historic victory against the enemy. The historic victory made the entire nation united. We thank Allah Almighty on giving us success against the enemy. Today, myself and the whole nation take pride in the bravery of our officers and soldiers of the armed forces who defeated the enemy on every front.'
She highlighted, 'Our security forces bravely fought the war against the enemy and the entire nation stood behind them in every respect. We not only won the war but also ensured a bright future for the entire nation. I repeatedly told the children about those who tried to create disunity among ourselves. I have been telling the children time and again that they should not listen to those who try to spread hatred and division in our ranks. Every youth's step should be taken for the integrity, solidarity of our country and the nation.'
She maintained, 'All institutions belong to Pakistan and we should not fall prey to blind hatred. The future and destiny of our country is in the hands of our talented students. The sanctity of security forces uniform was disgraced, today these same soldiers are fighting daringly for our safety and security on the borders.' She said, 'Seeing the passion of the children gives me immense happiness, comfort and satisfaction. There can be no greater moment of rejoice than winning a decisive war. I urge the students not to become victim of anyone's lust for power and the youth of Pakistan out-rightly rejected the politics of hatred.'
The Chief Minister said, 'Whenever difficult times arrive, the brave sons of the nation stand tall. Those who created doubts about the future of our country had to feel ashamed of their misconduct. Giving laptops and scholarships to the students is not a favour to them but their right. I am the trustee of the sacred trusts of the people, everything belongs to our talented male and female students. Sticks and weapons in the hands of children look inappropriate as they should instead hold laptops in their hands.'
She added, 'While inspecting the projects, I frequently check the prices of vegetables. I thank to Allah Almighty that the prices of edibles are coming down. I want to give maximum number of laptops and scholarships to the talented students. Our children are capable, intelligent, hardworking and are our bright future. I congratulate the students who received laptops and scholarships along-with their parents and families.'

CM vows to play vibrant role in freeing country from poverty
LAHORE: Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif while addressing the unveiling ceremony of 'Marka-i- Haq' Monument, Museum and Park Project, said: 'I promise that I will leave no stone unturned to improve the lives of the people. We pledge to play our vibrant role in freeing Pakistan from poverty. Now we will wage a war against poverty and ignorance. We will fight to improve the country and will wage a war against sedition and disorder.' 'To win a war, it is not only military equipment which is necessary, but possessing unwavering faith in Allah Almighty as well. When the Pakistan Air Force downed the Rafale jets with JF-Thunders, no one could believe it,' she said. The CM outlined,' The entire nation salute those who downed the enemy's Rafale aircraft. I pay profound tribute to my Commander-in-Chief brother, Field Marshal Asim Munir, who displayed exemplary wartime leadership and led Pakistan to victory. This Independence Day celebration is marked for the whole Pakistani nation. The entire nation stands shoulder to shoulder with the Pakistan Armed Forces like an iron wall.' She highlighted,' If we had been politically divided, we could never have won the war against the enemy. From the Battle of Truth( 'Marka-i- Haq'), the world learned what 'Bunyan-um- Marsus' means. During my visits in various colleges across Punjab for the distribution of laptops to the talented students, I understood the phrase: 'This homeland is yours; you are its guardians.' The entire nation got united and became an iron wall against the enemy's aggression.' The CM underscored, 'Independence Day is dedicated to those mothers who send their sons to the battlefield with a lion's heart. The whole nation, Nawaz Sharif and myself pay tribute with profound reverence to the brave mothers who bid farewell to their young sons to the battlefield. We salute those brave daughters who sacrifice their marital life for the sake of sacred homeland, and the children who bear the pain of orphanage for the sake of the defence and protection of our dear homeland. The Independence Day is meant for those sons who gave their precious blood to safeguard their dear motherland.' She maintained ,' We dedicate the Independence Day to the valiant warriors who fought bravely on the borders. Every year we celebrate our Independence Day, but on account of Marka-i- Haq, this year's rejoice is unparalleled. Today is dedicated to the valiant soldiers who gave a befitting reply to the enemy's aggressive designs, to the leadership, officers, and soldiers of the Pakistan Armed Forces, and to Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, who made the country a nuclear power and rendered its defence impregnable.' She noted,' I commend Senior Minister Maryam Aurangzeb, the Bank of Punjab, IDAP, PHA, and the media team, and I request everyone to rise today with a firm resolve to make our sacred homeland greater and stronger than ever before. I also urge the workers, farmers, teachers, students, and politicians to set aside their political differences and give foremost priority to the progress and prosperity of their country. For serving the country and the nation is an honour not granted to everyone. If one attains an elevated position but is devoid of good intentions, it leads to disgrace.' She added,' The journey of decline that began in 2018 has ended. This soil is very fertile; it only asks for a little water and a little hard work. Pakistan has defeated an enemy four times greater its size with full zeal and determination. I commend the entire administration for celebrating the Independence Day with complete vigour and zest along with decorating and illuminating the buildings across Punjab. I pray to Allah Almighty that may Pakistan lives forever and we see it reaching great heights in our lifetime.' Copyright Business Recorder, 2025
