More than 700 guests, including Qatari dignitaries, senior officials, members of the diplomatic corps, business leaders, and members of the Pakistani community attended the grand reception hosted by Pakistan Embassy at the Sheraton Hotel in Doha, to celebrate Pakistan Day. The reception was graced by the presence of prominent dignitaries such as HE Dr Abdullah bin Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Subaie, Minister of Environment and Climate Change; and HE Ahmed bin Mohammed Al-Sayed, Minister of State for Foreign Trade Affairs. Also in attendance was HE Ibrahim Yousuf Fakhro, Director of Protocol at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, among others.

He emphasised the importance of resilience, unity, and continued progress for Pakistan. The ambassador underscored the strong and evolving relationship between Pakistan and Qatar, tracing back to the establishment of diplomatic ties in 1972. He noted the recent visit of Pakistan's Prime Minister, Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif, to Qatar in October 2024 as a milestone in deepening bilateral cooperation in areas such as trade, defence, technology, and education. The ambassador also highlighted the cultural collaboration between the two countries, particularly the successful 'Manzar Art and Architecture from Pakistan 1940 to Present Day' exhibition inaugurated at the National Museum of Qatar by the prime minister of Pakistan and the Amir His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani. The ambassador expressed gratitude to Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad Al Thani for her pivotal role in bringing the exhibition to life—an effort recognised through the conferment of the prestigious Hilal-e-Pakistan Award by the Government of Pakistan. The ambassador paid tribute to the nearly 300,000-strong Pakistani community in Qatar, praising their contributions across diverse sectors including health care, education, finance, and construction. The event reaffirmed the enduring friendship, brotherhood and strategic relations between Pakistan and Qatar.
