RAWALPINI – On behalf of Pakistan’s armed forces, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee and the Services Chiefs congratulated the country on the 26th anniversary of Youm-e-Takbeer.
This historic day honors Pakistan’s 1998 nuclear tests, which effectively created credible minimum deterrence and restored the regional balance of power, according to a statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The ISPR stated that the Armed Forces and the nation honor the unflinching dedication and selfless sacrifices of all those who contributed to this extraordinary feat, which was accomplished despite enormous odds. The scientists, engineers, and administrators who dedicated their careers to making this idea a reality deserve the thanks and admiration of the nation and its Armed Forces.
“On this important day in Pakistan’s history, the Armed Forces of Pakistan reaffirm their unwavering resolve to defend the motherland, protect its sovereignty and territorial integrity, and ensure the nation’s security at all times and at any cost, InshaAllah,” said the ISPR.
