Paying tribute to the persons whose sacrifices contributed to the creation of Pakistan, Senator Captain Shaheen Khalid Butt said that the dignified never forget their heroes.

He said the country’s continued standing as a sovereign, dignified and independent state was a source of pride for the nation.

He also described the recently concluded Makkah Joint Defence Agreement as an important milestone reflecting Pakistan’s achievements on both the diplomatic and defence fronts. “These historic achievements are a source of pride for the people of Pakistan and remind us of the responsibility that comes with independence,” the Managing Director said.
Congratulating employees who had recently been promoted, Senator Captain Shaheen Khalid Butt assured the staff that their long-standing and legitimate grievances would be considered and addressed in accordance with the law and applicable rules.
