On August 9, 2008, Abrar Ul Haq along with Josh, Tariq Tafu and local bands gave a memorable performance at the Pak Day LA 2008, Exposition Park, Los Angeles. As always the event was free for public. It was the first time that Abrar performed for Jashn-e-Azadi mela in LA. An estimated 20K+ crowd were at hand that evening, electrified and brimming with patriotic fervor. The mela went on till past midnight.

23rd March 1940 – Lahore Resolution

ikram — Thu, 22 Mar 2007 10:32:29 +0000

اسلامی جمہوریۂ پاکستان‎

Ever wonder who designed this Minaar (tower)? I just happened to search it on Wiki and got an answer.

The Minar-e-Pakistan was designed by Murad Khan, a Turkish architect and built by “Mian Abdul Khaliq and Company” construction company.

More info:

The Minar-e-Pakistan is a tall concrete unique minaret in Iqbal Park in Lahore, Pakistan. Its height is about 60 meters [1] or 198.5 feet. The name can be translated as Minaret of Pakistan, Pakistan Tower or Pakistan Column. Now it is officially recognized as the National Monument of Pakistan. This is the site where in 1940, seven years before the formation of Pakistan, the Muslim League passed the Lahore Resolution, now the Pakistan Resolution, in which the need for a separate homeland for the Muslims from the Indian Empire under foreign rule was originally recognised
