Almost 1,200 students from Government High School in Pakpattan formed a massive human flag, covering 9,600 square feet, to celebrate Pakistan's 77th Independence Day.

The feat, never before seen in the Sahiwal Division, was achieved under the supervision of Deputy Commissioner Sadia Mehr. 

The event, attended by notable figures including MPA Chaudhry Javed Ahmed and MPA Motiya Masood Khalid, showcased the students' commitment and love for Pakistan. 

Dressed in traditional attire, the students stood together to form the giant flag, demonstrating their unity and patriotism.

Deputy Commissioner Meher expressed pride in the students' performance, emphasising the need for such displays of national pride and unity. 

The event was part of broader Independence Day celebrations across Punjab, initiated by Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, APP reported.

The success of the event was attributed to the hard work of the students, teachers, and Dr. Abdullah Tabassum, who provided training and guidance. 

Deputy Commissioner Meher acknowledged the efforts of education department officials and teachers, highlighting the importance of fostering national pride among the younger generation.

The nation is celebrating Independence Day today (Wednesday) with a renewed pledge to work with the spirit of the Pakistan Movement to make the country a true Islamic welfare state. 

The day began with a thirty-one-gun salute at the federal capital and a twenty-one-gun salute at the provincial headquarters.

Buildings and major roads in Pakistan are decorated with colorful lights and green flags, giving the country a festive look.

Islamabad is also adorned with a rainbow of colors to mark the occasion.
