Pakistan has several “Official National Symbols”.

The symbols were adopted at various stages in the existence of Pakistan and there are various rules and regulations governing their definition or use.

Flag of Pakistan

Oldest symbol[edit]

The oldest symbol is the Lahore Resolution or "Resolution of Pakistan", adopted by the All India Muslim League on the 23rd of March in 1940, and which presented the formal demand for Greater Autonomy for Muslims in United India, and later led to the demand for a separate and Independent 'Pakistan'. The Minar-e-Pakistan memorial tower which was built in 1968 on the site where the Lahore Resolution was passed in 1940.

The national flag was adopted just before independence was achieved on 14 August 1947. The national anthem and the state emblem were each adopted in 1954. There are also several other patriotic symbols including the national animal, bird, flower and tree; and some other things known as "National Identity". The “National symbols” and mostly national things of Pakistan are mentioned and listed here respectively.

The State Religion of Pakistan is Islam, which is practiced by 96.28% of the population. Freedom of religion is guaranteed by the Pakistani constitution, which established a fundamental right of Pakistani citizens, irrespective of their religion, to equal rights.[1][2][3][4][5] The remaining 4% practice Hinduism, Christianity, Ahmadis, Sikhism, Baháʼí Faith and other religions.[5][6]

A rich house makes its foolish inhabitants wise. Don’t look down on anyone unless you are helping them up. Money doesn’t change people, it mainly exposes them. You can dress a monkey in a suit, but it is still a monkey. Be yourself beautiful, and you will find the world full of beauty. Look at a man’s deeds, not whether he is tall or short.
