Prime Minister Imran Khan has stressed upon the nation to adhere to Quaid’s vision and follow his guiding principles of unity, faith and discipline towards making the Country a truly welfare, progressive and prosperous state.

“Let us reiterate today that the mistakes of past shall never be repeated and we all will work, as one nation, to transform vision of the Quaid into reality and to take the country to its rightful place among the comity of nations,” the prime minister said in his message on the birth anniversary of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah on Tuesday.

The nation is celebrating the 142nd birth anniversary of Quaid-e-Azam today with renewed commitment to work hard for progress and prosperity of the Country.

“Today, on the birth anniversary of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, we pay our tributes to one of the great leaders of 20th century who altered the course of history by his vision and relentless struggle for the rights of the Muslims,” Imran Khan said.

The prime minister said that our Quaid rekindled a hope amongst the oppressed Muslims of sub-continent, led constitutional struggle and brought into fruition the idea of carving out an independent Muslim state on the map of the world.

Imran Khan said that while celebrating birthday of the Quaid today, let us reflect as to how far we have succeeded in adhering to the path outlined by our leader.

“Let us rededicate ourselves today to the vision of our Founder. Our Quaid had envisioned a state where we could live and breathe as free men, where we could enjoy freedom from fear and want; where we could fashion their lives according to our religious and cultural values, and where the principles of State of Madina could be followed to create a just and prosperous society,” he said.

The premier said that the Quaid had wanted a society where every citizen enjoys the privileges of equal rights; where rule of law reigns supreme and establishment of a state which provides its umbrella to marginalized and vulnerable and also facilitates growth of every individual to his/her full capabilities.
