‘Must uphold honour of independence’

The nation, as a whole, must uphold the honour of independence, said Sindh police chief Mushtaq Mahar on the occasion of Independence Day on Friday. “This country was bestowed upon us on this day 73 years ago as a result of the uncountable sacrifices rendered by our ancestors,” said Mahar. Addressing police officials, he stressed that they were responsible of the safety and security of Sindh’s citizens, their property and their self-respect, while putting their own interests, priorities and biases aside. “The police uniform is a source of pride and dignity for us and the flag of our beloved homeland on it demands we do not hesitate to sacrifice our lives for its survival and glory,” he added.
