ISPR releases 'Hum Shuhada Hum Ghazi Hain'

Soulful tribute anthem honours Pakistan Police

ISLAMABAD:

In a moving gesture of solidarity and national gratitude, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) has officially released a special commemorative anthem, "Hum Shuhada Hum Ghazi Hain," dedicated to the courage, resilience, and supreme sacrifices of the men and women of the Pakistan Police.

Positioned as a tribute to the "Guardians Who Protect the Peace of Pakistan," the release honours both the shuhada (martyrs) who laid down their lives in the line of duty and the ghazis (veterans and survivors) who continue to stand watch over the country's security.

Behind every peaceful street, quiet night, and safe home across Pakistan stands a uniform—often unseen, frequently unthanked, and far too often sacrificed. From the bustling avenues of Karachi to the valleys of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and from the remote check posts of Balochistan to the heartland of Punjab, the Pakistan Police have consistently served as the nation's first line of defence against terrorism, violent crime, and disorder.

The anthem pays poignant homage to the human cost of this vigilance: the officers who never returned home, the empty chairs left at family dinner tables, and the children growing up proud of parents who gave their all for the flag.

Adding profound authenticity to the tribute, the anthem is performed by one of the force's own—Head Constable Raja Azam Javed of the Punjab Police.

Serving in the department since 2005, HC Raja Azam Javed is a seasoned police professional who has also served as a weapons instructor at the prestigious Police College, Sihala. Combining decades of disciplined service with a deep passion for music, his heartfelt rendition bridges the lived reality of the police uniform with artistic expression, lending raw emotion and credibility to every verse.
