According to Inter-Services Public Relations, COAS General Syed Asim Munir hosted a graceful reception in honor of Pakistan Army veterans on the occasion of Independence Day. A multitude of retired army officers and soldiers attended the event.

Addressing the reception, the Army Chief emphasized the paramount importance of unity and resilience in the face of challenges, urging veterans to continue playing a vital role in Pakistan’s progress and development.
