He visited the memorials of the martyrs, laid floral wreaths and offered prayers for their elevation in ranks. Chief Secretary, IGP and ACS (Home) also placed flowers at the police martyrs’ monument. A police contingent saluted the martyrs.

Mohsin Naqvi also met with the families of the police martyrs, expressing solidarity with them and inquiring about their problems. He gave instructions to the concerned authorities to address their issues. He paid tribute to the police martyrs in strong words.

While addressing the Martyrs’ Honor Day ceremony, the CM said that the nation pays its respects to the martyrs of the country today. He stated that the martyrs’ sacrifices serve as a guiding light for the nation and emphasized that their mission of protecting and ensuring peace in the homeland will continue.

He strongly condemned the violent events of May 9th, considering them a black stain on Pakistan’s history. He said that the unparalleled sacrifices of the martyrs of police and other law enforcement agencies can never be forgotten. “The sacrifices of the martyrs will never go in vain. Today is celebrated to honor the martyrs who were insulted on May 9 and the government will not sit idle till the arrest of the last miscreant.

No other thing will be done until all the perpetrators are caught,” he said. Mohsin Naqvi said that every miscreant is being traced with the help of the Pakistan Army and intelligence agencies. He vowed to make Capt Asfandyar Shaheed Chowk and Yaadgar Memorial in Faisalabad a memorial square of Pakistan, and those responsible for damaging the memorial boards in Rawalpindi would not be spared. Those who insulted the martyrs deserve the worst punishment. Nations that stand with their martyrs, they are the ones who move forward. Nations that do not value martyrs, cannot be exalted in the world.

He commended the efforts of the IG police and his team in addressing pending cases and working for the welfare of the martyrs’ heirs. He acknowledged the dedication of the Chief Secretary and IG Punjab, stating that they work tirelessly. He concluded by stating that honouring the martyrs should be an everyday practice.

Earlier, we used to celebrate only September 6, today is the answer of the nation to the evil elements who insult the martyrs.
