Pakistan Republic Day

This day is celebrated in commemoration of the Lahore Resolution (Qarardad-e-Pakistan) that was passed in 1940. The event was a 3 day general session that called for greater Muslim autonomy in British India.
This has physically been visualized in the form of Minar-e-Pakistan; a 60 meter tall monument resembling a minaret, built in Iqbal Park, Lahore, where the 1940 session took place.
The same day is also celebrated for Pakistan becoming the world's first Islamic Republic in 1956.
