On this auspicious occasion of Iqbal Day, I extend my heartfelt tribute to Dr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal, the visionary poet-philosopher and a towering figure whose thoughts and writings have deeply influenced the course of our nation. Iqbal's philosophy ignited the dream of a separate homeland for the Muslims of the subcontinent, leading to the creation of Pakistan. His teachings on self-reliance, self-awareness, and unity remain a source of inspiration for us to strive for progress and prosperity as a nation. Allama Iqbal's poetry is not just a reflection of his time but a timeless call for action and introspection. He urged the youth to rise above mediocrity and achieve greatness through unwavering faith and hard work. As we celebrate this day, let us commit ourselves to imbibing his vision and building a nation that reflects his ideals of justice, equality, and excellence. Let us embody his teachings and move forward with renewed hope and determination. Embargo : Not to be published, broadcast or posted before 09 November 2024 ?
