Punjab chief minister Shahbaz Sharif on Friday visited the Mazar of poet-philosopher Allama Muhammad Iqbal at his birth anniversary and laid a wreath of flowers and offered Fateha.
The chief minister also prayed for the solidarity, progress and prosperity of the country, besides recording his impressions regarding the national services of Allama Iqbal in the visitors’ book.
Special Assistant Khawaja Salman Rafique, the Lahore division commissioner, the district coordination officer (DCO), Lahore, and other senior officers were also present.
Talking to media men, the chief minister said that Allama Iqbal, through his poetry, had awakened Muslims of the subcontinent and gave the idea of a separate homeland which was translated into reality under the dynamic leadership of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. He said that Pakistan was passing through a critical phase and it was a collective responsibility that message and ideas of Allama Iqbal were spread to every nook and corner of the country as the need of national unity and solidarity was more than ever now. He said that, unfortunately, serious and solid steps had not been taken during the last 65 years for the solution of the problems of the country and that was why Pakistan was lagging far behind developed countries in the journey towards progress and prosperity. He said that it was his firm faith that Pakistani nation could solve its problems itself without looking towards anyone else but, for that, an honest, capable and committed leadership was required which could work round the clock for achieving the targets of national development.
The chief minister said that, though the time was passing very quickly, but if decisions were made only in view of national interest, setting aside personal considerations, no power on earth could stop the process of building the Pakistan which was envisioned by Allama Iqbal and Quaid-e-Azam.

According to a press release issued here on Friday, in visitor’s book, Dr Kamran wrote that they were thankful to Allam Iqbal because the country could not come into existence without his philosophy.
GCU VC: Government College University Lahore Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Muhammad Khaleeq-ur-Rahman has said that Old Ravian Dr Allama Muhammad Iqbal’s philosophy is a beacon of light for youth and guarantees the Muslims renaissance. “It is up to the Muslim youth today to seek light from Iqbal’s philosophy and guarantee the revival of scientific, technological and social advancement,” he said.
