"We are grateful to Allah Almighty for destroying evil intentions of the enemy," said Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif while welcoming Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's decision to celebrate Thanksgiving Day.

She added, "Today is not just a day of gratitude but a day of pride, courage and victory of national unity. Pakistan Army has proved itself as a brave, professional and talented institution."

The chief minister said, "Pakistan's armed forces responded to Indian aggression not only with bullets, but with wisdom and courage."

She added, "Our falcons have sent a message to the world that Pakistan's defence is invincible. The world has come to know that Pakistan will not take a single step back in its defence."

Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz said, "I salute our brave soldiers who looked the enemy in the eye and told him that Pakistan is peaceful, not weak or coward. Pakistan's leadership is sincere, the nation is united and armed forces are invincible. Sacrifices of our martyrs will not go in vain."

She added, "We will empower the youth with education, skills and technology. We will create a Pakistan that no enemy will be able to imagine looking at with evil eyes."

The chief minister also paid tribute to the mothers of martyrs in her message on International Mother's Day.

"Happy Mother's Day to the brave mothers of our martyrs. They are the silent warriors whose sons embraced martyrdom so that Pakistan could stand proud, independent and free," she said in her message on social networking website 'X'.

She highlighted, "Love of mothers of the martyrs is the purest, their sacrifice is the greatest and their strength is the soul of this nation, we salute them with eternal feelings of love, respect and gratitude."
