LAHORE: Pakistani nation is observing the 47th Defence Day on September 6 with traditional zeal and fervour, though the holiday is not announced now.
The same day in 1965, Pakistan survives a major Indian offence, whose military officers were sure to have a drink at Lahore Gymkhana.
But reportedly, Pakistan’s troops, with historians put emphasis on Major Aziz Bhatti as the major defence line, put up a great fight to stop the Indian troops.
Here are some great photos marking the day for our readers:
