April 2 – World Autism Awareness Day 💙
Celebrating differences, spreading understanding.

Different, not less.

Here are 2 lesser-known facts about Pakistan Day—share this with others:

📜 At Minto Park in 1940, the historic resolution never used the word “Pakistan.”
The original text clearly calls for “independent states” instead.
Verified in Jinnah of Pakistan, Chapter 7, pp. 262–264 (reproduced resolution text).

🏛️ Secondly, it wasn’t even called Pakistan Day at the time.
It was known as the Lahore Resolution Day—the name evolved much later after independence.
Refer to The Making of Pakistan, pp. 104–106.

23rd March reminds us:
Nations are not built in a day.
They are imagined, questioned, and fought for—again and again.
