ISLAMABAD: The nation would celebrate Defence Day on Wednesday (September 6) with a renewed pledge to defend the motherland against all threats.

Special prayers would be offered after fajr in mosques for the progress and prosperity of the country. Fateha and Quran Khawani would also be held for the martyrs.
Numerous functions would be held all across the country to mark the day. Main function of the day will be held at General Headquarters in Rawalpindi to pay tributes to martyrs.
