I wish to remind the nation of the tragic attack on the Army Public School, Peshawar on December 16, 2014. Although years have passed, the grief of that day still weighs heavily on our hearts. The loss of innocent students was not only a national tragedy but a painful reminder of the threats that continue to challenge our peace. What concerns me is how quickly society tends to move on while the families of the victims continue to carry unbearable sorrow. Mere ceremonies are not enough. We must strengthen school security, counter extremist mindsets and unite as a nation to prevent such horrors from ever recurring. A true tribute to the APS martyrs lies in ensuring that every child can learn without fear.
