KARACHI: On the first anniversary of the historic victory in Maarka-e-Haq and Operation Bunyan-um-Marsoos, the Karachi Hockey Association (KHA) organized a grand ceremony at KHA Legends Arena to pay homage to the Armed Forces of Pakistan.
The event brought together the hockey fraternity, former Olympians, young players, and KHA officials who paid glowing tributes to the Pakistan Armed Forces. An exhibition hockey match dedicated to the Armed Forces of Pakistan was also played on the occasion.
Chairperson KHA Syeda Shehla Raza, addressing the ceremony, said: “One year has passed since the great victory of Maarka-e-Haq — a day etched in the heart of every Pakistani. The world witnessed Pakistan’s restraint in the face of provocation, but when we responded, the world saw India’s disgrace.” President KHA Imtiaz Ali Shah stated: “Pakistan defeated an enemy many times its size on all fronts — land, sea, and air — leaving them in a state of shock that persists to this day.”
