Gilgit Baltistan Cultural Day held in London

2017-08-28 5

London: London based students and professionals from Gilgit-Baltistan and Chitral (GBC) gathered in central London to celebrate the Independence Day of Gilgit-Baltistan. 1st November is celebrated every year commemorating the efforts and sacrifices of the local peoples to liberate the land from the Dogra rule. This event was organized by a group of students from GBC. The event was an effort to promote awareness about GBC region to national and international audience. This region, has always held a unique status because of its strategic, economic and cultural value. At the same time the region has remained ignored and the people are still waiting to be constitutionally part of Pakistan.

Keeping such a background in mind, the students utilized the opportunity of independence day celebration to discuss history, socio-political and economic development, cultural and linguistic diversity along with the existing problems of the region. Students focused on the issues of GB ranging from identity, political and constitutional rights to education and healthcare.

GB’s due share in CPEC and promotion of tourism industry was highlighted too. In addition, students reaffirmed their role as ambassadors of Pakistan in general and GBC in particular. Students from GBC have been actively participating in presenting a soft and positive image of Pakistan around the globe.
