[GEO.TV] As Pakistain's Independence Day fast approaches, an avenue in New York — the most populous city in the United States — has been co-named “Allama Iqbal Avenue".
Iqbal is an international icon
"New York is the most famous metropolis and naming an avenue after our national poet would cement Pak-US ties and a source of pride for Pak diaspora not only in NYC but across the United States," he said. Worked so well for MLK. He also paid tribute to Rashid for his resolute efforts to build better relations between Pakistain and the US, creating greater awareness about the history and culture of Pakistain in the US. It may be recalled that Rashid and APAG were instrumental in introducing a resolution in the US House of Representatives to designate March 23, 2023, as "Pakistain Day." | ||
