It is the 28th of May today. A day which was formally named 'Youm-e-Takbeer' back in 1998 when the Nawaz government decided to declare Pakistan a Nuclear power worldwide!

Pakistani's today take pride in the fact that they belong to a nuclear power and their sovereignty is secure. But the father of the Pakistani nuclear bomb is in protective custody over false allegations.

The day is not celebrated officially anymore due to political differences.

The objective of this post is to remind you all of this day, that today is the 28th of May, Youm-e-Takbeer, a day when the mountains of Chaaghi experienced the power of the Pakistani Nuclear bomb! We are a nuclear power and international powers see it as a threat and are plotting against our nuclear deterrents.

For whatever reasons, Dr. A.Q. Khan was criminally treated, his basic human rights were clamped down and he has been confined to his home ever since.

I urge the new government to celebrate this day with national zeal, pride and unity!

The people of Pakistan want to see their hero, Dr. A.Q.Khan, free!
