Karachi: More than 100 sea vessels, including fishing boats, trawlers and launches, hoisted the Pakistan flag as they chased one another into the Karachi Fish Harbour while returning from their fishing expedition for the Jashn-e-Azadi Boats Rally on Monday, 14 August.
The rally, organised by the Pakistan Coast Guard in collaboration with the Native Island Fisherman Association, started from the breakwater and ended in the harbour.
Speaking the annual rally, DG Pakistan Coast Guards said: “The aim of the exercise is to show solidarity with the nation. As you celebrate Independence Day on land, the fishermen do it in the waters. They also do it to show their solidarity with the armed forces.”
