According to official sources, the ceremony will be held at the Army Auditorium which will be attended by army officers and others to pay homage to the martyrs and victors who rendered supreme sacrifices in defence of the motherland on September 6, 1965.
It may be recalled that the main ceremony to commemorate Defence and Martyrs Day was scheduled to be held on September 6, but was postponed this year in solidarity with victims of relentless monsoon rains that flooded parts of the country.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), in a tweet, had said the decision taken in solidarity with the flood-affected people of Pakistan.
It added that Pakistan Armed Forces shall continue serving our brothers and sisters struck by unprecedented floods.
