Dubai Burj Khalifa Pakistan Flag lit up at last.
After much discussion online, the Burj Khalifa lit up in Pakistan’s green and white colors around 8 pm local time. This came after disappointment when the iconic building didn’t display the Pakistani flag’s colors on the country’s 77th Independence Day at midnight. Every year, the Burj Khalifa shines in green and white to celebrate Pakistan’s Independence Day. This year’s absence led to frustration and sadness among Pakistanis worldwide, who shared past photos when the building was illuminated similarly. Even though the building didn’t light up at midnight, many Pakistanis gathered there hoping for the colors. They chanted slogans despite the disappointment. Social media platforms were filled with anger and sorrow over the omission. People pointed out the gesture’s importance for solidarity and pride. Despite the letdown, some held hope that the incident would remind people of such acts’ significance. This incident sparked discussions about respecting national milestones across border.
