The five-day diamond jubilee celebrations to commemorate the first constituent assembly of Pakistan will start from Wednesday in Parliament House, Islamabad.

An elaborate plan of events has been prepared by the National Assembly Secretariat to commemorate the event in a befitting manner.

10th August carries a unique significance in the Parliamentary history of Pakistan since the Inaugural Session of the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan was held on those days before the transfer of power from the British rule to newly independent Pakistan from 11th August to 14th August 1947.

The theme of the celebration is "Mera- Parliman-Rahbar-i-Taraqqi-o-Kamal".
