The government has made elaborate security arrangements for Christian religious festival and the birth anniversary of the Father of the Nation, Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

Punjab Police Inspector General Amir Zulfiqar Khan was told on Saturday that 28,000 officers and personnel would perform security duty during the Quaid-e-Azam Day and Christmas celebrations across the province. More than 6,000 officers and officials will perform duties in the provincial capital Lahore.

The way Christians in Pakistan celebrate their religious festivals, as well as the way Pakistani media, government officials, and political leaders celebrate Christmas, shows that minorities are entirely free to practice their religion and enjoy life as a citizen of Pakistan.
