Pakistan Railways has announced a series of nationwide events to observe May 10 as the “Marka-e-Haq,” with ceremonies planned across all seven divisional headquarters of the department.

According to a spokesperson, the main event will be held in Rawalpindi, where Federal Minister for Railways Hanif Abbasi will deliver a special address highlighting the significance of the day.

As part of the commemorations, the minister will also flag off the Green Line train decorated with special “Marka-e-Haq” branding, symbolising the nationwide observance of the occasion.
