Guided by the vision of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the intellectual principles of Allama Muhammad Iqbal, we strive for a state where Islamic values, supremacy of the Constitution and law, democracy, justice, merit, human dignity, equality, national unity and public service are fundamental principles.
We consider the protection of Pakistan's integrity, sovereignty, ideological identity and national interests to be fundamental elements of state policy.
