Addressing the competition, Maulana Tahir Ashrafi said no society in the world can flourish without brotherhood, equality, justice and mutual respect. 
He said that Pakistan was created after a long struggle, rendering unprecedented sacrifices of our forefathers by cherishing it. “We should do whatever it takes to bring it to safety and dignity,” he said. The Pakistani society is declining day by day so the young generation has a huge responsibility to do their part for its betterment, said Maulana Tahir Ashrafi. 
Sultan Ahmed Ali said that he is very happy to hear the speeches of the youth and has a firm belief the future of Pakistan is very bright.
He said that Pakistan came into existence on the basis of the two-nation theory and now Muslims of India are experiencing its importance and Quaid’s vision so we have to respect that vision.
