In view of the flood devastations, Pakistan Defence Day would be observed with simplicity but with national spirit on Monday. All functions and ceremonies with respect to this day have been canceled.

On the occasion of Defence Day tribute would be awarded to the martyrs of 1965 war by putting flowers on their graves and prayers for them.
All the cantonments have also postponed the festivities, which they organized every year on this occasion including the defense exhibition. online
