A Historic Gathering at Expo City Dubai

This grand event was jointly organized by Emirates Loves Pakistan and Pakistan Association Dubai, which may be due to the large number of Pakistanis there. The event has the full support of Dubai Police and various government agencies.

The event was attended by key dignitaries, including:

  • Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan – UAE Minister of Tolerance and Coexistence
  • Faisal Niaz Tirmizi – Pakistan’s Ambassador to the UAE
