Pakistanis Fumed, Disappointed In Dubai After Burj Khalifa Doesn't Light Up In Flag Colours On Their Independence Day; Video Goes Viral
The frustrated public then started raising slogans of 'Pakistan Zindabad,' showing their support for their nation and motherland.
A video has surfaced on the internet from Dubai that showed hundreds of Pakistani people left disappointed and fumed after the Burj Khalifa didn't display the Pakistan flag at the stroke of midnight of their Independence Day. In the video, one can see hundreds of Pakistani nationals waiting near the Burj Khalifa at the time of midnight, expecting that it will be lit up with the colours of their national flag.
However, to everyone's surprise, no display was projected on the world's tallest building even after the time was minutes post-midnight. The frustrated public then started raising slogans of 'Pakistan Zindabad,' showing their support for their nation and motherland.
Video Shows Pakistanis Disappointed Following The Incident
A woman who supposedly recorded the whole scenario on her mobile camera can be heard saying that, "The time is 12:01 am now and the Dubai officials have informed that Pakistan's national flag won't be displayed on Burj Khalifa. This has become our status now."
"All the Pakistani nationals here can be seen sloganeering, yet the Pakistan flag hasn't been displayed on the Burj Khalifa. So sad, they've played a prank on all the Pakistanis," she said.
People in the video can be seen disappointed and moving away from the place as they expected that the Burj Khalifa would lit up in Pakitsan flag's colour in an attempt to light up their spirit. However, things went the other way around.
About Pakistan's Independence Day
