Pakistan is the country where the most wanted soldiers were to wear iron shoe in South Asia. Pakistan, also separated from India, was also freed in 1947 as well. Subsequently, in 1958-1971, 1977-1988, and the 1999- 2007 period, the commander-in-chiefs of the Jamaiya Khan, Zia-ul Haq and Pervez Mushrup were administered. During that period, the constitution was changed from time to time so that the powers of the parliament were passed to the military leaders who became executive presidents.
Parliamentarians Wimal Weerawansa, Dullas Alahapperuma and former Minister of External Affairs Prof. GL Peiris joined this banquet.
