This comes just a day after Pakistanis created ruckus in Dubai. A video that went viral from Dubai showed hundreds of Pakistanis fuming after the Burj Khalifa did not display the Pakistan flag. The video showed huge crowds of Pakistani nationals waiting near the Burj Khalifa during midnight as they expected that it will be lit up with the colours of their national flag. However, to their disappointment, this did not happen.

However, it must be noted that the Pakistan flag was, in fact, displayed at the Burj Khalifa, a video of which was shared on social media platforms including Meta’s Instagram by the iconic structure’s official pages.

The video was accompanied by a caption that read:

“#BurjKhalifa lights up to celebrate The Islamic Republic of Pakistan’s Independence Day. Wishing the people of Pakistan a day filled with pride, unity and prosperity as you celebrate the rich heritage and achievements of your great nation. May the future hold even greater success and happiness for all Pakistanis. Happy Independence Day!”

On August 15, which happens to be India’s Independence Day, Burj Khalifa lights up with the colours of our national flag. Seems like Pakistanis expected the same on their Independence Day and were disappointed when it did not happen they were very disappointed. A video which has surfaced on the internet from Dubai shows hundreds of Pakistanis fumed after the Burj Khalifa did not display the Pakistan flag at the stroke of midnight. The video shows huge crowds of Pakistani nationals waiting near the Burj Khalifa during midnight as they expected that it will be lit up with the colours of their national flag. However, to their disappointment, this did not happen.

Frustrated by this, people started using slogans like ‘Pakistan Zindabad.’ The woman who is recording the entire incident can be heard saying,“”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.” She further added, “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.”

Here is the viral video:
