In celebration of the nation’s 75th anniversary of independence, the Pakistani government will release a new version of the national anthem on August 14.

The effort was taken, according to a statement made by the Steering Committee for the Re-recording of the National Anthem of Pakistan, to “represent the current inclusivity in voices and expression” while maintaining its core.

Additionally, “the committee adopted a gender-balanced, all-inclusive approach and hired vocalists from diverse regional, cultural, and ethnic origins, from all religious beliefs, and from all musical genres.”

125 singers participated in practicing and recording the nation’s song in Islamabad in June after practicing for the most recent version at the National Academy of Performing Arts (NAPA) in Karachi.
