Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif has approved a 10-day Basant festival in Lahore, announcing what she described as a major festive gift for the city\u2019s residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the announcement, Basant celebrations will be held from January 29 to February 7, 2027, with a one-day break on February 5 to observe Kashmir Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Basant was revived in Lahore earlier this year after a gap of 25 years, with celebrations held from February 6 to 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the upcoming New Year, CM Maryam has directed that Lahorites be given the opportunity to celebrate Basant over a longer period of 10 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CM Maryam said the 10-day celebrations would help promote the cultural colours of Punjab and Lahore\u2019s centuries-old historical tradition around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She said the festival would provide an opportunity to showcase Lahore\u2019s cultural heritage and traditional festivities to an international audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The chief minister directed authorities to introduce more comprehensive safety and facilitation measures than those implemented during the previous Basant celebrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maryam Nawaz stressed that the protection of human life must remain the top priority during the festivities and called on officials to perform their duties with a strong sense of responsibility and commitment. She also appealed to the public to demonstrate the same sense of responsibility and help ensure that the celebrations remain safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The chief minister urged citizens and authorities to set a new example, as they did during the previous Basant, by making public safety, responsibility and civic discipline central to the celebrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
