Minar-e-Pakistan is situated in the old Minto Park presently known as Iqbal Park . Minar-e-Pakistan has been constructed at the site where the Pakistan Resolution was passed in 1940. The object of this Resolution was to launch the struggle for the attainment of a separate homeland for the Muslims of the Sub-Continent, which was then governed by the British. The Minar expresses the spirit of the movement for the creation of Pakistan .
