In line with the same spirit in different regions , the picnic was arranged in the federal capital Islamabad and the twin city of Rawalpindi for the Khanwada-e-Shohada-e-Millat-e-Jaffaria Pakistan. Earlier , picnics were held in July 2013 for Khanwada-e-Shohada-e-Millat-e-Jaffaria Pakistan [Sindh] as well as more recently for  Khanwada-e-Shohada-e-Millat-e-Jaffaria Pakistan [Punjab] and Khanwada-e-Shohada-e-Millat-e-Jaffaria Pakistan [Khyber Pakhtun Khwah] .



      

    

    

    

    

The families began to converge on the designated point at around 730 am in the morning and were served a sumptuous breakfast .From there on the caravan consisting of children and families of martyrs and working brothers of Shaheed Foundation Pakistan left on bus . The first destination was Pakistan Monument amid the scenic Shakarparian heights hanging on the outskirts of the federal capital. The place is a lovely site which has been built on a significant height from where the entire Islamabad and Rawalpindi's panoramic view is a treat to watch. The monument has structure depicting the culture of all the four provinces of Pakistan and a museum houses several unique items showcased. The children and families of martyrs tremendously enjoyed the stay at the place . 
After refreshments , the caravan was ready aboard the bus for destination next . - Daaman-e-Koh.

    

    

    

    

    

As the name depicts Daaman-e-Koh , is a lovely recreational point and is surrounded in cliffs , here since due to a national holiday ,the number of tourists were too much ,the local administration had put a bar of heavy vehicular traffic uphill to ensure smooth flow of traffic. The children and families therefore visited only the popular meadows of Daaman-e-Koh and were fascinated by different species of flora and fauna there . Nearly at 1pm the caravan left daaman-e-koh.

    

    

    

    

    

The next stop in the trip was the famous Ayub Park in Rawalpindi . This is quite a huge park and is a very good place for recreation in Rawalpindi . Namaz-e-Zohrain was offered here and later children got busy playing cricket and badminton . The elderlies preferred to sit under the shades of tree and enjoyed gossiping . Children also enjoyed rope climbing and other such healthy activities. At around maghrib everyone begun to pack up and the caravan began its journey back to homes . 

    

    

    

    


Shaheed Foundation Pakistan's Central Committee wholeheartedly and humbly thanks Khanwada-e-Shohada for their accepting the invitation for this event and fully endorsing the efforts of brothers .  Central Committee also deeply appreciates the efforts of working brothers of Rawalpindi and Islamabad region for putting in lots of efforts for undertaking this event so painstakingly and making it a unique example in itself .
