Pakistan is getting ready to give a big welcome to Arshad Nadeem, who’s coming back home after winning a gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. This is a big deal because it’s been 40 years since Pakistan last won an Olympic gold.
Nadeem is set to arrive at Lahore Airport just after midnight. A lot of people are going to be there to greet him, including his family, government officials, and fans. Some folks have even come all the way from his hometown, Mian Channu, to join in the celebration.
The airport is taking this seriously. There’s a lot of security, with police and airport security forces making sure everything stays safe and organized.
When Nadeem’s plane entered Pakistan’s airspace, even the air traffic controller got in on the excitement, giving him a special welcome and thanking him for making the country proud.
The airport has some special things planned for when Nadeem lands. His plane will get a water cannon salute, which is a way airports honor special flights. There’s also going to be a ceremony inside the airport to welcome him home properly.
This is more than just about sports. Nadeem’s win has brought a sense of pride and excitement to the whole country. It’s a moment that’s bringing people together to celebrate what one of their own has achieved on the world stage.
