“Originating from Khunjrab, passing through Gilgit, Islamabad, South Waziristan, Quetta and Karachi the rally will culminate at Gwadar covering more than 3,000km,” the military’s media wing said in a statement.
“The routes/areas selected for the rally are relatively less visible, developed with extraordinary efforts and serve as seeds of prosperity for Pakistan,” it added.
According to ISPR, the Pakistan Motor Rally is scoped to cover the entire “length and breadth” of the country to “promote adventure sports, showcase tourism potential, cultural heritage and sports talent, network piecemeal and scant clubs dealing with the motor sports and to encourage vintage preservation in Pakistan.”
