Apparently it's the day that Pakistan obtained independence as an Islamic republic. I'm sure it doesn't
need to be marked but I don't see the harm in doing so as an acknowledgement of the Pakistani community in Rochdale who might be observing such a day. And no I'm sure it doesn't, maybe if there was a sizeable English population in a major Pakistani town it might do. Or it might not, but I don't really see why that should prevent Rochdale from doing this if they wish.
