The awards were conferred at an investiture ceremony held at the Aiwan-e-Sadr which was attended by ministers, members of the diplomatic corps and family members of the recipients of the awards.

At a separate ceremony, the president also conferred insignias of military awards upon 42 officers of Pakistan Armed Forces.
