It became the official capital in 1967. Islamabad means 'place of Islam'.
The capital was not moved directly from Karachi to Islamabad; it was first shifted temporarily to Rawalpindi in the early sixties and then to Islamabad when the essential development work was completed in 1966.
14 Aug 1967 Islamabad becomes the capital of Pakistan.
Islamabad is a modern planned city, it replaced Rawalpindi as the capital in 1967
