“On the eve of 36th martyrdom anniversary of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto I ask the democracy loving people to rededicate themselves to the ideals of democracy and to take forward the collective march to empower the people and make Pakistan strong and prosperous”.
This has been stated by former President Asif Ali Zardari in a message on the eve of 36th martyrdom anniversary of the Party’s founding chairman today.
To take forward the mission of empowering citizens I urge the people to freely and fearlessly choose their representatives in the forthcoming local bodies’ elections and thus carry forward the process of empowering power at the grass root level, he said.
Paying tributes Mr. Asif Ali Zardari said that Shahhed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto gave the nation the gifts of, among other things, a unanimous democratic Constitution and peaceful nuclear program that strengthened national defense.
“This twin legacy of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto must be protected at all cost it will be”, he said.
“Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto not only awakened the people but also gave them hope. He made the people of Pakistan realize that they alone were the fountain of all political power and that power does not from the barrel of the gun. It is this realization that has not permitted dictatorship to take roots in the country. Indeed Shahhed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto stands tall as a beacon of light, hope and inspiration for the people”.
No one can rob Shaheed Bhutto of his great achievements in the cause of the people and the country, he said.
The former President said that Shaheed Bhutto left deep footprints in history. He strode on the national scene like a colossus. It is a measure of his greatness that while the killers of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto have been consigned to the dustbin of history, he lives in the hearts and minds of the people, he said.
“On this day I ask the democracy loving people to rededicate themselves to the ideals of democracy. On this day let us also pledge to continue our forward march to empower the people and make Pakistan strong and prosperous”.
