ISLAMABAD (APP) - Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that Madar-e-Jamhooriat Begum Nusrat Bhutto was a metaphor of compassion, patience and courage, who never hesitated to sacrifice for the sake of Pakistan’s democracy and the people.
In his message on the 12th death anniversary of Begum Nusrat Bhutto, Bilawal paid tribute to Nusrat Bhutto, saying that Madar-e-Jamhooriat was a visionary leader who led a historic movement against a dictator to restore political and democratic rights to the people of Pakistan.
“After the judicial assassination of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, as long as health allowed her, Begum Bhutto continued to fight for people’s rights and never sat down silently for a single day,” he added.
“Madar-e-Jamhooriat’s values and struggles are a beacon of light for us. She will live forever in our hearts and history,” Bilawal said, and urged that today, on the occasion of Begum Nusrat Bhutto’s death anniversary, “we must once again pledge that we will continue to fight for the rights of the people with the same courage, determination and independence that Madar-e-Jamhooriat fought for”.
