The jobs in banks rose from 44, to we'll over 81, The deposits in banks increase three fold. Even after three floods the economy had showed resilience. The enterprise and trader merchant class has started to export in greater number.
All of the above with no aid from abroad. Abdullah You got it wrong. He had no hand in that murder. Nawaz Kasuri had been attacked 11 times already. Even during Ayub s time he had been attacked. It was his family land dispute and his brain dead son ahmad Raza kasuri's big mouth which was to blame. You killed the man, but his legacy lives on forever. Egalitarianism, secular values, and a robust constitution.
Successful nations all over the world have been built on such pillars, and as long as we continue to strive for the same, Bhutto's sacrifice would not have been in vain. He is the most brave leader in the history of Pakistan. My eyes went wet May God rest his soul. Abdullah, Yes same thing happened to Zia. He left in such a way. Even his body was not found after that plane crash. There is a lesson for all of us in that. Muhammad Farooq. ZAB may have made many mistakes but the manner in which his life was ended is a big question mark on our Judiciary and the military institution.
Noor Hussain. May his soul rest in peace. Harmony Everyone makes mistake and learn from it too. It does not mean that his other achievements may be shadowed. Abdullah Very True!!! Its a date of shame and utter loss this country has suffered - because this country has never grown to a Nation since then.
I feel grief for his followers. And what was his replacement! General Zia, whose contribution to Pakistan are well known. And just after ten years or so Zia ul Haque was no more. Let bygones be bygones - may his sould rest in peace. I always thought when I hear last moments of Mr Bhutto that where were his party people of that time why they let that thing happen. Mr Bhutto should get chance of fair trail and may be mercy for life but I felt his party workers let that thing happened.
I born same year so I dont know real story but I beleive Mr Bhutto could be saved by his party workers and other political figures of that time. Despite his brilliance and charisma, Bhutto did not focus on building Pakistan he seemed more interested in building his own persona and stature. I hope Imran learns from Bhutto and once he gets in Power he wont make the same mistakes. It reminds me of the second orchestration another time by Gen Musharraf in the all famous 'Tayara sazish case' successfully averted.
Yes almighty military plc. Maqsood Balouch. Story does not end there as Zia's ghettos were established allover Sindh, every day was a model town like incident. Sekhar, India. On Immediately after the conclusion of the cricket match, there was a hailstorm.
The winds were so strong that a two wheeler was thrown up to the first floor balcony of building in the North Delhi campus of Delhi University.
My self and my friend were waiting for the storm to stop. My friend told me that it is a bad day and that we are going to hear some very bad news. When I returned to my residence and put on the radio, there was the news that Mr. Bhutto has been hanged.
I felt very bad and did not have my dinner. May his soul RIP. Rajasekhar, Bangalore. Roti Kapra or Makkan the slogan never went real and he himself was deprived of it at the end. So chilling. And distressing. He did shady things during his time to undermine national institutes. His family could have honored his memory by doing something for Pakistan and guess what, they all turned out to be crooks like everyone.
Everybody blaming military for our troubles is ignorant. Whatever is left of Pakistan today is due to the military or else these so called savior of ours "politicians" would have sold every bit of Pakistan, not that they didn't try. What a shame we as a nation tolerated this judicial murder. The responsible judges should also be named and shamed. The most controversial political figure.
Despite being a major landowner he claimed to represent the rights of farmers and filled up his cabinet with other landowners and also industrialists who were - by his theory - representing the rights of labourers. He started the trend of fooling the masses by using popular slogans which unfortunately continues till today. Zeeshan Shamsi.
Adnan The decline which Bhutto brought in, set in. Haider Rehman. I think Karma happened to Bhutto. His selfishness broke Pakistan. The world broke him. As a Kashmiri who is born almost in the same year. This question keeps on haunting me that what lead to his execution. I tried to find various sources be it Line of Fire of Gen. Musharaf, Youtube and other sources. But one thing is sure he was a source of inspiration to my father's generation as they considered him as a hero.
If anyone can help me in sloving this question. In 90's Gen. Zia's death anniversary used to be observed and strike used to be called on 17th of August every year in Srinagar. Very confusing though. All the character of this times: Indira Gandhi, Sh. Mujeeb-ur-Rehman, Bhutto, later Zia and Rajiv Gandhi, met their fate in a violent death befitting their crimes. He was responsible for the breakup of Pakistan and for the religious divisions that haunt Pakistan today.
He was no patriot but instead a self serving Feudal Lord who brought Pakistan to its knees. President Ayub Khan was a true Patriot. The advancement that Pakistan saw during his rule has never been repeated again. He was the Cancer that Pakistan did not need at that time. The start of extremism in Pakistan. Bhutto paid the price of freeing army personnel from India. Bhutto negotiated release of so many captured foujis by India and this is what fouj gave him in return!
Bhutto had vision, the way he was bringing the Islamic states together, the way he tried to uplift the masses, the way he made the education for the poor, the way he made the nation smile even after the fall of Dhaka.
He was simply great. Nazir Ahmed. Not a good thing to be happened. They did it and someone celebrated. Demons of Pakistan. It defines what Pakistan is. After all these years we can be sure that the execution was purely a political affair. I repeat several comments here: Bhutto made several mistakes but our country has been in a continous decline after him.
No other political leader in Pakisatn can claim the leadership, Bhutto demonstrated. It is neither the time, nor the place to be pulling out old unfortunate events. We are going through a buffeting in our political period. Once we hit calm, that is the time to drag out all and everything. Honey Badger. They were ultimately pushed to the wall. Muhammad iqbal. I am also witness to the rapes of bihari girls at the hands of mukti bahini.
This was due to the dirty game played by Bhutto to keep Mujib out of power and to become Prime Minister of left over Pakistan. Posthumous trial of Bhutto will only do justice to those young girls whose lives molested and some of them still alive. Only ignorant will weep at this article. What a chilling narration of a sad event. This is probably a cold murder by the then dictators, in a way continuing the legacy of Aurangzeb in some way.. There were 43, uniformed personnel, including 30, soldiers.
Rest were civilians. It is the same kind of lie that there are more Muslims in India than Pakistan, ignoring what the Indian census shows. Fatimah Jinnah not only bagged the votes from East Pakistan but also from Karachi and other areas of Pakistan with majority.
He shifted capital from Karachi to Rawalpindi, it was also the beginning not only for separation for East Pakistan but also led to never settling problems in Baluchistan and Karachi. I am not belong to PPP but he was a great leader. His senseless steps of nationalization of the economy and confusing steps of implement Islamic socialism by declaring Friday as Public holiday were the worst steps taken by any ruler in the history of Pakistan.
In order to appease religious groups he got Ahmedis declared Non Muslims that triggered an unending violent movement against a peaceful and progressive section of society. To remain in power Bhutto took decisions which caused irrevocable damage to the social and political structure of the country. The brunts of this decision are still to be felt and fatally alienated the community in their own nation.
Dream of creating an Islamic ummah on the back bone of Saudi oil and Pakistani bomb. It remains a dream and Shah Faisal and Bhutto paid with their lives. And now it has turned into a nightmare! Go figure. Unfortunate and heart breaking. Those who praise Zia, see where we were in and where we stand now? He ruined our nation. Raj kumur Sindhu. Bhutto paid price of bringing 90, surrender solider from India, he did not understand establishment, he was not involved in Kasuri murder case, but corrupt General do not want to open E.
Pak break-down trial where all General involved. Zia was unqualified, his seniority is 11th number. If trial of E. Pak opened all general will come in trial.
ZAB is the greatest political figure in the history of this country. Had he not given the atomic capabilities to the country the situation of Pakistan would not have been any different than Iraq or Libya. He will always remain in my heart as a leader who cared for the common man and did not yield to oppression.
Even after 36 years of his death my love, respect and admiration for him has not diminished a bit. May God Bless His Soul. Saad No one must be above law. Why PPP government did not reopen his case? Kadir Khan. There was no option for deal to leave the country at that time, specially in If Bhutto would have good terms with Americans and Arabs, the punishment could have converted to life in imprisonment.
PPP leadership never maintained good foreign relationship in 70's or when Bhutto was in Jail. Iqbal Malik. I never liked this guy but we Pakistanis should be thankful for the atomic program he had started. Just think how India would treat us if we would not have atomic bomb.
History is replete with such stories. It's just that we would prefer to have a different ending for our own people! Najam Saeed. There is a lesson in this sad episode for all of us. Three leaders were involved in the creation of Bangladesh Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Mujibur Rehman, and Indra Gandhi in which tens of thousand or maybe hundreds of thousand people died.
All three of them had un-natural and tragic deaths. Very sad and unfortunate. Dr Siddiqui. Bhutto was a key figure in breaking Pakistan! Ayub didn't do anything for the country except of bringing Capital to his home. Altaf Raja. Sad it may sound, but it was for the good; Bhutto was no saint or statesman - he sowed the seeds that would weaken pakistan to what it has come to become today.
Shujaat Khan. He delayed the process to humiliate Pakistan Army. Nizamuddin Ahmad Aali. Bhutto was consumed in politics of power. He did have chance to think about Pakistan's poor class and some thing concrete like education and health. On the other hand, only God know what was he thinking when he nationalizes the industries and private schools. A myth goes around that people who were behind the separation of East and West Pakistan died of unnatural causes.
Bhutto got hanged, Mujib and Indira got murdered. But still a myth. I am not a Bhutto fan either - but I do know this. Pakistan was well respected during Ayub Khan's rule and the war and the aftermath was the start of where we stand today. Was it the Military's atrocities against East Pakistani's or was it Bhutto's greed for power and not letting Mujib Ur Rehman run the country, when he won the majority - I don't know.
It is unfortunate a country that had a promising future, ended up going downhill, just because of some bad and selfish decisions that our leaders made. I am surprised why there is no photocopy ever reproduced of the Jail Superintendent "Yar Mohammad"'s report?
It was a hand written report in Urdu and had 6 pictures of the last moments of Bhutto attached as well. This story has so many contradictions with that report, which should have been most authentic.
Very dark story. May God rest his soul in peace and also give some sense to his son in law. I can't understand why he is so important in Pakistan's history? What has he done for the country except he was part of the problem which made this country turn into 2. Bhutto is perceived as a great leader I was a school boy and was really excited to break the news to Pakistani friends who had not heard yet of Bhutto's hanging.
It seems like yesterday almost 36 years ago. Third Party. I feeling nausea What a death of democracy!! Well he was the leader who said "if we have to we will eat grass but we will Zak Really!! Very clever you are! Muhammad iqbal Bengali not Bihari..!! Not a small typo though!!
Honey Badger Thats what you read from history which is written by military leader.. Zak History teachs us lessons Zak. Zak So you are unable to control the east side as per your admission. Black spot on Pakistan Army and Judicial system will remain in the history. Sir: Dictator Zia had so much time to the save the life of this innocent man who was convicted on the basis of just one man's testimony uncorroborated by someone else, contrary to the law.
No wonder that Zia had just a few seconds as he faced death and no one could save him. Some one who was involved in breaking up Pakistan and is responsible of humilating Pakistani Army as Indian POW, should have no other fate then gallows.
A bone chilling story, but that's what happens in Pakistan when you make mistakes after mistakes. Even now people have mixed reactions except for these die-hards remembering him in romantic articles in the newspaper making the incident so big.
Bhutto family is a family of power hungry people ready to sacrifice their lives for no cause except for getting rich to enjoy Western styles living by deceiving the people of Pakistan with catchy slogans and empty promises.
We should never forgive the family for breaking up Pakistan and inventing sectarian-religious and ethnic based politics and giving us a dynasty of greedy and corrupt politicians including the family members and others who become rich like the leader of the current House of senate and the CM of Sindh.
Bhutto did thats who. Surinder Saini. Apr 05, am. Never read before but it appears to be cold blood murder of Mr Bhutto? May his legacy never ends and find peace by knowing that many Indians love him and his family. I am not sure from where do you get data but when I checked web last time, it was 90K soldiers and also Muslim population in India and Pak is almost same but in next years India will be having highest Muslim population in whole world.
Abrar agreed, it was badly managed right to the end, even though the East Pakistani public did not want seperation from pakistan. Read biography of mukti bahini commander Kamaluddin. Pakistan has been like the Roman Empire, one assassination after the other. There is nothing democratic about dictatorship.
Let us all hope that can change. I don't want to go into merits or demerits of Mr. Bhutto, however, one thing is beyond any doubt that his trial was not conducted in a fair and impartial way. Altaf Raja I agree with you.
Just wondering, what goes through a mans mind when he is told his journey of life ends in 5 hours. Its like, we will live but you get ready for the afterlife. Today king tomorrow nothing. No matter how high you fly no escape from mortality. Hell of a dark day and the black night that followed was no better.
Bhutto definitely had his faults, but with General Zia began an extremely harmful episode for Pakistan that has not ended till date. Zia introduced an extreme form of Islam, brought in scores of arms, dealt in heroine trade, and made the Army untouchable and corrupt. The monster that was Zia pretty much sent Pakistan back ages from which it has not been able to recover. And young student leader mujeeb ur rehaman stood up and said bengali is the national language in east Pakistan.
That was time Pakistan was divided. And those people who against division don't forget Pakistan created due to division of India. Bhutto was no hero of mine. But I felt so sad when his execution was announced on the TV and couldn't sleep all night. My heart went out to his lovely daughter Benazir. Shame on Zia and world leaders for failing to stop the execution. By the threat of cut-off all military aid, the US Prez.
Zia's end in a military plane crash along with other innocents like the US Ambassador should be viewed as a comeuppance. Even in a 1, years people will still remember Bhutto. Not because of any good or his vindictive nature or his arrogance while in power but because he did not deserved to be hanged for the crime he was convicted.
He surely made mistakes throughout his political career but it is a fact that he was one of the bravest, passionate and visionary leaders Pakistan ever had. May God rest his soul in peace. Honey Badger how good are other leaders.
Almost all are even worse. Riaz M M. It was a tragedy that a brilliant man's life ended in this manner but in reality it was a fight between two hypocrites in which one hypocrite Ziaul Haque won for few years and other Z. Bhutto lost for ever. However this event added another divisive factor to the Nation. Despite many conspiracy stories behind, Bhutto was a great leader not only for Pakistan but the Muslim world.
We didn't learn anything from this tragedy and lost whole Bhutto family. If he or his children would had the chance, Pakistan would have been at a different stage in the World forum. May we see the straight path. Syed Chishti.
A man who I knew from a distance but close enough to see his personality and style that no one could match in his surroundings. Widely revered by the mass of ordinary people, Bhutto was, to them, a world statesman who gave Pakistan confidence and respectability, a man who ensured, when he spoke, that other statesmen listened. He was a politician who broke away from the gentlemanly cabals of wealthy landowners and bureaucrats who had previously ruled Pakistan between military dictatorships.
Bhutto brought power to the people, campaigning in a western style. He promised food, clothing and shelter. He exchanged his Savile Row suits and silk handkerchiefs for baggy trousers and long Pakistani shirts, and he went electioneering in the bazaars and in remote areas previously shunned by his rivals. The people loved him. If Bhutto muzzled the press and sacked independent-minded journalists and editors, so what?
Contact us: admin newstracklive. Monday, Nov 15, News Track Hindi. Trending Now. Farmer Protest. Narendra Modi Live Updates. Today's Birthday Special. IPL By Harshita Jain. Feb 19 PM. Bengaluru: A horse and mare get married on valentine's day Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was considered to be one of the most powerful leaders of Pakistan. Girls take off their bra and hang it in this place to get desired life partner On 18 March , the biggest decision of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto's life came and the Lahore High Court sentenced him to death.
Man hired girl for slapping work! He had announced that general elections would be held within 90 days under Operation Fairplay. However, it soon became apparent that Zia had miscalculated the strength of the PNA, which soon got divided over joining the military government. He might not have hanged Bhutto had the opposition stood any chance of winning the polls under his command. When Bhutto was released and launched his campaign the writing on the wall was clear, both for Zia and the PNA. He was re-arrested and the campaign leadership fell to his wife, Begum Nusrat Bhutto.
To the utter surprise of Zia, she too drew huge crowds. Bhutto had hinted that if he returned to power he would punish those who had violated the Constitution, a reference to Article VI. Veteran journalist Mujeebur Rehman Shami, whose weekly Zindagi was banned by Bhutto during his government Shami was put in jail once told me that he was part of a group of the right-wing writers and journalists who advised Zia to postpone the October elections as they apprehended a landslide victory for the PPP.
They had met him in Lahore and requested him to postpone the elections. Zia asked us about the public opinion. We told him that the public opinion favoured the PPP and Bhutto. But we assured him that if he postponed the elections we would change the opinion in his favour. Thus, when General Zia imposed martial law, he immediately announced elections, saying that the army would return to the barracks after handing over power to the elected government.
