Chain of
Federation

On
21st June 1953 Nusrat
Bhutto was honoured with a great
birth
At Karachi in Zulfiqar Ali
Bhutto’s home Benazir came on
this earth
Lady
Jennings Nursery School at the
beginning she attended
Her studies in Convent of Jesus
and Mary in Karachi were
commended
After spending two years at the
Rawalpindi Presentation Convent
To the Jesus and Mary Convent at
Murree she was sent
Benazir passed O-level
examination at the age of
fifteen
Also tried her best to obtain
lot of other qualities in
between
In
April 1969, to the United
States, Benazir Bhutto was
brought
At Harvard University’s
Radcliffe College admission she
got
Until June 1973 Benazir in
Havard University remained
From where a degree in political
science she obtained
Benazir was much interested in
getting high education after all
So immediately joined Oxford
University in the 1973 Fall
Was
elected based on potential and
with grace of God Almighty
To the Standing Committee of the
prestigious Oxford Union
Debating Society
In
the year 1976 more
qualifications were added to her
biography
Benazir graduated with
distinction in Economics,
Politics, and Philosophy
In
order to do one year
post-graduate course and to more
learn
Once again to Oxford in autumn
of 1976 Benazir did return
In
January 1977 not imposed by
anyone nor by any group selected
With overwhelming majority as
President of Oxford Union was
elected.
In
June 1977 Benazir Bhutto finally
to Pakistan came
Martial law was imposed after
politicians’ childish game
She
liked foreign service and
formally wanted to join
But Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto said for
her politics would be fine
Benazir Bhutto assisted her
father as an able advisor
Was lucky to have such a great
leader as her supervisor
People of Pakistan for decades
by Benazir Bhutto were
mesmerized
How popular she was, upon her
death the world was surprised
She
was a great woman with charisma,
intellect and beauty
Who served the country very
sincerely with a real sense of
duty
Her
qualities to rallies of people
could bring around
Wherever she went among crowds
of people was found
After Z.A. Bhutto’s judicial
murder PPP’s mantle she took
Each effort was made to suppress
the party by hook or by crook
Workers were lashed, hanged and
thousands were confined
Still they did not leave Benazir
but remained determined
But
Young BB to all her sufferings
put aside
In becoming source of strength
for PPP took pride
Unfortunately, Benazir Bhutto
saw one after another tragedy
She knew to transform oppression
and threat into opportunity
Whenever she came out of jail or
returned from exiles
People gathered to see her in
rallies of many miles
Benazir faced with boldness and
courage any exile or arrest
As a seasoned politician
successfully went through each
test
To
party internal matters she
impressively resolved
Due to her contributions it
further strengthened and
evolved
She
tried her best to personally
visit as the party head
Any worker suffered in struggle
of democracy or became dead
Was
needed by children as mother and
husband as a wife
For ensuring people’s rights
preferred even to give her life
Benazir’s performance as PM is a
bit difficult to discuss
Her hands were never free and
had to face a lot of fuss
Unless allowed to stay for five
years how could she contribute?
Due to certain forces, to her
policies, she could not execute
In
state of terror, dirty deals,
trafficking, failure and
fragmentation
Benazir Bhutto struggled day and
night for democracy restoration
In
all her public gatherings and in
any kind of tour
She voiced grievances of the
dispossessed and also poor
To
rescue nation from undemocratic
forces she would conquer
Nobody believed that due to this
her murder would occur
The
road to real democracy Benazir
Bhutto knew very well
Was full of many dangers at many
occasions she did tell
Who
cares in this world for
truthfulness and legitimacy?
At every step one may have to
face a new conspiracy
Benazir knew that in election
rallies she was quite vulnerable
In Rawalpindi speech her
confidence showed she was
invincible
Because of her belief ‘good will
succeed over evil’, she was
killed
Vacuum created by Benazir Bhutto
for long will not be filled
In
Garhi Khuda Bux in her twenties
to ZA Bhutto she buried
After Shahnawaz and Murtaza,
about her own death was not
worried
It
is a universal truth known by
all, not any kind of mystery
People who die for a cause are
remembered in golden words in
history
Twice prime minister of a muslim
country after all she was
And would not have been murdered
in this cruel way alas!!
The
killers have made her more
popular in this way
The whole world to her rich
tributes wants to pay
No
doubt Benazir was a symbol and
chain of federation
Perhaps it may not be that much
easy to digest her elimination
