Islamabad May 29: Pakistan Peoples Party CO Chairman Senator Asif Ali Zardari here Thursday announced that the PPP government will provide residential plots in Islamabad and government jobs to the families of those PPP workers who lost their lives in two terrorism incidents in the twin cities.

He was addressing a meeting of the families of PPP martyrs at the Zardari house here on Thursday. The meeting was organised to pay tributes to the PPP workers who lost their lives on December 27th, 2007 in Rawalpindi when a terrorist strike resulted in the Shahadat of Mohtrama Benazir Bhutto and around 24 PPP workers lost their lives in that incident, in another incident on July 17th, 2007, 18 PPP workers lost their lives when a suicide bomber hit the PPP camp established to welcome the then deposed Chief Justice, Iftikhar Chaudhry.

Senator Asif Ali Zardari while saluting the sacrifices of the PPP workers said that the party had great regard for its workers and understands that they are the real strength of the party. He said that PPP's history is full of those brave
men and women who have laid down their lives for the greater cause of democracy.

He said that PPP's fight is for taking revenge on a system that is unjustified to the weak, poor and downtrodden and our revenge will be in the shape of changing this system. He hopes that the history will bear testimony to PPP's success in taking such a revenge.

Senator Asif Ali Zardari said that some people were mistaken in their perception that PPP's strategy reflects some kind of weakness on its part. "We believe in thinking about the long term impact of our policies and reforming the state structure instead of sloganeering alone", he added.

He said that Mohtrama Shaheed's loss was an unbearable one and she could not return to us now but she had left a message in her demise for all workers of PPP and that was to follow the path which she led in her life. He promise with PPP workers and their families that he was ready to fight for the cause of the people in whether he live or embraces shahadat in following this course.
