"""""""""""It seems we tend to be bit forgiving to people after their slaying, who apparently had controversial histories while alive, like BB, Zulfi Bhutto, Zia ul Haq, Saddam and recently Imran Farooque. """"""
Barrack....your comments in the start nice but in end u made injustice with BB and ZAB...they were sincere Pakistani and they have worked for Pakistan. zab given power to pak army and air force is no.1 now and he given to nation a atomic power and every Pakistani is proud on him that how he torn a while paper in UN office and how he wanted Muslim to gather in one plat form. I think again u will go to talk about Bhutto’s response for Bangladesh which was not in hand to deliver power to mujeeb because in democracy every one has right to boycott so he did it and it is not bad thing and Bhutto was not president that time to deliver power to mujeeb and power was with Ge.yahya khan who has to deliver to mujeeb not Bhutto so that is mistake of establishment not Bhutto.
Well you are talking about BB you have never seen manifesto of BB how she was sincere with Pakistan and democracy despite thousands conspiracies against her by establishment, opposition.
Contributions of Z.A. Bhutto & Benazir Bhutto for welfare for people and provinces as mentioned above that they did not done thier duty in thier areas...
Z. A. Bhutto played a key role in establishing a quota system with 60%-40% rural-urban distribution
He Helped to open seven or eight major institutions in Sindh (including Khairpur University, Chandka Medical College, Nawabshah Engineering College, Nawabshah Girls Medical College, etc.) thereby substantially increasing educational opportunities for Sindhis.
He eliminated age restriction for some of the higher civil service and foreign service jobs and offered some of these opportunities Sindhis. About 20 or Sindhi academicians, lawyers, and intellectuals were appointed in those jobs.
Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto participated vigorously in creating awareness among Pakistanis that Sindhis were being pushed into in poverty and destitute. His famous words that “The fate of Sindhis have become like Red Indians in Pakistan and are being pushed to live in rural reservations” still serves as a reminder to Sindhis to re-energize themselves and never allow that to happen.
Although PPP under Benazir Bhutto had only two short stays in power under the careful watch of the Pakistan military,
