No-confidence motion: When the 'bhao tau market is hot' to remove Benazir Bhutto from the PM's job It was a chilly morning

 No-confidence motion: When the 'bhao tau market is hot' to remove Benazir Bhutto from the PM's job It was a chilly morning on November 1, 1989, when members of the National Assembly of the Muslim League and its allies gathered on the lawn of the Punjab House in the hills of Murree, 40 km from Islamabad, the federal capital of Pakistan. 

The meeting was being held in the main hall of the Punjab House and the leadership of the Islamic Democratic Union (IJI) was in the seats and there was constant communication. 

 The focus of the meeting was Punjab Chief Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif, who seemed to be the most powerful and good coordinator. There was a clear reflection of his importance and authority on his face. 

 Outside the hall, a large group of journalists from the federal capital were present on the porch, while a few senior journalists and editors from Lahore were also present whom Nawaz Sharif used to call for consultations on such occasions. Siraj Munir, a member of Mian Nawaz Sharif's media team, also came from Lahore. It's hot. 

' The journalists present there applaud his comment. The background to all this talk was that the opposition parties had filed a no-confidence motion in the National Assembly against the government of Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto by the Islamic Democratic Alliance and now the government and the opposition have their own supporting members of the Assembly. 

 Was protecting so that the opposition groups could not control them. The atmosphere in Islamabad was similar. Benazir Bhutto was active in saving her prime ministership. NWFP Chief Minister Aftab Sherpao had "safeguarded" members of the PPP and its allies by first transferring them to a five-star hotel in Peshawar and then to Swat. 

 His action was a bit of a "surprise" for the opposition, as members of the government would be kept out of the reach of the opposition where access was not easy, something the opposition did not expect. 

 Senior journalist Azhar Sohail in his book 'The Age of Conspiracies' depicts the IJI's no-confidence motion against Benazir Bhutto and writes that the period from October 23 to November 1 is for both the PPP and the IJI. It was like a very difficult prophetic time. 

 When the no-confidence motion against the PPP government was submitted to the Speaker of the National Assembly on October 23, no one had any idea where the issues would go in a week. He writes: 

"Many members of the government had assured the dissidents that they would do their utmost to support the opposition in overthrowing the Benazir Bhutto government. 

Moo

 In this regard, some angry members of Sindh were being trusted and the fact is that the 'privileges' given to them by the IJI at the Intercontinental in Rawalpindi, if they had been provided by the PPP. 

 Say that a storm would come in the country. Innumerable members of the Assembly were taken to the Punjab government's rest houses and hotels in Murree. 

 On the other hand, the PPP members remained in ignorance and uncertainty till the end of time and their intelligence agencies kept giving them good reports, so they did not believe that such a movement would come or such a situation would arise. 

 But the movement came and the situation arose that once the PPP members also remembered the holiday milk. The ten days from October 23, 1989 to November 1, 1989 were a decade of Pakistan's political history that left a deep impression on the country's political history.

 As a young political reporter, I watched his steps closely. Despite the fact that Benazir Bhutto was a conspiratorial ruler with only a handful of people close to her wholeheartedly, her timely decision-making power and political savvy put her to the test. 

 Sheikh Rashid Ahmed, a member of the National Assembly from Rawalpindi and a no-confidence candidate from the opposition, had claimed that "we have won the election". 

 On October 23, when the Islamic Democratic Alliance, a coalition of opposition parties, filed a no-confidence motion in the 237th House with 86 members' signatures in the National Assembly Secretariat, the government's main ally Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) M) announced his separation from the government and support for the opposition. 

 Even then, the MQM claimed that no provision of the 'Karachi Agreement' had been implemented in eleven months. 

 MQM parliamentary leader Dr Imran Farooq and deputy parliamentary leader Dr Aminul Haq (current Minister for Information Technology) were present at the opposition leaders' press conference. 

 Interestingly, the 86 members who signed the no-confidence motion did not include MQM members.

 When Parliamentary Affairs Minister Khawaja Ahmad Tariq Rahim met MQM members of the National Assembly at the MNA hostel, he said that their decisions were made by the party's high command and that these days the high command was the MQM leader.

 She was dynamic and effective in the form of Altaf Hussain and Chairman Azam Ahmed Tariq. News of distribution of sweets in some areas of Karachi after breaking the agreement of MQM with PPP was also published in newspapers. On the same day that the no-confidence motion was filed in the Assembly Secretariat, Sheikh Rashid Ahmed, a member of the National Assembly from Rawalpindi, claimed, "We have won the election." Asif Zardari says "I bet the situation will be reversed" Opposition parties have stated they will not run in the by-elections.

 Four of the eight members of the National Assembly from FATA decided to support the opposition and four to support the PPP government. Benazir Bhutto announced that those who betrayed the party would be held to account, but she described the no-confidence motion as part of the democratic process and the democratic right of the opposition. He also termed the behavior of MQM as "regrettable".

 Talking to media, the Prime Minister's husband Asif Ali Zardari had said, "I can bet that the situation will be reversed." PPP sources were confident that the opposition would get a maximum of 102 votes in the no-confidence motion. These were very interesting activities in terms of maneuvering. On the one hand, the opposition was trying to break the PPP and its allies, and on the other hand, three members of the Islamic Democratic Alliance, Makhdoom Ahmad Alam Anwar and Ghulam Muhammad Ahmad Manika.

 And Raees Shabbir Ahmed issued a written statement disassociating himself from the signatories to the no-confidence motion. He asserted that his confession had been obtained through torture, and that his confession had been obtained through torture. On the other hand, Chaudhry Anwar Aziz of the Islamic Democratic Alliance also openly sided with the government, refusing to stand in support of a no-confidence motion in the House.

 It was not that there was peace in the government camps, there was also a fire. The most interesting case on the part of the government was that of Minister of State for Manpower Tariq Magsi who informed the government the day after the no-confidence motion was tabled during the crisis that he had been approached by the opposition to support the no-confidence motion. A Pajero, 20 million cash and a bank license. 

 An official statement said that Minister of State Tariq Magsi had demanded the appointment of a full-fledged federal minister, a Pajero car and Rs 20 million in cash to continue supporting the government. He also demanded an investment bank license and gave the government a 24-hour ultimatum to approve his demands. According to an official statement, the prime minister immediately fired Minister of State Tariq Magsi.

 Shortly afterwards, Tariq Magsi refused to relinquish his party membership and openly supported the no-confidence motion. Slogans of 'Jai Bhutto' on voting day Benazir Bhutto's government instructed its members of the National Assembly not to come to the House during the vote on the no-confidence motion, but to come to the House immediately if the motion fails and vote of confidence in the Prime Minister.

 Benazir Bhutto called the no-confidence motion a conspiracy against her government, but she ruled out the possibility of an outside hand. Interestingly, there were regular meetings and talks between gove

rnment representatives and opposition representatives. In which the rules of the game were fixed. 

 Representing the government under the chairmanship of National Assembly Speaker Malik Meraj Khalid, Iftikhar Gilani, Aitzaz Ahsan, Tariq Rahim and Ghulam Haider Wynne, Chaudhry Abdul Ghafoor and Sheikh Rashid from the Opposition participated in the talks. On this occasion, the negotiating teams also issued a message to the people to remain calm and peaceful in which they were appealed to stay away from the Parliament House, not to put up any posters and not to get emotional. 

 It was not that the United States had no interest at that time. The US administration has also issued a statement saying that the US House of Representatives will show confidence in it and the US administration will be happy to work with it. The National Assembly convened on November 2, with two members from each side delivering speeches and then voting.

 The opposition got 107 votes and the government got 124 votes. Slogans of 'Jai Bhutto' were chanted in the House. The moment when Benazir Bhutto joined the no-confidence motion. "Mr. President, I'm not a son." Explaining the reasons for launching a no-confidence motion against the Benazir Bhutto government, senior journalist and analyst Azeem Chaudhry said, But it was too late, Ghulam Ishaq Khan had become acting president and a permanent president was yet to be elected.

 "The country was ruled by the Establishment and some of the officials of the Establishment later said that the IJI was created by us. The people who formed the IJI thought that the anti-People's Party, Al-Haq had to collect votes in one place. He added that despite all this, when the results of the National Assembly came out after the general elections, the PPP had a few more seats than the IJI, but the PPP did not get enough seats in the Punjab Assembly that the government Could make "Under the constitutional situation at the time, the president had the power to nominate any member of the National Assembly as prime minister.

 It is imperative that the nominee for Prime Minister receives a vote of confidence from the House within 60 days. Azeem Chaudhry says that at the same time three US senators visited Pakistan and they also met President Ghulam Ishaq Khan, Army Chief General Mirza Aslam Baig and then a few days later Ghulam Ishaq Khan appointed Benazir Bhutto as the Prime Minister. 

 Nominated Benazir Bhutto was made clear on three issues that Ghulam Ishaq Khan, another Foreign Minister Sahibzada Yaqub Khan would be present in her team and thirdly that she would not be involved in the nuclear program. 

 Shortly after, Ghulam Ishaq Khan began to express that Benazir Bhutto was proving to be inexperienced and that the President had more experience in decision making in important matters of Pakistan than Ghulam Ishaq Khan. He started advising them on some issues at the non-governmental level. Meanwhile, in a conversation, he called Benazir Bhutto as his son. In response, Benazir Bhutto said, "Mr. President, I am the Prime Minister, I am not the son (Mr. 

President, I am the Prime Minister, I am not the son)." Benazir Bhutto: From 'Pinky' to the Prime Minister On a very hot day in June 1953, the members of the nursing home staff, including the family, were overjoyed at the birth of the baby girl at the Pinto's Nursing Home in Karachi. The father called his first child 'Pinky' and the mother 'Baby', but in the records of the institution, the name of the girl was recorded as Benazir Bhutto, which was named after the girl's (late) aunt. Was Benazir Bhutto's father, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, belonged to the elite. In 1943, he got married for the first time to Shereen Amir Begum and in September 1951, he got married to Nusrat Bhutto, an Iranian woman of Kurdish origin. 

 Nusrat Bhutto hailed from Isfahan, Iran, and graduated from Karachi University. Zulfiqar and Nusrat Bhutto had four children, including Benazir Bhutto, Mir Murtaza, Sanam Bhutto and Shahnawaz Bhutto. She then studied at the Rawalpindi Presentation Convent for two years, after which she was sent to the Convent of Jesus and Mary in Murree. 

 In December 1968, 15-year-old Benazir Bhutto passed the O-Levels examination with distinction. In April 1969, she was sent to Red Cliff College, Harvard University, USA for an undergraduate degree in political science. According to Brooke Allen's book "Forward Daughter", published in the United States in 2016, Benazir was too young to be admitted to the university, but the influential Zulfiqar Bhutto "shook the strings" and finally secured her admission to Harvard University. 

 John Kenneth Gail Braith, a professor of economics (and later the US ambassador to India) was appointed Benazir's mentor. Benazir found life in the United States very difficult, and according to the book, a university friend said that Benazir "spent most of the first semester crying.

" But then she became the social secretary of her hostel, Elite House, at Harvard, and, like her father, Benazir, who was interested in foreign affairs, was active in the campaign against US involvement in the Vietnam War at the time. 

 According to Shyam Bhatia's book 'Goodbye Princes' and Brooke Allen, published in 2008 by an Indian-born British journalist, it was during his Harvard days in 1971 that Zulfiqar Bhutto visited the United Nations on the Pak-India war issue. 

 When he arrived in New York to represent Pakistan at the Security Council, he invited Benazir there. Through such training opportunities, Zulfiqar Bhutto explained to Benazir the mysteries and secrets of foreign affairs. In 1972, Benazir Bhutto reappeared with her father in the Pakistan-India talks. 

 This time she arrived in India to attend the famous Shimla Accord ceremony, where she was introduced to Prime Minister Indira Gandhi for the first time. 

 This was the turning point of his political training under the constant guidance of Zulfiqar Bhutto when he got the attention of Indian media including radio and newspapers. 

 At such a young age, Benazir Bhutto herself made it clear in her own words that I was a symbol of a new generation. 

 I was born in independent Pakistan. That is why I was free from all the complications and prejudices that had separated Indians and Pakistanis as a result of the bloody tragedy and trauma of Partition of India.

 After graduating from Harvard in 1973, Benazir went to Lady Margaret Hall College, Oxford University in the United Kingdom to study philosophy, politics and economics, from which she was able to succeed in the second class.

 At his father's insistence, he also received a postgraduate degree in international law and diplomacy from St. Catherine's College, another Oxford University institution. According to Shyam Bhatia, she lived in Oxford as a traditional third world princess but also made many friends. According to some friends, she was a 'cheerful but curious' person. 

 In 1974, Benazir had the opportunity to meet with Muslim leaders such as Muammar Gaddafi, Anwar al-Sadat, Shah Hussein and Shah Faisal as she attended the OIC summit in Lahore with her father. 

 Higher education at institutions such as Harvard and Oxford and meetings with world leaders at an early age further enhanced Benazir Bhutto's political training. 

 In 1977, Benazir Bhutto was elected president of the Oxford Union. She was the first Asian woman to hold the post. Although members of the organization originally came from Oxford University, the independent body had nothing to do with the university. In addition, Benazir was active in the Conservative Association, a subsidiary of the Conservative Party, Britain's current ruling and conservative party. 

 Despite the traditional tensions between India and Pakistan (still), she kept in touch with Indian students during her student days at Oxford. According to Shyam Bhatia, at the same time, he was offered marriage by two Pakistani fellow students but both times he turned down the offer. After completing her education at Oxford in June 1977, she returned home with the intention of serving in the 'Inter-Provincial Council of Common Interests' set up in the office of her father and the then Prime Minister of Pakistan, Zulfiqar Bhutto, and the Pakistani office. She will also take part in the competitive examination for employment abroad, but politics and Pakistan's army ... Something else had been decided. On July 5, 1977, General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, the Chief of Army Staff, overthrew Zulfiqar Bhutto and seized power.

 Martial law was enforced in the country, and political leaders, writers, journalists, and intellectuals, including anyone who had the slightest suspicion of speaking out against the military or its seizure of power, were arrested. Can Zulfiqar Bhutto was also arrested but was released when there was a mass protest. When Zulfiqar Bhutto was arrested again on September 16, 1977, he sent Benazir's brother Mir Murtaza out of the country, but both Nusrat Bhutto and Benazir remained in the country. Zahid Hussain, the (former) chief photographer for Pakistan and Afghanistan for the British news agency Reuters, was close to the Bhutto family in the 1970s.

 Speaking to the BBC, Zahid Hussain recalled that when General Zia overthrew the Bhutto government, Nusrat Bhutto came to Clifton (the residence of the Bhutto family in Karachi) with her children. Delegations used to come there all the time to express sympathy and support. So many people came that it was not possible for Nusrat Bhutto alone to meet everyone. She wanted some people to meet Murtaza and Benazir Bhutto instead. One day when the delegation came, Nusrat Bhutto told me to call the baby from the library. 

 Only Bhutto used to call Benazir Pinky, otherwise Begum Sahib, all the members of the house, employees and we would also call Benazir Bhutto a baby. At the request of Begum Sahiba, I went to the library. She was sitting there reading a book. The camera was on my shoulder. She was surprised to see me coming so casually into this interior of the house. Obviously only family members could go there. He looked at me intently from top to bottom and asked (in broken Urdu) "Are you a photographer of equality?" 'isaid Yes... So she said that I am also very interested in becoming a journalist. Then she said, "Tell Mimi that I am coming."

 After the military coup, Zulfiqar Bhutto nominated Nusrat Bhutto as the party's co-chairman, and in October 1977, Benazir was appointed a member of the party's central working committee. This was the time when Benazir Bhutto emerged as the future leader of the party and became the most popular political face of the party. She and Nusrat Bhutto continued to organize demonstrations and protests against General Zia and whenever they had the opportunity to meet Zulfiqar Bhutto in jail. Hussain says that when Benazir met Bhutto in Kot Lakhpat Jail in February 1978, he called us (Zahid Hussain and Masawat reporter Inayat Hussain) and said that Papa (Zulfiqar Bhutto) had told him to start his visit to Sindh and see Masawat. 

 Take the people with you, then you have to leave in the morning. ”At that time, Qaim Ali Shah was the provincial president of the party in Sindh. He said that Bibi should not be in such a hurry. Even the people cannot be informed till morning. Similarly, the martial law authorities are arresting the workers. If the people do not gather then how can there be a gathering? ”According to Zahid Hussain, Benazir remained adamant on her program.

 "No, just go," Benazir said. When we went to Thatta, there were only 15 to 20 women in a house. After addressing them, they went to other houses and there were 30 or 35 people there. He gave a speech but was in a bad mood. Didn't eat well either. We took pictures of both the gatherings but Begum Sahiba called the office of Masawat not to give her much display, she is left now. 

 What will happen if something is said upside down? ”The editor (Khalid Alig) just posted a picture and the news was also published very little. When we arrived the next morning, the baby was very angry. One was a small number of people yesterday and now a picture and a little news in the newspaper. 

 When we entered, Qaim Ali Shah was also sitting in the corner. As soon as the baby saw us (with a big sarcastic satire in English) he said to us, "Come, my princes, come on ..." Come sit down (come, come my prince ... come sit). ”There was a sheet of equation.

 He picked it up, twisted it, made it into a ball and threw it at both of us. They said, 'Is this my status in your eyes? There is a picture, 15 girls are also standing with me. Did I go there to see the girls? ”Then came the time when the military government arrested Nusrat and Benazir Bhutto, and both were imprisoned in different cities. Zulfiqar Bhutto was tried for the murder of Muhammad Ahmad Khan Kasuri, the father of his political opponent Ahmad Raza Kasuri. 

 The Lahore High Court sentenced him to death and the Supreme Court upheld the sentence. On April 4, 1979, Zulfiqar Bhutto was hanged. Before the execution, Zulfiqar Bhutto asked both Nusrat Bhutto and Benazir to leave the country, but they both refused. Following the execution, Benazir and Nusrat Bhutto were again arrested for six months. Upon their release, they were placed under house arrest for another six months and were released in April 1980. In this most difficult practical politics, the hardships of incarceration and the harsh environment of martial law, the 'different attitudes and roles of one's own', along with Benazir Bhutto's strong political training, created the impression in her personality that she Proponents of her case have been working to make the actual transcript of this statement available online. Eventually, the mother and daughter succeeded in forming an alliance with several political parties in February 1981 called the Movement for Restoration of Democracy (MRD).

 Benazir's brothers Mir Murtaza and Shahnawaz Bhutto, who fled the country at the time of her father's arrest, allegedly formed an organization called 'Zulfiqar' to avenge the overthrow of their father during their stay in Afghanistan. And its affiliates included members of the PSF. 

 The organization took the path of armed struggle for resistance and on March 2, 1981, claimed responsibility for hijacking PIA flight PK-326 bound for Peshawar. Benazir Bhutto condemned the hijacking of the plane and a clear split in the party over Zulfiqar's politics, strategy and tactics became apparent until Benazir and Murtaza Bhutto came face to face. After the hijacking, Benazir and Nusrat Bhutto were arrested again in March 1981. Nusrat Bhutto was released in July 1981 after suffering from cancer, but Benazir remained in prison. He was imprisoned in Sukkur and Karachi jails and was sometimes kept in solitary confinement. These hardships of incarceration severely affected his health. In December 1981, his residence was declared a "sub-jail" and he was placed under house arrest, and an old friendship came to him. He was Peter Gail Braith, son of his mentor John Kenneth Gail Braith at Harvard, who was then attached to the US State Department as a diplomat.

 When General Zia visited Washington in 1982, Peter Gail Braith pressured General Zia from Rhode Island to support Benazir Bhutto through influential American politicians such as Senator Clay Bourne Peel and influential American jurist and politician James Buckley. 

 As a result, the government of Pakistan agreed to release him in January 1984, but after his release he was deported to Geneva. She arrived in London from Geneva, where she had previously undergone a head bone surgery. During the MRD movement, Benazir and Nusrat Bhutto were injured by a police baton charge during a protest, and the surgery was probably the result of which Benazir moved to a rented flat in the Barbican area.

 According to Brooke Allen, she suffered a series of traumatic events when she arrived in the UK this time around. They would jump at the sudden noises around them or disturb the people around them with the suspicion that no one was watching them. To overcome this state of mind, he started a series of meetings with friends, shopping, dinner and going to the cinema which proved to be really helpful. During her stay in London, Benazir's residence became the headquarters for exiled members of the party who kept the world informed of the "repression" of General Zia's government against political opponents. 

 She also became a central figure in the PPP, but there were still two obstacles to her being accepted as the party's leader without the participation of others. The other will be his own brother, Mir Murtaza Bhutto, who believed that Zulfiqar Bhutto's real political heir was not Benazir but himself. Senior PPP leader Farhatullah Babar says Benazir was very intelligent and that Zulfiqar Bhutto knew it.

 Bhutto had trained him and considered him as his political successor. Despite living in the traditional society of Sindh, he was sent out to study at an early age and his charisma was noticed. Bhutto did not differentiate between son and daughter and Benazir also proved that she was the one who deserved it. 

 Shahnawaz Bhutto's mysterious death Less than a year and a half after Benazir's arrival in London, she was shocked by the death of her 27-year-old brother Shahnawaz. Shahnawaz Bhutto, 27, was found dead in a mysterious situation in his flat in Nice, France in July 1985. Surprisingly, General Zia's government allowed Benazir Bhutto to bring Shahnawaz Bhutto's body to Pakistan for burial and she arrived in Pakistan in August for her brother's funeral but was arrested again soon after the burial in Garhi Khuda Bakhsh. He was placed under house arrest in Karachi. Upon her release in November 1985, she returned to Europe. Repatriation On December 30, 1985, when General Zia announced the abolition of martial law, Benazir Bhutto also decided to return home. 

 He has abandoned the political approach and compromised with the powerful army of Pakistan and the decision makers of the state. This was also the position of his brother Murtaza Bhutto. When Benazir Bhutto returned home on April 10, 1986 to be a part of the political process, she was given a lavish and historic welcome in Lahore which was attended by millions of people. After this illustrious reception and spectacular political victory, Benazir made stormy tours across the country and garnered tremendous political support but was once again arrested and imprisoned in Karachi's Landhi Jail. 

 When he was released, he started his political activities but at the same time he started a new life by marrying Asif Ali Zardari on December 18, 1987. According to the books written on him, it was an 'arranged marriage' and Asif Zardari Nusrat Bhutto was the choice. Meanwhile, as a result of non-partisan elections in Pakistan, Muhammad Khan Junejo was elected Prime Minister, but on May 29, 1988, General Zia dissolved the government of Muhammad Khan Junejo, including the National and Provincial Assemblies, in the wake of the Ojri camp tragedy.

 Had also been informed that Benazir was now 'pregnant' and the election was announced in November 1988 thinking that Benazir Bhutto would be in the very last days of her pregnancy and could not be more active in these elections. Will According to Shyam Bhatia, General Zia did not want Benazir to win the elections and reach the houses of power but General Zia himself was killed in an air crash near Bahawalpur on August 17, 1988 and after this accident the Supreme Court of Pakistan It was decided that the November elections would be held on a party basis. In September 1988, before the birth of Benazir Bhutto's first child and the current co-chairman of the party, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari It continued even after the birth of Bilawal Bhutto. According to world-renowned journalist and author Christina Lamb's book "Waiting for Allah", although Benazir separated from the MRD, she ran the PPP's election campaign and economic ideology in favor of the PPP's traditional (Islamic socialism) in favor of the free market. Deviating from the ideology of the British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher also tried to adopt the ideology of 'Thatcherism'. 

 But it was a sign of the party's popularity that the PPP received applications from more than 18,000 candidates in anticipation of a landslide victory. Under Sharif's leadership, a major political alliance, the Islamic Democratic Alliance (IJA), was formed. According to Shyam Bhatia, the Pakistani establishment, led by (then) ISI chief General Hamid Gul, also provided financial support to the anti-Benazir political alliance.

 But despite all these difficulties and reasons, Benazir Bhutto was elected the first woman Prime Minister of Pakistan on November 16, 1988. On December 2, 1988, Benazir was sworn in as Prime Minister of Pakistan for the first time. According to Brooke Allen, she was a ray of hope for Pakistan's intelligentsia, and so does Ghazi Salahuddin, a prominent Pakistani journalist and intellectual. Speaking to the BBC, Ghazi Salahuddin said:

 "For the first time that day, there was hope that Pakistan would now be on the path to enlightenment, progress and success." But some say that Benazir Bhutto, who was educated in the United States and the United Kingdom, was regularly called 'superstitious' by her critics for her regular visits to the shrines and courts of saints. Farhatullah Babar says that Benazir, like ordinary women, used to visit the shrines and courts of the saints regularly. 

 "It was not a sham or a political ploy. She used to attend these shrines and courts with great devotion and respect. According to her, Benazir had promised that if Asif Zardari was released, she would visit the shrine in Ajmer and she left. Farhatullah Babar also narrated an incident. According to him, "I had a very old relationship with Mustafa Shah, a numerologist. In late July 1990, Shah Sahib told me that as I was drawing the horoscope, on August 6, the star of President Ghulam Ishaq Khan was looking very high. You tell Bibi. "Probably when I met my lady on July 28 or 29, I mentioned to her that a scholar had given such a warning, so Bibi asked in real surprise, Reilly?" And then on August 6, Ghulam Ishaq Khan dismissed Benazir Bhutto's first government. The lady who used to call me FB instead of Farhatullah Babar specifically asked me 'FB! Who was it that warned you beforehand that something bad was about to happen? Now go and ask him what is next for me, what is going to happen now? 'Farhatullah Babar said,' When I met Shah Sahib again, I told him about Bibi's reaction. Shah Sahib also wanted to give me Imam Zaman for them. I told Bibi that Shah Sahib was giving 'Imam Zaman' for you, I don't know if you believe or not, then he rolled up his sleeves and showed me that Imam Zaman was already tied on my hand. However, photojournalist Zahid Hussain's conversation shows that Benazir did not have much inclination towards religion at an early age. 

 According to Farhatullah Babar, Benazir Bhutto was a very God-fearing and well-mannered man. That (General Zia's son) contact Ijaz-ul-Haq. Ask them out well if they are no longer absorbed in the connection. Ask if General Zia's family wants to bury him in any special place except Faisal Masjid. ' Farhatullah Babar said that she was a poor man. Ordinary workers could approach them. When someone approached them, they would hug the women in torn old clothes and it was not a show off, they would meet people from the bottom of their hearts. When you pretend or act, you know. 

”He said,“ It wasn't that Bibi didn't care about her personality. As an interpreter when I would write his speech in Roman. So think a lot, one word, one sentence, continuity, fluency, everything. She used to do homework. Once in my written speech came the word 'however' which must have been difficult for them. She tried to prepare for a while but then a time came when she got angry and stood up angrily and in the same rage said to me 'FB! What is ten, however? However. 

”Then she threw away the papers I had picked up and she walked away in a state of extreme boredom saying,“ I don't have time now. I can't do it now, however. ”I picked up the papers and left. In the evening they sent me a silver cup as a gift and sent me a note with an autograph on one of their pictures. According to Farhatullah Babar, Benazir was very convinced of respect for women and private life. 

 "Once someone told them in front of everyone that someone was spreading the wrong thing about them in a very rude way, then one of the people in the party told Bibi that we have videos of the person who is insulting. ۔ He spoke about the videos three times. The first and second time, Bibi remained silent, but the third time, she scolded the video speaker and said, "Do you want someone to enter your bedroom?" Would you like it? ”Murtaza, Nusrat and Benazir But their critics also raise the question of why they snatched the party from their brother and mother if they were God-fearing. Mir Murtaza Bahan, who was deported in September 1977, did not return even during her first term.

 Pakistani officials have accused Mir Murtaza of being involved in terrorist activities, including the hijacking of a PIA plane. On the other hand, the struggle for political inheritance between Mir Murtaza and Benazir continued in full swing. Murtaza Bhutto, Benazir and Asif Zardari were accused of deviating from party ideology as well as corruption. On August 6, 1990, President Ghulam Ishaq Khan fired his government over similar allegations of corruption and nepotism. But Benazir Bhutto became the Prime Minister of Pakistan again in the October 8, 1993 elections. 

 On October 18, 1993, when Murtaza Bhutto returned home from his home constituency of PS31, Larkana, after being elected as a member of the Sindh Assembly, he was arrested on terrorism charges. When he was released, he used to openly criticize Murtaza Bhutto, Benazir and Asif Zardari in an attempt to consolidate his political power over his sister. Be it a press conference or a rally, Mir Murtaza never stopped sharply criticizing Benazir's policies, style of politics and alleged corruption. 

 Only then did the hardline elements of the party develop the idea that in fact Mir Murtaza should be the political successor of Zulfiqar Bhutto. This internal political conflict became so intense that even Nusrat Bhutto herself put her weight behind Murtaza Bhutto and continued to support Murtaza Bhutto instead of Benazir. 

 As a result of the same infighting within the party, on January 10, 1994, Benazir Bhutto finally succeeded in removing her mother from office and was elected party leader herself. Farhatullah Babar says: "There is no doubt about it. It is 100% true that Nusrat Bhutto's tendency, weight and liking were all towards Mir Murtaza Bhutto but when Nusrat Bhutto was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. 

 When there was a problem of memory due to, the question arose in the party that what will happen if the condition worsens? Therefore, at the suggestion of some objectors, BB became the chairperson. Some people had no objection to Mir Murtaza becoming the head of the party but some people also had objection so this progress was made. Farhatullah Babar also claimed that in the last days, Murtaza Bhutto also started approaching Benazir Bhutto.

 Were and she was very happy about it. Murtaza Bhutto once came to the Prime Minister's House on a child's birthday. When they started to go back, Bibi herself went out to see them off. Bibi was very happy when they left. By the way, she used to call me FB, but that day she took my full name in her emotions and said, "Oh, Farhatullah ..." IM Absolutely Delighted (Farhatullah, I am very happy today.) You will believe that Murtaza came to my house. 

 We had such a great evening. According to Farhatullah Babar, Benazir loved herbne slippers and head covering. Even Nusrat Bhutto was devastated when she did not recognize him once because of Alzheimer's. Bibi even entrusted me with the task of recording her mother's memoirs, saying, "FB, take your time, ask them all, spend time on tea over food and record their memory." Whenever she remembered Zulfiqar Bhutto, her eyes would get wet
