Second death anniversary of ex-governor Punjab Salman Taseer was observed on Friday.
Quran Khawanis were held in different cities for the departed soul. During condolence references the speakers paid rich tributes to Salman Taseer for his firm stance against fundamentalism.
It should be mentioned that Taseer was gunned down by his body guard, Mumtaz Qadri, two years ago in Islamabad for his statement regarding the blasphemy law.
He was 26th governor of Punjab and was appointed in General (Retd.) Pervez Musharraf era.
His son, Shahbaz Taseer, was kidnapped on August 26, 2011 and still not recovered.
Taseer was remembered as a modern and anti-fundamentalism person.
