Pakistan People’s Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Wednesday paid glowing tribute to the great poet, thinker and philosopher Allama Iqbal on his 139th birthday and urged the nation to follow the ideals of one of the greatest poet of history in the region to make country free from hatred, extremism and terrorism.
In his message, the PPP chairman said that philosophers and poets like Allama Iqbal were born once in centuries but they left behind the wisdom and sagacity for several generations to seek guidance and light from.
Bilawal said that his party was the true torch-bearer of the ideology of Allama Iqbal and founder of the nation Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah. “Our Party and the country have lost our most beloved leaders and elected prime ministers Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and thousands of their followers in the struggle for an egalitarian and invincible Pakistan that our founding fathers had imagined and envisioned,” he added.
He said that PPP’s four main demands for democratic accountability of corruption, terrorism, economic injustice, and foreign policy were in fact in line with the philosophy of Allama Iqbal because partial accountabilities and political victimisations in the name of accountabilities have created hatred and gulf between the provinces and their people.
Bilawal further stressed that the best way to pay tributes to Allama Iqbal was to pursue his ideology and thought-provoking ideals to make our country a model Muslim democratic country based on equality, justice and fair-play.
The story ends with PPP Shaheeds even if it is about cricket or foot-ball match. Did he ever read Bange Dara or Shikwa-Jawab Shikwa. He would not even know what these books are about.
