ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari said Monday that the time has come to right the wrong done to the society by dictators and their mindset.

Addressing the PPP office bearers and workers from Gujjar Khan, who called on him at Zardari House here, Asif Ali Zardari said that PPP always cherished its workers and the party had awarded a brave son of Gujjar Khan by elevating him to the post of prime minister during their tenure. He said that workers should remain ready to take more responsibilities.

Further, Zardari paid rich tributes to slain party chairperson Benazir Bhutto and said that she had struggled all her life to ensure fairness and justice in Pakistan, adding that narrow-minded people always opposed her in her mission.

He said that the youth would prosper when they have numerous opportunities of employment, while adding that peace would return to Pakistan when the education institutions start teaching the lesson of humanity to students.

He also said that PPP did not believe in politics of revenge. He said Nawaz Sharif was reaping what he had been sowing for decades, adding that the former prime minister had made the lives of the poor and downtrodden people in the country miserable.

Moreover, Zardari said that PPP had offered a young and able leadership to the country. PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari recently demonstrated his leadership qualities in front of the world and pleaded Pakistan’s case successfully in front of the west, he added.

The meeting was also attended by former Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, PPP Secretary General Syed Nayyar Hussain Bukhari, Senator Farhatullah Babar, Sardar Salim Haider and Raja Khurram Pervaiz.
