22nd June 1966: After resigning from Ayub khan’s cabinet as a foreign minister Bhutto sahib decided to go to Lahore by train. He had no proper idea what he was supposed to do, except that he has quit Ayub’s regime. What troubling him now was whether it was the end of his political career or something is going to be happened, but what was it nobody knew not even him. The journey was pretty calm and peaceful He was unaware of the climax of his life waiting for him, the good fortune was knocking on his door.
When the train reached Jhelum a big noise waked him up it was the clamor of the crowd waiting for him on the station and most of them were students when Bhutto reached the gate of the rail car the entire place echoed with “Zulfiqar Ali bhutto Zindabad”. That was the time when people were dying to see the enchanting personality of Bhutto those were the overwhelming moments the history was being written. From Jehlum to Lahore there was bulk of students in every station waiting for him to support him to tell that whatever circumstances come we are with you.
Whenever Bhutto Sahib comes back to his compound after meeting his supporters a TT informs him that the crowd has been waiting for him even since when he started the journey from Pindi. The time duration of the ride from Pindi to Lahore is of six hours but it took that train a day to reach Lahore and when the train arrived at Lahore seventy thousand people received him that was the biggest and warmest welcome ever!!
This journey was the one which made Bhutto sahib the Leader, the revolutionist, the incredible, Quaid e Awaam Leader of the Nation. It is considered as an emerging moment of him and then the charisma of Bhutto started spread everywhere, in a small span of time he gained a rapid support. Whatever He says people used to listen because He was their men, their voice their leader. That is how the leaders are made by deeds not by words. The much time Bhutto sahib lived he lived for his men his country. People loved him not because he was stalwart, wealthy handsome but He was the one who gave them Roti, Kapra or Makan.
This nation needs nothing but food, shelter and clothing. If you only give us these basic necessities you can easily conquer our hearts you can rule. Bhutto is the triumph card which is still used by Pakistan People Party that he is not even here anymore but his legacy wins PPP the mandate to rule.
But one should remember that no matter what you do, the time will come when the suppressed will scream!! The time will come when this nation will gather in every corner of the country and demand that provide us Roti Kapra or Makaan ager Bhutto zinda hai tou!!
agreed.. no one can replace him in ppp... present ppp sucks!!!
