Asifa Bhutto Zardari All Set For Debut in PDM’s Multan Rally

WEB DESK: After the assassination of ex-Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, the offspring of the assailed premier were introduced in politics with Bilawal Bhutto Zardari being the first and Asifa Bhutto Zardari likely to be the second.

Asifa Bhutto will make her official political debut in the Pakistan Democratic Movement’s (PDM) rally in the city of saints, Multan, on November 30.

Although, the organization of the public gathering is still uncertain owing to the mounting confrontation between the government and PDM in connection with the rising infection rate during the second wave of coronavirus, particularly in Multan.

The day would also be the 53rd foundation day for PPP where the party leadership has decided to introduce Asifa Bhutto officially into politics on the occasion.

Meanwhile, Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) Vice-President Maryam Nawaz has also announced to participate in the Multan rally despite that the family is still in a state of mourning after the death of Begum Shamim Akhtar, grandmother of Maryam and mother of Nawaz Sharif.

However, the top male leadership of both opposition parties including PPP and PML-N will not attend the rally in hype.  PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari and Chairman Bilawal will not be there as the former is ill and later has contracted novel coronavirus.

Further, the Opposition Leader in National Assembly (NA) Shehbaz Sharif and Opposition Leader in Punjab Assembly, Hamza Shehbaz, will remain absent from the gathering too as they are out of jail on paroles.
