LAHORE: The PML-N leadership has paid tribute to former prime minister Benazir Bhutto on her death anniversary.

“I have neither forgotten the sudden and traumatic death of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto nor the pledge we made to strengthen democracy and civil supremacy. I live to strive for the day Pakistan becomes a true democracy, Insha Allah. SMBB, may you rest in eternal peace. Ameen,” tweeted PML-N quaid Nawaz Sharif.

PML-N Vice-President Maryam Nawaz tweeted: “Lots of prayers for Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto on her death anniversary. I still remember the sad day when my father and everyone in my family mourned and grieved like a member of our family had left us. May she rest in peace and Allah’s mercy, Ameen.”

Opposition Leader in the Punjab Assembly Hamza Shehbaz said Pakistan lost a democratic leader in a tragedy.

He said Mohtrama’s contribution for democracy and country would be remembered forever. The Charter of Democracy signed between Mohtrama Benazir and Nawaz Sharif would be implemented.
