Bilawal Bhutto Zardari – son of late Prime minister Benazir Bhutto has got tremendous coverage by the media and with no doubt one can say that he is one of the most famous persons in town. But isn’t he too young to take charge of one of the ruling political parties of Pakistan? I don’t deny the fact that he’s brought up in the lap of his mother who was one of the finest politicians of all times in the history of Pakistan and that he is also trained by her. But Ms Bhutto also kept her children away from media and politics for such a long time. Just a teenager and going through the greatest dilemmas of his life i.e. his mother’s death, won’t it be a burden on his flimsy shoulders to give the chairmanship of a political party i.e. PPP?
I can actually relate to the feelings of three of them as I also passed through the same feelings when my mother died one year back when I was 20 and eldest of my 3 siblings. I can feel that how hard it is to think and believe that your mother is no more in this world and you will no more be able to talk to her and get her love and what is left is nothing but just memories on which you have to live your life ahead.
I hope and pray that he copes up with the situation as a lot of time with ones own self and with the family is required for the catharsis and healing up of internal wounds. May he also meet up with the responsibilities as the eldest son, brother and as the chairman of PPP.
May Allah bless Ms Bhutto’s soul, her family, her mourners and Pakistan. Ameen.
