LAHORE- (Pakistan Point News- 4th April 2019) The PPP has finalized arrangements for the 40th death anniversary of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto which will be marked today.

The main event to remember the former prime minister and founder of the party will be held at Garhi Khuda Bakhsh where a large number of followers of Bhutto and supporters of PPP are expected to gather.

According to media reports, strict security arrangements were made at Bhutto mausoleum and around 7,000 cops were deployed around the site.

PPP is organizing a gathering on the event which will be addressed by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari and other party leaders.

Bilawal already led a train march in different cities in connection with his grandfather’s anniversary. At a time when he and his father were facing corruption charges, the PPP is expecting a large gathering on the event to convey a political message to those elements whom the party considers are behind the ‘political victimization’ of party leaders.

According to media reports, a good number of PPP workers have already reached Garhi Khuda Bakhsh to pay tribute to their leader. The party has arranged welcome camps in different cities of Sindh.
