Bilawal vowed to continue the mission of Shaheed Bhutto. He said one Bilour will be martyred many Bilours will emerged. One Malala will be attacked, there would be many more Malalas to fight for their rights.
He pointed out that one Benazir will he martyred, many more Benazir will be emerged.He said Bhutto is a name of mission, passion and Bhutto will be emerged from every house.”Our path is the path of democracy, which is difficult, and this was taught to us by Shaheed Benazir Bhutto who could not led down the flag of people of Pakistan”, he added.

Bilawal said in this path, “we have to live with honour and with dedication.”He said today’s democracy was brought by the PPP and added that every one has to protect it.The Chairman PPP said today the parliament is independent in making its decisions, the provinces are free and more independent, and the people are the real source of power.He said 1973 constitution has been restored in its original form. “We will lead to a prosperous future of Pakistan as it was the dream of Shaheed Benazir Bhutto that every women has those rights which the women at international level are enjoying”, he noted.

He said starting from domestic disputes to property disputes, the government has taken a number of legislative measures to resolve these disputes for the empowerment of the women.Bilawal said, “Roti Kapra and Makan” is the slogan of the PPP in the past and even today.

Bilawal said his grandfather was hanged, his mother was martyred, but the PPP leadership did not leave Pakistan. “We have to save the country from the cruel elements,” he added

He said the PPP was a strong wall against terrorism while on the other hand opponents even did not talk about the menace.The PPP Chairman, while referring to the pending case of murder of her mother Shaheed Benazir Bhutto, said the PPP workers were still waiting for the final decision.The PPP workers are also waiting the verdict on the Bhutto Reference, he added.Bilawal said the courts were taking notice of the issues like prices of electricity, sugar, CNG and other such cases but the most important cases of Bhutto Reference and giving sentence to the killers of Shaheed Benazir Bhutto were still pending.He said the PPP workers were peaceful and looking towards the courts for justice.The Joint Investigative Team and the United Nations have submitted their reports about the murder of Benazir Bhutto, but the court’s final decision is still awaited, he added.
He said some elements were still working against the democratic system and they had not learnt lesson and using various methods to destablize the democracy.
Bilawal, however, vowed that the caravan of democracy would not stop.
He said “Jiay Bhutto slogans will never end. I promise that the PPP will not allow any dictator to snatch the rights of the masses and allow terrorists to succeed.”He said, “We were not afraid when there was an attack on GHQ. Even when Benazir Bhutto was martyred, we raised the slogan of ‘Pakistan Khapey’.” We never left the country and would remain forever, he added.

Recalling the last words of Benazir Bhutto, he urged the people to make a pledge to follow the mission of Shaheed Benazir Bhutto.He finished his address with raising slogans “Jiay Bhutto, Jiay Benazir
Bhutto”.
