Looking at the recent history of one of the historical party of

Pakistan which is full of tragic details in their history, another
big disastrous news to PPP followers falls when the most
functional and first former women PM Benazir Bhutto in
the history of Pakistan was murdered, when she was conducting
elections campaigns in 2007.
As we all already knows that BB was the daughter of Z.A
Bhutto and after his father death he raises his party until she was
exiled from the country. After her come back to the country in
2007, the followers welcomed her graciously but soon after her
return she faces numerous life threat. The saddened event
occurred on 11th of May when she was coming from airport
towards her house among her many followers, from there her
bad time started where her way was attacked by terrorist by
suicide bombings. In that place, her many followers died but she
survived. But when conducting an election campaign on 27th of
Dec 2007 she was again attacked but unfortunately she didnt
survived this time and the whole nation mourned her death for
several days. Soon after her death, Asif Ali Zardari declared
their son as the new chairmen of PPP.
The 2008 general elections in Pakistan which were
planned to be held in January were delayed until 18
February. The PPP won the significant triumph on among
all political parties in Pakistan, having a force of general
seats 121 from all provinces in the Parliament, at the same
time as the centre-right, Pakistan Muslim League

(N) secured second place, running to secure 91 seats from

country-wide. In 2008, the co-chairman Asif Ali
Zardari proclaimed to finish the fourth dictatorship when
he stated: "Pakistan was on its way of ridding dictatorships
forever", and plead to the PML (N) leader, Nawaz Sharif,
to outline an alliance scheming over half the seats in
Pakistan's 342 seat parliament.
Asif Ali Zardari and Nawaz Sharif officially signed the
agreement on this on 9th of March 2008.
Titled the PPP-PML summit declaration, the shared
declaration both parties decided on the restoration of
judges oust through the emergency rule enforced on 3
November 2007 by General Pervez Musharraf in 30 days
following the new federal government was fashioned. On
28 March, the PPP assigned Yousaf Raza Gillani as the
new PM and formed alliance rule with PML (N) in
Punjab, Awami
National
Party in KPK, JUI(F) in Baluchistan and MQM in Sindh.
On other hand, the PPP declared the private mandate
in Gilgit-Baltistan andKashmir. though, this pact was
afterwards was dishonored by PPP government, after
which PML(N) leaved from alliance and federal
government.
Asif Ali Zardari was nominated for the coming presidential
elections of that year by his party. After that he got 481
votes out of 700 and hence he become the President of
Pakistan.

On April 2010, president Zardari willingly give up his

political and presidential authority to PM Gillani and the
parliament, and during 18th amendment to
the Constitution of Pakistan, Zardari relocate the right of
government and political appointments, and powers to put
into effect the right of government to prime minister
Gillani as part of country's road to parliamentary
democracy. although rising disapproval, it has managed to
preserve a great vote bank in deeper Sindh and South
Punjab. On national front, it is currently competing
against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Pakistan Muslim
League (N). On 22 June 2012, the PPP nominated Raja
Pervez Ashraf was elected as the new Pakistan PM.
But it didnt ended here, the PPP government was badly
failed and due to this several protest and long marches
have been made.
