Pakistan Peoples Party leaders gathered at the Governor's Annex in Rawalpindi to celebrate President Asif Ali Zardari's 70th birthday. Governor Punjab Sardar Saleem Haider Khan served as the chief guest while former Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf joined the festivities. The officials cut a ceremonial cake and offered prayers for the president's well-being. Party workers attended the event in large numbers to honor their leader.
Governor Khan credited Zardari with maintaining Pakistan's democratic system through his political expertise. He noted that party unity stems from Zardari's effective guidance since Benazir Bhutto designated him as her successor. The governor recalled how Zardari promoted the "Pakistan Khappay" message during difficult periods following Bhutto's death. He expressed belief that Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will become the nation's next Prime Minister. Khan highlighted Zardari's fourteen trips to China during his presidency as strengthening bilateral relations between the countries.
