SHIKARPUR, Dec 6: Pakistan People’s Party (Shaheed Bhutto) chairperson Ghinwa Bhutto said on Thursday that the country was facing a political crisis which could not be over come by Benazir Bhutto, the army or the US.

Calling upon the people to get united and launch struggle under an able leadership, she said that it was imperative to unleash people’s power to bring a change, introduce democratic system and restore fundamental rights.

Ms Bhutto was talking to journalists at the shrine of Sufi poet Budhal Faqir on the outskirts of Shikarpur city. She said that her party followed the mission of late Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Mir Murtaza Bhutto whereas Benazir Bhutto had forgotten the sacrifices of her father and brother and was playing power game.
