KARACHI, Oct 26: Chairperson PPP (Shaheed Bhutto), Ghinwa Bhutto, has said that students have always played an important role in bringing about a change for the better in the society.

She was speaking at a function organized at 71 Clifton on the occasion of the joining of the People’s Students Federation (Shaheed Bhutto) by some office-bearers of the Muslim Students Federation.

She said that during the freedom movement, students under the guidance of the Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, had played an important role, and later again under the leadership of prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto when he launched a movement to free the oppressed people from the clutches of the exploiters in 1967.

She urged the students that they should show tolerance to other student organizations for peaceful coexistence with them in educational institutions. She said that by creating tension students provided reasons to the authorities to ban students unions.
