Remembering Benazir Bhutto’s Lifetime Achievements on Her 69th Birth Anniversary

by Anusha June 21, 2022
written by Anusha June 21, 2022
LEADHers

Benazir Bhutto is a name that history will always remember. Mother, politician, and former Prime Minister of Pakistan, today marks Bhutto’s 69th birth anniversary.

Throughout her lifetime, she had accomplished a number of achievements that not only profited Pakistan as a country but also set in stone the motion for women’s rights.

Despite the challenges and criticism, she received during her time in office, she conquered seats that many thoughts were impossible to achieve, one reason being that she was a female leader, which was quite rare in the golden days.

Adaptive-Tec

Nonetheless, here are her most celebrated achievements Pakistan will always remember:

First Female Prime Minister of a Muslim-Majority Country

Benazir Bhutto made history when she was sworn in and took an oath to serve the people of the country. She is the first-ever female head of a Muslim majority country, making her the 11th and 13th Prime Minister of the nation. She ran in office from October 1993 – November 1996.

One of the Youngest Chief States in the World

At age 35, Benazir Bhutto was one of the youngest chiefs of state in the world. She was the youngest until the anointment of Finland’s Sanna Martin at 34.

First Asian Woman to Serve a Term as President of the Oxford Union

At the mere age of 16, she started her studies at Harvard’s Radcliffe College. She graduated in 1973 with a major in BA for comparative political studies. She then continued her studies by commencing with a second degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Lady Margaret Hall. Moreover, she became the first Asian woman to serve a term as President of the Oxford Union. She is one of the handfuls of Pakistani Prime Ministers who have studied at Harvard.

Activist for Women’s Rights

Benazir Bhutto is an icon for women around the country. She not only became a symbol for young ladies, but she also proved that any platform, or seat can be yours, and any dream come true if you wish. She instilled the ideology that men and women are equal and should be treated the same. Today, because of her, many ladies feel empowered and are financially independent.
