Mrs. Bhutto proved herself as real life partner if we want see meaning of life partner then we can peep into her life because she walked with Z.A Bhutto in house-life and Political-life. When Z.A Bhutto entered in politics that time politics was only for men, after Z.A Bhutto, took part ladies in politics by his own home.
She was first lady who went grass-root level and collect women’s problem to present in United Nations, here we see; what was she? She was first lady, why did travel at villages and door to door? Only for gathering data of women’s problems and suggestions.
She could have ordered but she was not typical rich lady. She has sense of consciousness and importance of common people.

She introduced politics among women in Pakistan by her deeds.
After her husband Trail 1979, she fought with Dictator General Zia and condemned his ill-ruling. She lost her husband, two sons were exiled, one daughter imprisoned with her and second daughter sanam was moving here and there.

Those who already were wanting divided Bhuttos, they got beautiful chance and never gave them space for uniting.
Being a Mother, Mrs. Bhutto divided it was hard to decide for one even though Mrs. Bhutto supported her son.
Later, Begum Nusrat Bhutto got third time died body in her cradle Mir Murtaza Bhutto was no more, it was shocked for her.
After her son martyred, people have not seen again Mrs. Bhutto.Mrs. Bhutto lost her elder daughter fourth time.A lady who loved and given birth to children and seen them martyred.
What has this country done with her? This question always needs answer. Question is what has her family done for? Sadly, none of them have done any thing, recently daughter of Mir Murtaza Bhutto (Shaheed) Ms. Fatima Bhutto wrote letter to the Chief justice Iftikhar Ahmed Chuadhary where she requested to him to bring her grandmother to 70clifton.
Unfortunate, all are beating drum in fallen love her, none of them cover her life story or remember her in writings. Mrs. Bhutto is not only wife of late Z.A Bhutto.
She is lady who has given up her entire life her beloved and seeing her children in martyred.

Unaware of what horrendous things are happening to Quaid and her martyred husband ZAB’s Pakistan, Begum Nusrat Bhutto’s (March 23 is her 78th birthday) gaze is stuck on the horizon. One cannot read her mind. Though she appears overly blank but her once beautiful mien still retaining its noble grace—is full of tales that catalogue not only her eventful and yet tragic life and a catalogue of crimes and follies of undemocratic rulers that have scarred the pristine face of her country.

March 23 is a landmark day in the life of Pakistani nation—if at all a people fractured and divided by its rulers—can still be described as a nation. It is, indeed, a historic coincidence that in the year 1929 on March 23 Isphanis of Karachi were gifted by Allah, the Most Generous, with a daughter—Nusrat Khanum—who was chosen by destiny to be the great woman behind a colossus of man that her husband Zulfikar Ali Bhutto grew to be.

An Iranian Kurd by origin tracing her ancestry to the legendary Islamic hero, statesman and a great soldier Salahuddin Ayubi—Nusrat Bhutto was surfeit with compassion, grit, dauntless determination and courage from the days of her childhood. And her dynamism, love and care for humanity blossomed her into a young lady who would strive, seek and not yield at a challenging time when loads and loads of trains packed with refugees from India were pouring into Karachi in the aftermath of partition of the sub-continent.
