Publisher Description

Byline: Javed Ansari In her two stints as prime minister, Benazir Bhutto tried her best to dispense democracy to the masses but failed because on both occasions, her government was not allowed to complete its full tenure. Though corruption was one of the major hurdles that dogged her path, she was also stilted by the civil and military establishment that was averse to the laying down of any genuinely democratic political foundations in the country. Benazir often spoke of devolution but this never happened. The masses never really benefited from the fruits of socio-economic development within a democratic setup. Perhaps it was out of this frustration that she uttered the words 'Democracy is the best revenge."
