Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) is observing a Black Day tomorrow Wednesday to mark the overthrow of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's elected government by General Zia ul Haq in 1977. Several events in this connection have been organised across the country to eulogize Bhutto. The party leadership and workers observe this day annually to pay homage to Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and to laud his services to the country, to democracy and to the poor. In his message, PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari said that July 5th is one of the darkest days in the history of the country and will be remembered as the Black Day for spawning militancy, sectarianism, tyranny and oppression on the one hand and systematic dismantling of the constitutional and legal edifice of the country on the other.
