Benazir back in power

-

1993 - Benazir Bhutto was inducted as prime minister in a glittering ceremony attended by Pakistan’s top elite, including those who were instrument­al in her dismissal three years ago. Benazir scored a stunning 49-vote victory over rival Nawaz Sharif of the Pakistan Muslim League, who could muster only 72 votes against Benazir’s 121. As the votes were announced, Benazir went over to Nawaz to offer her sympathy and in turn received greetings from the man who had lost to her despite all his strength.
