Chandigarh, March 13

In a historic decision, Pakistan President Asif Zardari has decided to formally recognise his 31-year-old daughter Asifa Bhutto as the First Lady of the country.

Asifa, the youngest child of Zardari and Benazir Bhutto, studied at prestigious universities and made her political debut in 2020.

President Zardari announced the formal recognition of his daughter, Asifa Bhutto, as the First Lady of the country, ARY News reported, citing sources.

This will be the first time that a Pakistani president has announced his daughter for the position of First Lady, as normally the title is given to the President's wife.

This landmark move elevates Asifa Bhutto to the prestigious position of First Lady, marking a significant chapter in the nation's political history.

Sources claimed that President Zardari would declare Asifa Bhutto the First Lady of Pakistan.

After the official declaration, Asifa Bhutto Zardari will be given the protocol and privileges befitting the First Lady, ARY News reported.

This decision is particularly noteworthy as Asifa Bhutto is set to become the first daughter of a president to hold the title of First Lady. With ANI inputs
