'Benazir plotting for remarkable political comeback'

Washington, Aug 5: Former Pakistan Prime Minister and Pakistan People's Party chief Benazir Bhutto is positioning to get a remarkable political comeback, a Toronto daily reported.

"She is positioning herself for a remarkable political comeback, a high-stakes gamble aimed at making her, once again, the most powerful person in her notoriously volatile homeland," the Daily Times quoted the Globe and Mail, as saying.

"I find that I have very little time for myself and for my family," Benazir said.

Her prospects have never been better for a return to Pakistan, where she's seen by many as the best hope to restore freedoms and liberties to the country's besieged democracy, the paper reported.

She said, "There's male prejudice everywhere. Every working woman everywhere faces it, and I think, for us women, we just feel that we have to go the extra mile, work harder to prove that we're just as good as men. So, I work as hard as I possibly can."

"My father used to say that politics was a romance for him, a romance with the people of Pakistan. For me, politics was a duty, but now it has become a passion," she added.
