Born in Nawabshah on July 26, 1955, Zardari, who remained the country\u2019s president from September 9, 2008 to September 9, 2013, had raised the slogan of Pakistan Khape (Long Live Pakistan) after the assassination of former prime minister and his spouse Benazir Bhutto in a gun and bomb attack in Rawalpindi on December 27, 2007. At a time when there was despondency all over the country and some people were playing the \u2018Sindh Card\u2019, his slogan came as a sigh of relief for majority of the people who wanted the federation to remain intact. DNA<br \/>\nWhile he was head of the state, he handed over powers of the president to parliament; was a driving force behind the passage of 18th Amendment, which delegated more powers to provinces. He is also credited with the launch of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).<br \/>\nPaying glowing tributes to the former president, PPP leaders as well as parliamentarians have called him \u2018King of Pakistani politics\u2019.
