MNA Chaudhry Hussain Elahi and a large number of PML-Q leaders and workers attended the prayer ceremony for seasoned politician Chaudhry Zahoor Elahi on his 40th death anniversary marked at Zahoor Palace, Gujrat,

Former education minister Mian Imran Masood, MPA Abdullah Yusaf, and MPA Shujaat Nawaz, former Tehsil Nazim, and Saadat Nawaz Ajnala also attended the ceremony.

Speakers paid rich tribute to the late Chaudhry Zahoor Elahi for his contributions to the masses.

Chaudhry Hussain Elahi addressing the ceremony said that people were still supporting the family of Chaudhry Zahoor Elahi and a vast number of people still love Chaudhry Zahoor Elahi even after 40 years. He vowed to continue the legacy and style of politics of Chaudhry Zahoor.

He said Chaudhry Pervez Elahi, Chaudhry Shujat Hussain, Chaudhry Wajahat Husain are following in the footsteps of Shaheed-e-Jamhoriyt Chaudhry Zahoor.

PML-Q leader Ch Hussain Elahi said that Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif tried to remove the name of Chaudhry Zahoor Elahi but Zahoor Elahi’s respect could not be driven out from the people’s hearts.

Born on March 7, 1921, in the small town of Gujarat, Zahoor Elahi represented marginalised people and stood firm for the cause. He breathed his last on 25 September 1981.

He preferred politics for public service delivery to the job of a public servant. Zahoor Elahi played a pivotal part in the creation of Pakistan and had a love for Quaid-i-Azam.

He stood by Fatima Jinnah against Gen Ayub Khan. He braved fake cases, challenged dictatorship and draconian laws.
