The first female Prime Minister in Pakistan was Benazir Bhutto. She served two non-consecutive terms, first from 1988 to 1990 and again from 1993 to 1996. Bhutto was the first woman to head a democratic government in a Muslim-majority country, symbolizing progress for women's participation in politics. Her tenure focused on social reforms, including education and health care, as well as efforts to improve Pakistan's economy. Despite facing immense challenges, including corruption allegations and political instability, Bhutto's legacy as a trailblazer for women in politics endures. She was assassinated in 2007, further highlighting her impact on the nation's history.
