General Ziaul Haq
General Ziaul Haq was a military ruler of Pakistan who led the country from 1978 until his death in a plane crash in 1988. He came to power after overthrowing Zulfikar Ali Bhutto in a coup and implemented significant changes in Pakistan's political and social landscape, including the introduction of Islamic laws. Zia's regime was marked by repression of dissent, but also by efforts to modernize the military and economy. His rule profoundly affected Pakistan's political trajectory and is often remembered for its authoritarian measures.
