Last week, Senator Usman Kakar was laid to rest after a historic funeral at his hometown Muslim Bagh in Balochistan.
I was among the tens of thousands of people who attended his funeral prayers; it was an experience that left me awed and humbled.

Usman Kakar’s funeral was an extraordinary event and, in my opinion, was the perfect testimony of his stature and the love and respect he commanded.
