[mukto-mona] Pakistan is the country that 19-year-old has to understand.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will leave day-to-day control of the party in the hands of his father Asif Ali Zardari until he completes his studies.

Here, readers share their views on the decision to cement the influence of the Bhutto dynasty over Pakistan's largest political party.

I think it's all quite ridiculous. He's just a kid. I am not politically inclined but I believe we need to sort out the basic problems in this country. This seems to make a mockery of it all.

At the press conference where his succession was declared, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari looked as if he had been told exactly what to say.

He cited his mother saying that "democracy is the best revenge". How can he say that after he has been appointed leader of this party? It's supposed to be the Pakistan People's Party, not the Bhutto party. It's not particularly democratic, is it?

He knows he is inexperienced and so the party has been left in the hands of his father, Asif Zardari - a man accused of all sorts of terrible things. I feel very uneasy about the future. Bilawal is not up to the task. Even if he does take control, he is going to be dictated to by his father and other party members. It is a family affair. I do not trust any of them.

Islamabad used to be a very nice city when I was growing up. We felt secure but now this country is deteriorating day by day. Life is so uncertain now. It is sad that Benazir Bhutto was killed but so many people die every day.

This is the country that 19-year-old has to understand.
