Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari accompanied by his son Bilawal on Sunday offered prayers at the dargah of Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti and announced a donation of $1 million for the shrine.
 
"President Zardari prayed here...He announced a donation of $1 million for the shrine," Syed Zeeshan Kaptan, the Khadim or caretaker of the dargah, told. 
 
According to Kaptan, the father-son duo spent around 10 minutes at the tomb of the Sufi saint also known as Garib Nawaz, and recited verses from the pocket sized editions of the holy Quran they were carrying.
 
Both Zardari and Bilawal offered separate chadars at the shrine which they had brought from Pakistan. 
 
Both received gifts from the Khadim.
