MUZAFFARABAD: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has asserted that it was a tragedy for Pakistan, the country that saw the likes of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, now has a ‘selected’ prime minister, who has weakened the Kashmir case.

The PPP chairman expressed solidarity with the Kashmiris during Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM)’s public gathering in Jammu and Kashmir’s capital Muzaffarabad today (Friday).

“History will remember, that when there were genocide conditions in Kashmir, when Kashmir was attacked and the entire region was turned into a jail, our prime minister, said that ‘what can I do?” Bilawal remarked.

Further criticizing the prime minister, he said that Imran Khan who calls Modi a fascist today is the same who prayed for Modi’s victory in elections. “This kind of incompetence not only threatens the freedom of every Pakistani but also that of every Kashmiri,” he added.

“Only an elected representative and democracy in the country could respond to Modi — not through fascism,” he added. The PPP chairman said the premier had claimed of becoming Kashmiris’ ambassador, however, for now, “he was just Kulbhushan Jadhav’s ambassador”.

Bilawal said that PM Imran and his Indian counterpart were on the same page. “He keeps reiterating that he won’t give an NRO to others, however, he is trying to give an NRO to Kulbhushan Jadhav,” he added.

He declared that PM Imran will soon step down, adding that the “puppet government [will not be] allowed to trade away your rights or destroy the economy”.

Lauding the Pakistan Air force, Bilawal said, “Our brave pilots shot down the enemy’s airplane, but our prime minister sends back the prisoners of war after serving them tea.”

“If the Kashmiris are left to decide about their future, they would have selected to be free. Kashmiris have been fighting for their freedom throughout their lives, and now, they will not permit the ‘selected’ to curb their freedom,” he concluded.
