KARACHI: The Chairman of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto has urged upon all political parties to avoid making controversial statements and demands regarding the appointment of the army chief during public rallies and gatherings.
Speaking to the media in Karachi during a program organised by Dow University of Health Sciences at Ojha Campus to celebrate 75 liver transplants, Bilawal said the appointment (of new army chief) should be made according to the law and Constitution while advising against politicizing the sensitive issue.
He alleged that PTI chief Imran Khan’s politics revolved around the appointment of next army chief, accusing him of doing “unnecessary politics” on the issue of COAS appointment.
He said none of the coalition government’s allies or anybody else should speak about such things in public meetings amid the prevailing economic situation.
