The People’s Party has threatened to protest over the issue of not giving the date of the general elections, while the Election Commission has not yet reacted to the statements of the PPP leadership.
It should be remembered that earlier PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that we have the solution to public problems, while we will not sit with China until the election date is given.
Two days ago, former Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that when someone talks about constituencies, someone says that the weather is cold. “People see who is running away from the election and boycott those who are running,” he said.
