KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairperson Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has once again criticized Prime Minister Imran Khan, saying that the premier should resign if he couldn’t provide solutions to people’s problems.
“Prime Minister Imran’s remarks that his administration was undergoing “training” for a good part of its first year were a “joke” with the country,” he said, while addressing the groundbreaking ceremony of the Malir Expressway project in Karachi.
Bilawal’s remarks come two days after Prime Minister Imran said that never should a new government come to power without doing its homework and without getting briefings.
In this regard, the PPP Chairman said, “What was he doing in KP for seven years if he wasn’t preparing [for the Centre]? How was the ’22-year struggle’ that we keep hearing about not helping in the preparation?”
Bilawal Bhutto further said that Imran had promised to ‘eradicate corruption’ in his first 90 days and end the country’s difficulties within 100 days. “Now after nearly three years, you are saying it was the training? This is a joke with the people of Pakistan,” he added.
“Prime Minister sahib, if you don’t have the solution to the people’s problems, then your only recourse is to resign and go home,” he added. The PPP leader said his party had the solutions and knew how to drive the nation out of economic hardship.
Talking about the expressway project, Bilawal said that it would be beneficial for the people, labourers and businesspeople of Karachi. “The projects carried out by the PPP across the country in public-private mode are more advanced than those of all other provinces and the federal government,” he claimed.
