Will use all powers to remove PTI govt: Bilawal

LAHORE: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said his party will use all powers to bring an end to the ‘incompetent’ PTI led federal government.

Addressing a press conference in Lahore today, Bilawal the PPP would continue giving a “tough time” to the PTI-led government, adding that Pakistan was in worse condition as PM Imran and his ministers failed to deliver.

Bilawal noted that contrary to the impression given by the PTI ministers, leaders of his party, the PPP, did not want any concession or any NRO.

“Imran Khan is not willing to come in front of the opposition,” the PPP chairperson said, adding that PM Khan is the first leader to have failed in evolving national consensus regarding the Kashmir issue.

“If Osama Bin Laden is a martyr then what is your stance on Zarb-e-Azb (operation), Swat Operation, and the APS attack,” Bilawal asked.

Bilawal Bhutto further criticized the PTI-led government and said that the incompetent rulers have ruined the lives of masses.

The incumbent government has nothing done for the country, instead of giving employment they have increased the burden of inflation on masses, he added.

He further said that due to the flawed policies of PTI-led government the country’s lower class was suffering, adding that the government was creating problems for the labor class.

The government has not taken any step to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, he said, adding that the healthcare workers in Punjab should be provided risk allowance.

He said the prime minister had not met with doctors or the medical staff however, only met the rich people, he added.

The PPP chair said Pakistan was facing unprecedented challenges but it could be seen in the budget that education, health, and unemployment had not been given any priority.

“According to the Auditor General’s report, within a year corruption worth Rs270 billion was done,” said Bilawal adding the PM should provide accountability in this regard.

“The sugar commission was also an NRO, which was given to Buzdar, Tareen and Asad Umar,” he said.

Bilawal said each of the government’s policies seemed to be based on the principle of NRO. The PTI-led government was exacerbating the crises as it had failed to deal with them in an appropriate manner, he added.
