Sending selected packing is a victory of workers, says FM Bilawal

KARACHI (Dunya News) – Foreign Minister and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said on Saturday that sending the selected packing was a victory of the die-hard (jiyalas) party workers. 

Speaking to the party candidates for the local government elections in Karachi on Saturday, he said that despite facing difficulties, the PPP saved the country in the past and would continue to save it in the future.

While taking a dig at the former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman, Bilawal said that the politics of Imran Khan has damaged the country’s economy and democracy but the PPP doesn’t believe in politics of hatred.

“The truth will prevail whenever there is contest,” he said and added we toppled Imran Khan’s government through no-confidence motion and this was the victory of the masses.

He said the country is passing through difficult period but we will steer the country out of this difficult phase. 

The PPP chairman went on to say that the jiyalas will defeat Kaptan whichever constituency he would contest elections.

Bilawal said that Imran Khan kept them calling imported government but in fact, he (Imran) imported terrorism and introduced the politics of hatred in the country.

The PPP chairman said that PTI MNAs were imploring for not accepting their resignations. He said that in fact, they were escaping from elections.

He said that the next mayor of Karachi would be of PPP.

LG elections were delayed and postponed many times at the eleventh hour, he said adding that jiyalas would foil all conspiracies and win LG elections.

He informed that they would expand solid waste management set-up across the province and directed that the common men should be provided cheap fares facility adding that PPP bus service would be expanded across the Sindh province.

Bilawal said they would pull the country out of the crises by following the vision of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto.

Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah addressing the ceremony said that Karachi was termed the worst city in terms of law and order situation in the past but now no terrorist can halt the city.

The former government announced Rs1100 billion for the city but it did not give even 11 rupees.

He further said that PPP jeyalas would transform Karachi into the best city as it was in the past.

PPP Sindh President Nisar Ahmed Khuhro said that PPP had fielded its candidates for the first time in Karachi for LG polls.
