APC on crises soon. Bilawal Bhutto
Islamabad: Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that his party intends to call an All Parties Conference for adopting a cohesive national narrative for taking the country out of a slew of multiple crises.
Speaking during a consultative meeting via a telephone-conference with the Party’s senior leadership, the Chairman observed that an ignorant, disconnected, callous and arrogant Prime Minister who has little knowledge about the Constitution and its importance has declared the Constitutional powers of the elected Chief Ministers’ as dictatorial. He obviously has no idea of how a federation works let alone the significance of distribution of resources among the federating units.
Those who joined the conference call and shared their views include, Raja Parvez Ashraf, Senator Sherry Rehman, Syed Naveed Qamar, Maula Bux Chandio, Farhatullah Babur, and Dr Nafisa Shah.
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the disastrous policies and confused messaging of Imran Khan have allowed the pandemic to spin out of control and everyone is surprised that he appears adamant against a lockdown despite a huge surge in deaths due to the virus. “Prime Minister has openly ignored the warnings from WHO, health professionals and the Opposition,” he added.
He said that PTI government has pushed the country into a very dangerous situation by neglecting health and agriculture in the budget and warned that Imran Khan would be held responsible if locust attacks dragged Pakistan into a famine.
PPP Chairman pointed out that certain statements of Prime Minister Imran Khan show that he is not aware about the importance of NFC Award, questioning as to how a country will run when its Chief Executive is unaware of the importance of distribution of resources among the federating units.
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari expressed concern about Imran Khan’s statements against 18th Amendment and termed the same as an attack on 1973 Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
He exhorted the party leaders to play an effective role in exposing the incompetence of Imran Khan in front of the people and Parliament before he destroys everything this nation has built through the hard work and sacrifices of its people since independence.
