Bilawal Bhutto to rescue AJK people from oppressors: Aseefa Bhutto

Muzaffarabad: Pakistan People’s Party leader Aseefa Bhutto Zardari on Saturday said her brother Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, the PPP chief, would rescue the people of Azad Jammu and Kashmir from the “oppressors”, as she commended the people of the valley to vote for her party in the July 25 elections.

While addressing an election rally in AJK’s Muzaffarabad, Aseefa said her party had issued a people-friendly declaration this time and sworn that PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari would fulfill the expectations of the Kashmiri people. “Bilawal will work for Kashmir’s prosperity,” she said.

She condemned Prime Minister Imran Khan for “allowing” India to retract occupied Kashmir’s special status. “Some people came here today and made tall claims, but where were they when Narendra Modi attacked Kashmir,” stated the PPP leader.

Aseefa said Bilawal would “fulfill the promises he has made”. “If you want peace he will work for peace, if you wish for war, he will follow your directions.”

The PPP leader commended the people of Kashmir to upkeep Bilawal just like they braced her mother, former PM Benazir Bhutto, and her grandfather, former PM Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.

“Kashmir is close to my heart, and I will never forget the love and respect the people gave to me here today,” she added.

PPP had established the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) and Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation in Sindh, said Aseefa.

“Benazir Bhutto had stated that our blood would fall where the sweat of Kashmiris falls,” she added while reminding that the roads were laid in the tenure of PPP.

The PPP leader said PPP established six universities in the district, comprising medical colleges in Muzaffarabad, Mirpur, and Poonch and if the people of Kashmir give them another chance, they “would serve them again”.
