LAHORE: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Thursday said his party would restore the belief of the Baloch in democracy.
He was talking to PPP workers from Balochistan. Bilawal lashed out at the Balochistan government for being more loyal to ‘Takht-e-Raiwind’ than the people of the province.
The meetings are part of the party’s 49th foundation day celebrations week being observed in Bilawal House at Bahria Town. Hundreds of workers from various parts of Balochistan attended the workers conference while a cultural troupe with traditional Balochi instruments and costumes also performed after Bilawal’s address. Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari also attended the musical event.
Bilawal said that leaders from Punjab gave some statements but nobody mentioned the province’s share in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and implementation on the National Action Plan (NAP).
The PPP chairman said that some politicians from Balochistan were engaged in backdoor deals with Nawaz Sharif, adding that decisions taken had been concealed from the people of Balochistan. He said that the government in Balochistan was more loyal to ‘Takht-e-Raiwind’.
Bilawal added that the party would be organised in Balochistan up to Tehsil level. He pledged that he would appoint a Baloch chief minister in Balochistan after 2018 general elections under a new progressive agenda. Former prime minister Raja Pervez Ashraf besides leaders and workers of PPP from Balochistan addressed the workers conference.
Meanwhile, Bilawal interviewed candidates from three districts, including Quetta, Gwadar and Loralai.
