Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has announced that the people will not accept “selected raj (selected government)” anymore.
Addressing a public rally in Mithi, Bilawal said: “People bore selected raj for five years, but now any selected raj is unacceptable.”
Without naming any party, the PPP chairman said that people would respond to those who were getting their election results made while sitting in the room.
Slamming the PTI, Bilawal said people would answer those who attacked the state installations on May 9 in the upcoming general elections — slated to be held on February 8, 2024.
“On the other hand, we have friends, if they think that they will contest elections by copying the PTI, they will fail.”
He said: “People will defeat Mahengai-league on February 8.” The PPP leader further said that people will give a “surprise” in the next elections.
Addressing the rally, the PPP chairman hoped that “jialas (the term used for PPP workers)” would become prime minister and chief executive of Punjab this time.
Bilawal vowed to complete the unfinished mission of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto — who was hanged to death on April 4, 1979, in a murder case but his party terms it a “judicial murder”.
Recalling his family’s services to the people, Bilawal said that they have been struggling to eliminate poverty for the past three generations. The PPP empowered the farmers, peasants, and the poor, he added.
The PPP chairman vowed to double the salaries of the workers and introduce a “hari card” like the Benazir Income Support Programme card.
