Bilawal questions month-long absence of PM  

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has forgotten about the Charter of Democracy (CoD).

Addressing a public gathering on Tuesday at Barnala Azad Kashmir on the occasion of slain Benazir Bhutto’s 63rd birthday, Bilawal said the parliament is given no importance in the country. He said that the country needs a prime minister like Benazir Bhutto.

He stated that the institutions of the country were suffering because Prime Minister Nawaz failed to work on the Charter of Democracy. PPP Chairman said that democracy exists by name in the country as the mode of governance is similar to monarchy.

He stated that Benazir made the impossible possible, adding that every aspect of her life was exemplary. He stated that his politics catered farmers, laboureres, youth and the depressed. He added that he shall soon visit other areas of Punjab, Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and Sindh.

He further stated that Pakistan cannot take lectures on peace from butcher of Gujarat, adding that if Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) succeeds in Azad Kashmir then it will appear to be Indian Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi’s victory in the region.

PPP Chairman questioned the month long absence of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif from the country.

“If Pakistan can survive for a month without a prime minister what was then need of this position,” he questioned while addressing a campaign rally in Azad Kashmir.
