LAHORE:Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari, in response to Ch Manzoor’s press conference, has said that the PPP should not bring its internal disputes to the media.
She remarked that politicising canal water has always been a practice of Sindh, whereas the reality is that the PPP must first determine whose water it is – Sindh’s or Punjab’s. She pointed out that PPP leaders claim to stand with farmers, but they should first verify whether the farmers support them. Azma questioned, “Can you not fight for Punjab’s rights while living in Punjab?” She emphasised that Punjab neither takes away anyone’s rights nor allows others to infringe upon its own. She asserted that Punjab has always played the role of an elder brother, and history shows that it has never been unjust to anyone. Azma suggested that instead of questioning Punjab CM, it would be more appropriate for the PPP to seek clarification from the President on this matter.
