ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari Saturday said that the PPP would contest the upcoming general elections on the slogans of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto as the PPP was the only party which wanted resolution of the problems of people.

“We will contest the next elections on the original slogan of the PPP – Roti, Kapra aur Makan,” he said.

He said that the people did not care why Nawaz Sharif was ousted but they wanted resolution of their issues and eradication of poverty, unemployment and terrorism from the country.
