PPP Chairman, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that the selected prime minister has mortgaged the country with International Monetary Fund (IMF) that had made the life of the people miserable. He was addressing a public meeting at Haq Nawaz Park, D I Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in connections with the mass mobilization campaign and elections in tribal districts.
The PPP chairman had already addressed a big meeting at district Mohmand and scheduled to address another one at Munda town of Dir Lower on Sunday. Bilawal Bhutto said the prices of the essential items have gone up by manifold and while making a taunt on the Prime Minister Imran said that neither peasants, nor traders or labourers are happy with the budget.
He said the anti-people budget has been passed through rigging as for the first time in the history of the country, the prime minister was absent to vote in favour of his budget. He said that instead of issuing production order of the two National Assembly from Waziristan the budget was passed through rigging. The PPP chairman reiterated the budget was IMF dictated which has relief for rich and hardships for the poor. The budget, he said has amnesty scheme for thieves and dacoits.
He said that before coming to power, Imran Khan makes tall claims of bringing change and making new Pakistan, but after coming into power it multiplied the economic problems of provinces. He said that KP has been denied the provision of an amount of Rs 40 billion that would have been spent on the development and generation of employment opportunities.
The PPP chairman said that unemployment is increasing, industries are closing down and all classes of society are crying, but the rulers are paying no heed to them. He said the puppet and selected prime minister is looking to the signal of umpire, which happened only in cricket as democracy is the name of the consent of the people.
Others who addressed were included former prime minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani, former chairman, Senate Nayyar Hussain Bokhari, president, PPP Central Punjab, Qamar Zaman Kaira, and president PPP KP chapter Mohammad Hamayun Khan. President, PPP Central Punjab, Qamar Zaman Kaira said that since the launching mass mobilization campaign, the government is making allegations that we are conspiring to overthrow the government that is totally baseless. He said that the PPP leadership particularly Bhutto family has rendered unprecedented sacrifices for the strengthening of democracy in the country.
He said that PPP despite reservations on general elections joined the system to give relief to the people and taking action against terrorism. However, he said puppet government took dozens of u-turns.
