That Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has been trying to learn the ropes quite fast is a fact. He appears to be in a hurry. Talking to senior journalists and editors recently, the PPP chairman made a veiled attack on Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz supremo Nawaz Sharif. Answering a question, Bilawal said that a decision to return to the country would be taken by Nawaz Sharif himself. However, he added, the 'Altaf Husain model' and 'Ashraf Ghani model' would not be acceptable to people. The PPP leader, in my view, appears to have gone too far; he needs to come clean on what he actually wants to say about a former three-time elected prime minister of Pakistan. It increasingly appears that he is unfortunately lacking in polish and grace.
