Chairman Pakistan Peoples' Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has lambasted former premier Nawaz Sharif, saying that he doesn't even understand the meaning of ideology. While addressing a public rally in Abbotabad, Nawaz Sharif had claimed that he is not a person but an ideology. Bilawal said that Nawaz is an opportunist who keeps changing his position and statements every now and then.
"Nawaz Sharif doesn't understand the meaning of ideology. You can't change your position for your own purposes," he said while attending a wedding ceremony of party's secretary information Ch Manzoor Ahmed's nephew. He said Nawaz has been a part of all conspiracies against democracy in Pakistan. "Nawaz Sharif is a threat to democracy," he added.
He said the party is working hard to strengthen democracy. Earlier in the day, sources informed that Pakistan People's Party co-chairperson and former president Asif Ali Zardari has, yet again, refused to meet Nawaz Sharif, foiling the latter's attempts for a meeting for the fourth time within three months. Zardari, rejecting once again the possibility of any contact with Nawaz, was quoted by sources as saying that the former prime minister "only remembers democratic promises where his interests are concerned".
