SHANGLA: Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, addressing a workers’ convention in Shangla, said that he is grateful to the jiyalas for conveying to the world that the valley of Shangla is alive with the slogan of ‘Jiye Bhutto’. “Today too, the jiyalas and brothers of Benazir Bhutto are steadfast on her ideology to complete her incomplete mission.”
“The country is riddled with woes, be it the heightened polarisation in politics or the economic crisis keeps on worsening. In this situation, the traditional politicians of the country are adamant about continuing the politics of hate, ego and division”, the party chairman said. Bilawal, addressing the people of Shangla asserted: “They have made politics a means of carrying out personal vendetta instead of letting it be a platform for difference of opinion. They have no interest in solving the problems of the people. The ever-increasing inflation, poverty and unemployment is the most important issue for my brothers and sisters, but the least for our fellow politicians”.
“The political parties of the country are not thinking of the people or the future of the country. I would like to convey to the youngsters and students of the country that it is the PPP that has helped the country emerge from deep turmoil in the past, and today too is the sole party that can provide ‘Roti, Kapra Aur Makaan’, all while considering poverty and price-hike its opponents, not other political parties,” Bilawal said.
“We have been fighting this war for three generations. We have learned how to be of service to the downtrodden masses through our elders, and this is our political training. We do not know the politics of name-calling, TikTok or Gate no 4.
The PPP chairperson said that he does not ask anyone for help but the youngsters, elders, students, farmers and labourers of the country to support the PPP and change the fate of the country.
“Just as the people have now witnessed all the politicians of the country, I too have seen them closely,” Bilawal said. “Their politics is deeply entrenched in hate and division. We have to introduce a new form of politics, with the people being the sole priority. We need to think about the progress of the labourers and farmers, not the elite class. The economy can no longer run just to benefit the elite, it has to benefit the poor.”, he remarked.
Bilawal added that he is the sole politician who has been doing politics since the age of 19 and added that he has served as the youngest foreign minister of the country for 18 months, and his hands are clean of any wrongdoing. –Agencies
