KARACHI: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairperson Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on Sunday said that the ‘selected’ and ‘puppet’ incumbent government has plunged the people into poverty.
He also reiterated that the PPP will begin its planned long march against rampant inflation from February 27.
The PPP chief’s remarks came on World Social Justice Day where he stated that ensuring social justice was the “key to make the country peaceful, progressive and prosperous”.
He added that social justice was the cornerstone of PPP’s ideology and struggle.
“We [PPP] are working to empower the weaker sections of society, including women,” he said, emphasising that the decisions of the PPP government had enabled the weak and vulnerable to dream of a better future.
Bilawal further claimed that his party would continue to be a powerful voice for “silent citizens”.
