Bilawal describes Imran as 'failed selected PM'

Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said PPP will not allow the 'selected' Prime Minister Imran Khan and his government to take a u-turn on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Bilawal was addressing a mammoth public gathering at Muzaffarabad Azad Jammu and Kashmir on 52nd Founding Day of PPP, says a press release issued here on Saturday. He said Khan was a failed 'selected' Prime Minister who talked about democracy and freedom of expression in Kashmir but at home he tried to destroy democracy and gagged media. "Khan has also miserably failed to advocate the Kashmir issue all around the world. The PPP has Kashmir issue as its main agenda and will never compromise on Kashmir. The PPP will never surrender from the demand of right to self-determination for the Kashmiri people," he added. The PPP chairman said people, journalism and politics were not free in Pakistan. "There has been no legislation for the people in the assemblies. Terrorists' interviews are allowed to be aired but the interview of his father (former president Zardari) is not allowed to air. This government has taken employment from the people and price-hike has made the lives of the people hell. The economy of the country has been surrendered to international financial institutions," he added.

The investors have no trust on this failed government, adding it has also failed to collect tax. "We are an agriculture country but our produces are reducing." This is the failure of the government because this is an anti-grower government. Bail out are for the billionaires but there is no support price for the growers, no facilities for the students and young people in the government. Pakistan cannot afford anymore experiments. "Selected will have to go packing if we want a progressive and prosperous Pakistan." The PPP chairman announced that the martyrdom anniversary of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto will be observed in Rawalpindi where father and daughter were snatched from the people.
