Talking to media persons here on Sunday, Khursheed Shah said despite inauspicious decisions made by the government, the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) will not create disturbance in the law and order situation through violent protests and politics of rampage. He said the PPP desires peace in the country and resolution of problems being faced by the countrymen. He said the party was ready to extend all support in this regard. The opposition leader said some elements wanted to revive the politics of past decades but the PPP was showing great patience in the larger interest of the country and its people.Khursheed Shah said his party had offered a lot of sacrifices for democracy, therefore it will oppose any conspiracy to derail it. “We want to avoid politics of ‘Go Go’ as it increases hatred among the masses affiliated with various political parties and often results in violence,” he said. “If the PPP had moved to the streets along with the PTI against the alleged rigging in elections, then what would have happened,” he questioned.The opposition leader expressed the hope that Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif’s visit to the US will be fruitful.He said that Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has now stepped-in in active politics and will lead the party to take it to new heights of popularity among the masses.
