Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Patron-in-chief Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has appealed to people to pray for peace, tranquillity and brotherhood in the country in their Friday prayers and discourage those elements which are out to “tear apart nation’s unity by fanning sectarianism”.

In a press statement, Bilawal said the PPP had always stood for an “egalitarian Pakistan where Islam is our religion and we will fully defend it from being taken over as hostage by gun-toting extremists”. He further said that the state of Pakistan is responsible for protecting the life and property of every citizen and the country should not be allowed to get infested with narrow-minded extremism which had already caused much harm to Pakistan. Bilawal said the government should ensure through its administrative powers that no loudspeaker in the country spits venom against any sect, faction, group or any individual. He said spreading hatred and hate mongering is a weapon mostly used by disintegrating, anti-peace and anti-unity forces.
