Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Patron-In-Chief, Pakistan Peoples Party said labour and working classes are the engine of progress and prosperity of any nation that is why People’s government always infused confidence into working classes and encouraged them to play the pivotal role in nation-building.

In his message on the International Workers Day – May Day -, he said PPP is the only Party in the country which drew widespread support from the labour and working classes in Pakistan as there was and is no other mainstream political party representing them directly.

He said that PPP had always made labour and workers as partners in all state enterprises under the Benazir Stock Option Programme and treated them equally while formulating economic policies. Labour Unions and Collecting Bargaining Agents in government and private business and production houses were introduced by Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and promoted by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto to create a vibrant working class for the good of the country.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari urged the Peoples Labour Union leaders and workers to redouble their efforts to unite the working class to safeguard their rights. “Personalisation in the name of Privatisation of profit-making state units shall be vehemently opposed and the interests of labour class will not be compromised at any cost,” he pledged.

PPP Patron-In-Chief saluted the toiling masses and peasants on International Workers Day and asked Sindh government to introduce policies for the better working conditions and extended benefits for them.
