Sh has said that the PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari was the first leader who raised slogan “Taliban Ka Jo Yaar hai, Ghaddar hai”. And Our leaders sacrificed their lives for Pakistan, we lost Shaheed Benazir Bhutto because of terrorism. The PPP and its leadership was very clear right from the outset to defeat the scourge of terrorism. Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s unequivocal stance against terrorism and extremism right from the beginning was marked with clarity and the recent swinging of the public opinion and the rest of the political forces to his stand vindicated his vision that the evil could only be tackled by taking on the militants on their turf, she added.
She maintained that it was time to get united against terrorism and defeat this evil, otherwise they will continue killing our defenseless children while they learn.
Other who addressed the rally were Sohail Malik, Mian Abdul Wahid, Naseer Ahmed and others.
The candle vigil participants were carrying banners and placards bearing inscriptions “Say No to Terrorism”, “Stay United Against Terrorism”, “Raise Your Voice Against Terrorism”, and “Dehshat Gardo Ka Jo Yar Hai Ghdar Hai Ghdar Hai”.
The participants also chanted slogans against terrorists.
