Addressing workers at a ceremony in Islamabad, he said the issue of Faizabad protests must be deliberated upon by a judicial commission, Express News reported.
The statement came hours after Supreme Court expressed dissatisfaction over performance of intelligence agencies and law enforcement agencies during the nearly three-week-long sit-in by a religious group at the federal capital’s Faizabad Interchange. At least six protesters died, while more than 200 people – including protesters and law enforcers – were injured in the ‘botched’ clearance operation by the capital administration.
“We need to learn from our mistakes and weaknesses to determine the future path,” said the PPP chairman, adding that the last few days were not ideal for the country’s youth as they saw the state kneeling down before the agitators.
Terming the events that led the entire country to a halt as unfortunate, Bilawal said the government’s writ had eroded and rule of law was being mocked.
“… we want to see democratic system flourish in the days to come,” he said. “I want to see the government completing its tenure and that elections being held on time.”
