Chairman Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that all the achievements of the PDM till date have been achieved from within the Parliament adding that if the Senate election had been boycotted, Imran Khan would have been celebrating getting a super majority in the upper house today.Talking to media on the sidelines of Livestock Expo-2021 organized by Sindh Livestock, Wildlife and Fisheries Department in Hyderabad, the PPP Chairman said that the option of resignations from the assemblies should be used like an atom bomb. But whatever decisions are made will be made by consensus. He said that the victory of PDM candidate in the election of Senate Chairman is in front of everyone, who got 49 votes, while the government candidate got 48 votes. “The manner in which the election of Chairman Senate was rigged is also in front of the whole of Pakistan, through which Sanjrani has been wrongly given a seat for some time, he said adding that we would approach the High Court on the issue of rejection of seven votes in the election of Senate Chairman.
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari pointed out that the Supreme Court had ruled in such cases in 2004 and 2007 that in case of ambiguity, the decision would be based on the will of the voters. “Therefore, we are 100% sure that the court will rule on the basis of justice precedence,” he added.
He said that PPP is a part of PDM and future course of action will be taken by consensus. The PPP Chairman said that if by-elections had not been held, the whole of Pakistan could not have been shown that the people were not with the selected and as a result of participating in both the phases of the Senate elections, fake majority in both the houses of government has been exposed.
PPP Chairman further said that by-elections and participation in Senate elections were the right decisions of PDM as now the majority of the government is also in danger in Punjab. Replying to a question, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the entire country has suffered due to the present incompetent, incapable and illegitimate government, but the agricultural sector has suffered gravely. “Onion and tomato growers in Sindh have suffered a lot due to anti-agriculture policies of the federal government,” he stated.
Asked by a journalist about the ongoing operation against encroachments, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that it was unfortunate to evict the poor in the name of encroachment. Such measures should be taken only if the victims have been provided with alternative accommodation.
He said that the PPP leadership and the people of Sindh did not want to hear that a meeting was held and there was some discussion on the issue in the assembly. Rather, they want the Sindh government to legislate in this regard and the houses of the poor are on the banks of drains or elsewhere they should be given legal protection.
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari further said that he did not want to upset any court, we want to obey its order, but no one’s house should be demolished till the exchange arrangements are made for the victims.
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the organization of Livestock Expo by the Department of Fisheries and Livestock is a good step, which is giving positive results for the development of this sector, adding that the Sindh government is making various efforts to create employment opportunities for the public in province and the ongoing expo of Livestock is also a part of such initiatives.
Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, Provincial Minister for Livestocks and Fisheries Abdul Bari Pitafi, other members of Sindh cabinet Nasir Hussain Shah, Sohail Anwar Siyal, Ismail Rahu and Murtaza Wahab, MPAs Sharjeel Memon, Jam Khan Shoro and other leaders were also present on the occasion.
