KARACHI (National Times)- PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said Saturday his party was ready to back PML-N’s candidate for the prime minister’s slot if the Opposition is able to oust the incumbent government.<\/p>\n
In a press conference alongside party leaders in the port city, Bilawal said in a democracy, anyone having the majority can decide who becomes the next prime minister.<\/p>\n
“PML-N clearly has the majority; PPP and other Opposition parties are ready to sacrifice the prime minister’s seat for them,” the PPP chairman said, stressing the major stakeholder should announce its candidate for the office.<\/p>\n
“We plan on not repeating the mistakes we did in the past,” he added.<\/p>\n
PPP to launch ‘democratic attack’ against government
\nBilawal said that his party has decided to launch a “democratic attack” against the government and urged the other Opposition parties to adopt a unified stance of ousting the incumbent PTI-led administration.<\/p>\n
The PPP chairman ruled out opting for undemocratic tactics to achieve the goal of dismissing the government.<\/p>\n
Bilawal also advised PTI’s allies, especially the MQM-P, to join hands with the anti-government movement as the PPP is all set to begin its “awami march” tomorrow \u2014 from Karachi to Islamabad.<\/p>\n
“However, if Prime Minister Imran Khan decides to resign voluntarily, then there won’t be a need to hold the long march,” Bilawal said.<\/p>\n
PPP has no threats from a group of \u2018political orphans\u2019
\nSpeaking about PTI\u2019s Sindh Huqooq March, Bilawal said that the PTI leaders say that they have come out for the rights of the people of the province and hence, kick-started their march from Ghotki; however, they are the ones who did not give the farmers their due share of urea.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe people of Sindh will respond accordingly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Terming the march as a \u201cpolitical circus\u201d he said that PPP has no threat from \u201ca group of political orphans\u201d gathered in Sindh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
