ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan People’s Party Wednesday questioned the PML-N about the whereabouts of the narrative of “Respect the Vote” with asking where has the narrative gone and said that it seems that Nawaz Sharif has left behind the narrative of ‘Respect the Vote’ in London.
“The People of Pakistan will not accept the selection this time as the people of Pakistan are demanding free and fair elections, not selection,” said Secretary Information PPP Faisal Karim Kundi while addressing a press conference here Wednesday with PPP’s media coordinator Nazir Dhoki.
Kundi said on February 8 the people will decide who to vote for as the people of Pakistan will not accept any selection or ‘Selected Raj’. “After February 8, the PPP will see the numbers game and decide to form the government,” he said, adding that PML-N makes institutions controversial but the institutions are neutral.
He said the army and the police are under the attack of a new wave of terrorism and the PPP stands with them in this difficult time.
The Secretary Information PPP said that the silence of the Muslim Ummah on the oppression in Palestine is a question mark. “The PPP always had a clear stand on Kashmir and Palestine,” he said. He said the PPP has an unequivocal stance on the issue of Palestine and has always talked about Kashmir and Palestine. “Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is the only leader who went to the Palestinian embassy and spoke for the cause of Palestine,” he said.
The Secretary Information PPP said Bilawal Bhutto is arriving in Islamabad and will address workers’ conventions in Khyber Pukhtoonkhaw and go to Abbottabad. He said that the PPP will celebrate the foundation day in Balochistan this time and in this regard, there will be a public meeting in Quetta on November 30.
Faisal Karim Kundi said the PPP tried hard to implement the Charter of Democracy and whenever the PML-N needed PPP we played a positive role.
To a question, he sarcastically said the PML-N may have signed a charter with Baloch leaders that in future, there will be no discrimination in Balochistan. “The PML-N is looking for political crutches,” he said.
On caretaker government policy on privatizations, Kundi said, “How is the caretaker government selling national assets.” “The PPP is concerned about the employees of the PIA,” he said, adding that the former Federal Minister of the PML-N era is sitting in the Privatization Commission meetings.
