ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Peoples Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Friday said that in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K), people are fighting against Modi's policies and in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) are fighting poverty, inflation and unemployment in Imran Khan's government.
“We should form a PPP government which can not only stand against Modi's government but also save you from this PTIMF government,” he said while addressing election rallies in Azad Kashmir at Dhan Gali, Palak Chaksawari in Mirpur and Dhana.
Bilawal was given a rousing reception when he arrived at Dhan Gali to lead a rally in connection with the beginning of the party election campaign for AJK elections. Qamar Zaman Kaira accompanied the PPP chairman.
Addressing PPP workers, Bilawal said the PPP is the only party which has not shaken hands with Modi. “We don’t celebrate with such people and don’t share our sadness with them,” he said, adding that Kashmiri people supported Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto. “We have struggled against dictatorships together and history is a witness to that,” he said.
“We feel your pain because you are the comrades of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto and I cannot leave you at the mercy of these callous governments,” he said and added the PPP is the only party to get you out of sufferings. He said the next prime minister of AJK will be from the PPP.
At Palak Chaksawari, addressing a huge crowd, Bilawal said there was a time when Shaheed Benazir Bhutto said where Kashmiris shed sweat, we will shed blood. “Now, Modi has done a historical injustice with Kashmiri people and Imran Khan's response is what he can do”. He said: “When you supported Shaheed Bhutto, we wrote history together. When you supported Shaheed Benazir Bhutto, we also recorded a history and when you supported President Zardari, the PPP government carried out historic development,” he said.
He said: “Now we have started the journey of a new generation as the youth of both Azad and Occupied Kashmir are also starting a new journey. He said people cannot send their children to schools, buy medicines for their elders and feed their children. “Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto had said that we will fight for Kashmir for a thousand years if need be,” he said.
He said when Zulfikar Ali Bhutto used to give a call for strike in Azad Kashmir, the people of Occupied Kashmir used to observe it as well. He said Imran Khan tried to find a solution for Kashmir by changing the name of the Kashmir Highway to the Srinagar Highway. “You have to respond to this failed and incompetent prime minister by your votes. You have to tell the world that regardless of what this puppet prime minister says, the Kashmiri people are standing with the people of Occupied Kashmir,” he said. “This puppet has not only compromised on Kashmir but also wants to compromise Pakistan's nuclear capability. The Kashmiri people will declare this puppet prime minister a security risk by rejecting him in the elections,” he said.
“After electing a prime minister in Kashmir, we will elect a PPP prime minister in Pakistan as well, who will not compromise on Kashmir and will also be able to solve your problems,” he said, adding that there is only one party which can not only protect Azad Kashmir but Occupied Kashmir as well.
Addressing party workers at Dhana, Bilawal said: “The nuclear capability and missile technology is with us due to Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto. This coward Imran Khan says that we have no need of nuclear capability. We will not allow this puppet to compromise our nuclear capability.”
He said the late Matloob Inqilabi served the Kashmiri people tirelessly and kept the flag of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto flying high. He said the PPP has always served the people of Kashmir and he has come here to ask for support and vote. “Now this new generation will solve the problem confronting Azad Kashmir and will also stand by Occupied Kashmir.” He said even a child knows that the PPP has given employment to Kashmiri people.
