KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that whenever a government had come to power as the result of a conspiracy, it always worked to safeguard the interests of its “Selectors” instead o of thinking about the masses.

Pakistan People’s Party earlier had remained steadfast against the dictatorial regimes of Ziaul Haq and Pervez Musharraf as this time also it would combat against the present selected rulers of the country.

Bilawal Bhutto said that former prime ministers and leaders of PPP Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto had been martyred in Rawalpindi in order to eliminate the Peoples Party.

While addressing the general workers’ meeting of the Sindh chapter of his party held at the helipad of Bilawal House Karachi, PPP Chairman stated that a conspiracy was being hatched against the PPP’s Sindh government like after every two hours as the selected rulers of the country dreamt of getting the provincial government in Sindh. “They want to install a puppet chief minister much like the case of other provinces,” he said.

 “We want such a prime minister in the country who is duly elected by the masses and who should take steps for the masses,” he said.

 “They want to bring a puppet chief minister in Sindh who do his work on the signals of Imran Niazi and do compromises. How we would tolerate a puppet chief minster when we are not tolerating prime minister,” said the PPP chairman.

He said that several more conspiracies would be hatched against the Peoples Party before its show of power on 27th December, 2019 (on the occasion of death anniversary of Benazir Bhutto) but the PPP chairman advised activists to remain steadfast as while maintaining unity in their ranks they should reach Liaquat Bagh Rawalpindi (for the death anniversary programme).

He said that PPP was going to organize its upcoming meeting on 27th December in the same city where Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto had been martyred.

 “After the martyrdom of BB we decided that the democracy is the best revenge but today democracy and democratic way of thinking have been under attack while rights of people are being trampled upon,” said Bilawal.

He said that oppression against masses was at its peak while the PPP had been keeping up with its obligation to raise its voice on peoples’ rights.

He said that PPP would continue with its struggle for safeguarding the democracy.

“We will follow the footsteps of our martyrs to secure the democratic dispensation and constitution in the country. We are furthering their (martyrs’) mission in disregard of oppression and tyranny,” he said.

 “People’s Party is once more coming to Pindi. It is Rawalpindi where Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was hanged at the gallows and on 27th December Benazir Bhutto was martyred at Liaquat Bagh. You have tried hard to finish Peoples Peoples but you failed in your attempts. We are once more coming to Rawalpindi,” said Bilawal while addressing the present rulers.

He said that every activist of Peoples and masses of this country would reach their destination while following the footsteps of the Bhutto.

He said that the Peoples Party in its upcoming public meeting in Rawalpindi on 27th December would announce a “Peoples Policy”. “After Punjab we will go to Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,” he said.

Bilawal said that Peoples Party after 27th December would launch a countrywide campaign to raise public awareness. “I believe that masses will come out with us.

 “We want to give out the message today that power lies with the people. Peoples Party don’t accept the present selected rulers as we also don’t accept the selectors. We believe in the power of the people,” said the PPP chairman.

He said that whenever a government had come to power as the result of a conspiracy, it always worked to safeguard the interests of its “Selectors” instead o of thinking about the masses. “We will put the burden on the affluent class instead of overburdening the poor masses whenever we come to power,” he said.

He said that masses had been facing serious hardships due to the issue of price-hike as only the Peoples Party had the ability to provide relief to the people by getting rid of this issue.

He said that present rulers had doing economic murder of the masses on the direction of the International Monetary Fund.

 “If in case there was present a pro-people and duly elected government in the country today then the poor people should not have been subjected to economic murder,” he said.

“We will come out against this oppression to fight the war for securing peoples’ right,” he said. He said that people had not been given resources during one-year rule of the incompetent and ineligible government. “We have to get rid of this incompetent government for securing the peoples’ interests,” he said.

He said that both labourers and farmers in the country had become upset as human rights of the masses were being denied. “Present rulers have been exhausting their entire energy only against their political opponents,” said PPP chairman.
