PDM criticizes PTI Govt as Aseefa Bhutto-Zardari makes political entry
News Desk :
The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) on Monday strongly criticized the Pakistan Tehrik e Insaf (PTI) government for its policies as Asifa Bhutto-Zardari made her political entry in Multan for the first time. Asifa Bhutto-Zardari’s first political appearance widely discussed on formal and social media and political pundits termed it a major political development in the country.
The anti-government alliance held its fifth power show in Multan in Punjab province to mount pressure on the prime minister Imran Khan-led government. The PDM Chief Maulana Fazal ur Rehman, PML (N) Vice-President Maryam Nawaz, and other central leaders of the anti-government alliance addressed the rally.
Aseefa, who attended the rally on her brother and PPP chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari’s behalf, said that the public has given its verdict and the “selected will have to go now”.
“I have come among you today at a time when my brother, your brother, Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari is suffering from coronavirus. I hope that just like you supported the mother of democracy and the daughter of the east, you will support Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on PDM’s platform. And I promise that I will support Chairman Bilawal and you at every step.”
She said that if the government arrested their brothers, PPP’s women will step out to struggle and save the country.
“If they think we will be scared of arrests, it’s their delusion. If they arrest our brothers, every female worker of PPP will step outside to save our brothers and the country,” Aseefa told a charged crowd.
PML-N Vice President Maryam, in her address, said she was “convinced of the bravery of Multan’s people” as she had been told that the administration had refused to give permission for a rally, yet people had gathered to hold one.
