Pakistan People’s Party Chairman, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, criticized Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Nawaz Sharif, accusing him of being afraid of the people and refusing to engage in a debate. Speaking at a party rally in Mirpur Khas, Bilawal Bhutto claimed that Nawaz Sharif, who is seeking a fourth term as Prime Minister, was resorting to rigging, similar to what was allegedly done for Imran Khan. He also took a dig at the PML-N by highlighting their lack of significant effort in the Sindh province during their time in office.
During his speech, Bilawal Bhutto accused Nawaz Sharif of attempting to manipulate the election results for Mirpurkhas from his remote location in Raiwing. He expressed concerns about the PML-N’s intentions to defeat the PPP candidates and questioned whether the audience would accept such actions. Additionally, Bilawal Bhutto criticized other political parties for prioritizing personal revenge over genuine political engagement. He emphasized that the PPP’s focus was on addressing poverty, unemployment, and inflation, rather than targeting any specific party.
In response to Shehbaz Sharif’s challenge for a debate with Nawaz Sharif, Bilawal Bhutto accepted and proposed three different locations in Sindh: Karachi, Gambat Tehsil of Khairpur District, and Tharparkar. He also suggested holding the debate outside the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) in Karachi, highlighting the facility’s provision of treatment to over 84,000 patients from Punjab last year. Bilawal Bhutto urged Shehbaz Sharif to confirm a date and location for the debate, urging him not to “run away.”
The upcoming general elections in Pakistan are scheduled to take place on February 8.
