Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that the entire nation is extremely disappointed over the “politics of hatred ” prevailing in Islamabad.
“The people of the country are very disappointed over polarised, hyper-partisan and politics of hatred prevailing in Islamabad,” he said while addressing the PPP’s Sindh chapter parliamentary party meeting on Wednesday.
The scion of the Bhutto family emphasized improving governance and called for the ending of the politics of “transfer and posting”.
Highlighting the difficult financial situation, Bilawal said that the funding for projects in Sindh from the federal government is “uncertain”.
“[The] projects that should receive funds from the federal government is uncertain,” he said while addressing the PPP’s Sindh chapter parliamentary party on Wednesday.
The statement from Bilawal, whose party is an ally of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N)-led government at the Centre, came amid Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-backed Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur’s tirade against the Centre over the matter of arrears.
The PPP chief said he would make all-out efforts to ensure the release of funds from the coalition government at the Centre — led by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
“We will try our best and I know that all such issues will be resolved before the budget,” he said hoping that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif would fulfil his promises.
