Resolution of all problems of the public lies in ouster of PTI-led govt: Bilawal


KARACHI, Nov 21 (SABAH): Lashing out at the “incompetency” of those running the country, Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari claimed on Sunday that the resolution of all problems of the public lies in the ouster of the PTI-led government.

Expressing serious concerns over the ongoing gas crisis across Pakistan, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that Prime Minister Imran Khan is continuously creating crisis and increasing the miseries of the people. The premier should apologise to the citizens who are starving due to the policies of the PTI-led government, he said.

Responding to a question about the prevailing gas crisis, the PPP chairman said that there would be no gas crisis in the country if the government would have imported LNG timely.

By increasing the gas prices, the government took it out of the reach of the public, Bilawal Bhutto said, adding that if the Pak-Iran gas pipeline project of their government would have been completed, there would be no energy crisis in Pakistan.

“Due to the incompetency of the government, industries are not able to fulfill their export orders today,” he added.

He maintained that the premier should apologise to citizens, as they were now only able to have one meal a day due to the ongoing gas crisis in the country.

“Had the government ordered LNG in advance, we would not have faced such issues,” Bilawal Bhutto said, adding that if PPP’s Pak-Iran gas pipeline project was allowed to be completed, the country would not have faced this crisis.

Meanwhile in his message on the birth anniversary of the late uncle Shahnawaz Bhutto, Bilawal Bhutto stated that history will never forget the struggle and sacrifice made by Shahnawaz Bhutto for Pakistan’s democracy.

“Shahnawaz Bhutto’s revolutionary thinking and determination will always be a beacon of light for us,” he added.
