Imran's narrative ponders his undemocratic thinking: Bilawal

Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Wednesday while launching a scathing attack on former prime minister said that the narrative of Imran Khan a reflection of his undemocratic thinking and the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman is doing politics of lies, hatred and incitement to convince his stubbornness. Speaking to the media in Larkana on Wednesday, he said that the Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) toppled his [Imran Khan] government and this will be the third parliament to complete the term as the general elections in the country will be held at the scheduled time. Bilawal said Imran Khan wants the door of dictatorship to be opened and he can become the Prime Minister once again through back door. “Khan Sahib s first obstinacy and conspiracy was to hold elections in the presence of his facilitators sitting in the establishment and he come out successful,” he added. The foreign minister went on to say that the PTI chairman has no more facilitators in the establishment, adding that he might have facilitators in any other institution. On Tuesday, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman said some people were trying to tear the country apart through baseless political narratives. "Bilawal House, not White House ousted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan from power," he said. Addressing the party’s power show at Garhi Khuda Bakhsh to mark the 15th death anniversary of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, he said those behind her mother s assassination wanted to halt PPP’s journey for supremacy of the democracy, adding that he would take his mother’s mission forward. Praising “jiyalas”, he said the masses loyalty to Benazir proved that they had not forgotten her political ideas. “My mother was a patriotic Pakistani and her name was carved not only in country’s history but across the world. She was the voice of the poor, an ambassador for the destitute, a true supporter of democracy, and a strong answer to terrorists,” said Bilawal. “it is our responsibility to follow Bibi’s vision and achieve the mission she had set out on," the PPP chairman stressed. “President Zardari and I tried to take her mission forward and whatever work is left will be completed in the next 15 years,” he promised. Launching a tirade against PTI chief Imran Khan, he said Khan attacked the 18th amendment, which gives legislative and financial autonomy to the provinces, many times for his personal gains. "We ousted Imran Khan through a no-trust motion and saved the country from a fascist leader," thundered Bilawal. The foreign minister held Imran Khan responsible for rising terror attacks in the country, saying he bent his knees in front of the proscribed TTP without asking people and parliament. He added that he would urge the government to review policy towards terrorism, adding that “we will have to quit that policy and establish the writ of the state.” “Only the PPP has the ability to steer the country out of the prevailing crisis beacause we had dealt with the terrorists effectively in the past and will do so in future as well," he added.
