Punjab Information and Culture Minister Azma Bokhari has said that Bilawal Zardari should first seek the resignations of his father and the Chairman Senate instead of predicting the government’s downfall.
She said that Bilawal Zardari does not appear to be in good spirits these days and has been delivering speeches in a raised voice because he is unsettled by Maryam Nawaz’s performance. Azma Bokhari said it is not possible for their party leadership to be insulted while they remain silent. She added that Maryam Nawaz can be the Pakistan Muslim League (N)’s candidate for Prime Minister in the next general elections, and whether the Pakistan Peoples Party seeks reconciliation or confrontation, “we are prepared for both.”
She further said that Bilawal is short-tempered and lacks restraint in his choice of words. She said the Charter of Democracy was signed, but it appears that Bilawal himself has trampled it underfoot. She added that they only respond when such remarks are made, ignoring 80 percent of Bilawal’s statements and responding only to 20 percent, particularly when the line is crossed. Azma Bokhari said every political party has its own history, including the Pakistan Peoples Party, and therefore she is reserving her comments for now. She said that if an opposing candidate has to disappear for Bilawal to secure his family’s seat in Nawabshah, and if local government elections are conducted in the manner witnessed by the world.
