Senior Pakistan People’s Party leader and former leader of the opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khurshid Ahmed Shah said on Monday that PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari was the party’s candidate for the seat of prime minister.

Taking to media outside an accountability court in Sukkur, he said that it was the PPP’s CEC that took decisions. “I have a question for former prime minister and PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif and that is whether he was still giving respect to the right to vote as he had been laying stress on it for the last four years.

Khurshid asked Nawaz and other PML-N leaders as to why they were criticizing the PTI when they themselves said that the country’s ‘establishment’ was supporting them.

“The establishment belongs to the nation,” he said, and added, “Even former prime minister and PTI Chairman Imran Khan used to say that he enjoyed the establishment’s support.” Responding to a question, the PPP leader said that he and other party leaders were going to Quetta not to join any other political party, but to hold a public gathering on the eve of the PPP’s 56th ‘Yaum-e-Tasees’.
