QUETTA
\nIn a fervent celebration of the Pakistan Peoples Party\u2019s (PPP) Foundation Day in Quetta, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, the party\u2019s Chairman, delivered a powerful speech, igniting political fervour in the arena.
\nThe gathering witnessed a moment of symbolic significance as former President Asif Ali Zardari placed his party\u2019s pagri (turban) on Bilawal Bhutto, dispelling rumours of discord between the father-son duo.
\nAddressing the PPP Balochistan chapter workers, Bilawal Bhutto launched a scathing critique against political rivals, particularly targeting the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
\nBilawal asserted that the PML-N had transformed into a party of inflation profiteers, and declared, \u201cI am not a seasonal democrat; whether in government or opposition, we always uphold the constitution.\u201d
\nReflecting on the party\u2019s history, Bilawal Bhutto praised the visionary approach of his grandfather, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the founder of PPP. He highlighted Bhutto\u2019s commitment to empowering workers and farmers, asserting Pakistan\u2019s identity on the global stage, and pioneering a new era in politics.
\nReferring to the PPP\u2019s previous term in government, Bilawal suggested that when Asif Ali Zardari assumed the presidency, he could have sought revenge, but instead, he chose to break the cycle of animosity.
\nHe said Zardari\u2019s tenure, focused on inclusivity, economic development, and international collaboration, exemplified by projects like the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and wheat exports.
\nLooking forward, Bilawal emphasized the need for a new political paradigm in Pakistan, emphasizing unity over division. He pledged the PPP\u2019s commitment to address economic challenges, unveiling a People\u2019s Charter for Economic Development. The charter, he claimed, would tackle poverty through policies benefiting farmers and workers.
\nThe PPP chairman also announced to start \u2018Youth Card and Mazdor Card\u2019 like the Benazir Income Support Program to uplift Pakistani youth and the labour class.
\nFormer President Asif Ali Zardari, in his response, underlined the significance of linguistic unity, urging everyone to consider the language of the people as the language of God. He expressed his determination to make the people of Balochistan the true owners of their land, emphasizing the party\u2019s commitment to Balochistan\u2019s development.
\nZardari acknowledged Bilawal Bhutto\u2019s role as a leader for the youth and lauded his perseverance during his time in prison. He shared his dream of seeing a strong and prosperous Pakistan and called on the people to join hands in building a great nation.
\nThe event concluded with both leaders expressing optimism about the PPP\u2019s future and victory in upcoming general elections on February 8, 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
