PPP made new Pakistan and will keep it flourishing: Khursheed Shah

SUKKUR: Leader of Opposition Khursheed Shah said on Sunday that the foundation of ‘Naya Pakistan’ was kept by the Pakistan People’s Party, adding that the party will keep the country on the road to development.

The Opposition leader in the National Assembly was addressing a crowd in Sukkur, where he said the PPP is the only political party to have completed its 50 years.

He said that due to the wrong policies the country shifted towards disintegration.The government is trying to run the country by taking loans, said Shah.

Shah said that back in the day, military ruler Zia-ul-Haq’s policies gave birth to terrorism, due to which unemployment still plagues the youth.

He said that prime ministers when held accountable for wrongdoing apologise and leave, while the PPP founder Zulfikar Ali Bhutto laid his life.

The senior PPP leader said that Bhutto had great designs for the country’s progress but his death was a part of the big conspiracy against Pakistan.

“Bilawal is our hope and he will be similar to his grandfather,” said Shah.

While taking a jibe at the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, Shah remarked that those ‘who cannot keep their workers and children safe, won’t be able to save the country either’.
