The chairman of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, addressed a rally in Nodero on Tuesday, where he criticized the former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his party, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), for failing to deliver on their promises.
He said that if Sharif was elected for the fourth time, the people would suffer more losses.
Bilawal Bhutto claimed that the PPP had defended the constitution and democracy in every era, and had fought against dictatorship and selected governments.
He said that he would fight for the rights of the people and end the politics of hatred and division in the country. He also paid tribute to the victims of the October 18 Karsaz bombing, which targeted his mother, the late Benazir Bhutto, in 2007.
He said that on February 8, the people would vote for the PPP and end the politics of hatred forever. He said that he wanted to end the personal enmity that had arisen from accusing each other.
He also expressed concern over the resurgence of terrorism in the country, and invited Sharif to come to Karachi and build a house there.
He asked for the support of the people to become the youngest Prime Minister of Pakistan, and promised to resolve the political and constitutional crisis in the country.
He also mentioned his mother several times during his speech, and said that he would form a people's government in her name. He accused Shehbaz Sharif, the brother of Nawaz Sharif and the former premier, of not working for Sindh when he was the Prime Minister.
He said that his competition was not with any party, but with inflation and unemployment. He said that economic stability was linked to political stability, and that he would work for both.
