March 19, 2019
KARACHI (92 News) – Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto on Tuesday leveled allegations against the government for issuing death threats and sending National Accountability Bureau's (NAB) notices. In his tweet, Bilawal Bhutto lamented that he is being termed anti-state for seeking resignations from the federal ministers who have alleged connections with banned outfits. “The government has responded to my demand to sack ministers associated with banned outfits by declaring me anti-state, issuing death threats & NAB notices. None of this deters us from our principle stand; form joint NSC parliamentary committee & act against banned outfits,” Bilawal tweeted. In another tweet, the PPP chairman said, “As long as compromised individuals remain in the cabinet no one will take GOP claims seriously. Those who have supported such groups and their training camps must be removed from the federal cabinet.”
Bilawal says PTI contested election in alliance with banned outfits
Earlier, PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had contested the election in alliance with the banned outfits. Talking to the media on Saturday, he demanded that three ministers should be removed for having links with the banned outfits. He was of the view that Khan Sahib had not stood with the people in the elections. “They cannot contest us in the political arena. They do not want to see me in the assembly,” he said. The PPP chairman said that the Pakistan Air Force captured the Indian pilot, but the government struck an NRO with the government. He added that the country was facing the crisis and human rights are being violated. Bilawal Bhutto demanded that a joint National Security Committee of the parliament should be formed. “The National Action Plan should also be implemented,” he said. Meanwhile, PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto has announced to launch a public contact campaign. “We will visit from Karachi to Larkana to contact the masses,” he said.
Three ministers have links to banned outfits: Bilawal
Addressing a press conference with Sindh Chief Minister Murad ali Shah at the inauguration ceremony of ‘Sarbabz Sindh’, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Thursday again alleged that three current ministers have links with the banned outfits. He demanded the prime minister to take strict action against the cabinet members, alleging that as many as three federal ministers are in close contact with the members of banned organisations. “The action against the proscribed organizations is not enmity against the country, however, this is demand of the opposition,” he said. He said that such ministers, who have links with banned outfits, should not be members of the cabinet.
Bilawal Bhutto asked the government to take strict action against banned outfits. He added that the country could not progress in such circumstances. Rejecting the JIT formed in the fake accounts case, the PPP leader claimed it was a conspiracy against him and his name was expunged by the chief justice.
