PPP was not given a level playing field in any of past elections: Bilawal Bhutto

KARACHI (92 News) - Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has announced his party’s clear victory in the upcoming general elections, saying 'God willing, the next government will be of the PPP'.

Talking to the media on Friday, he said that it was a great achievement that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had officially announced that the general elections on February 8. "It would have been better if the Election Commission itself had given the date for the general elections, and the Supreme Court would not have interfered. Well, whatever happened, it’s done now, the elections should be held on February 8,” he urged.

The PPP chairman said that all political parties should get a level-playing field in the general elections, adding that PPP has not been given a level playing field in any of the past elections.

To a question about the deportation of refugees, Bilawal said that no party can support any illegal act, but questions are being raised about the manner in which measures are being taken against refugees. “Pakistan People’s Party has always had a strong stand on human rights,” he said and demanded that the law must be implemented, but human rights must be taken care of.
