NOUSHERO FEROZE/MORO: Former President Asif Ali Zardari on Saturday criticised Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s abysmal attendance in the National Assembly.
While addressing an event in Moro, the PPP co-chairman said the premier had attended only four sessions of the assembly in the past four years whereas former Prime Minister Late Mohammad Khan Junejo attended more sessions.
Zardari, who raised concerns about the PM’s attendance in the assembly, said such a precedent would only lead to worse attendance by future leaders.
Addressing party workers in Naushahro Feroze, he said Nawaz Sharif would not have become the prime minister of Pakistan had PPP not made amendment in the constitution.
“Nawaz Sharif would have managed to only become the president”, he said.
Asif Ali Zardari said the country’s foreign policy has weakened a lot, and Nawaz Sharif is losing the diplomatic as well as the democratic battles. Zardari said Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and he (Zardari) promoted friendship with China and no country has any objection over CPEC except the friendly country of Nawaz Sharif i.e. India.
He said Kashmir is their own cause and pointed out that India has already occupied Nagaland and Sikkim but regretted that the world has ignored the Indian aggressive designs. On the contrary, he said the world sees Modi hugging Trump while our Prime Minister is playing with animals in Murree.
He appealed the Prime Minister to appoint a full fledged foreign minister as we are losing diplomatic war.
The former President said the future leaders of PPP would be Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Asifa Zardari. He said whenever his two daughters tweet, he gives serious considerations to their views and reconsider decisions for joining of any person in the party, a reference to Irfanullah Khan Marwat.
The former president also bashed at those PPP leaders joining Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and said dirty eggs keep on shifting places and was of the considered opinion that Imran Khan will never give party tickets to them and he has joined hands with these elements just for the sake of photo session.
Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Co-Chairman claimed that his party will win the next general elections and come into power. He said Pakistan has all the resources but we lack brains. He said the future of Pakistan is in the hands of Peoples Party.
