PPP To Pay Tribute To Z.A Bhutto On His Death Anniversary: Nisar Ahmed Khuhro

Sindh Senior Minister Nisar Ahmed Khuhro said Pakistan Peoples Party's founding leader and former Prime Minister Zulfiqar Bhutto set the foundation of development and gave the nuclear power to Pakistan.

HYDERABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 24th Mar, 2018 ) :Sindh Senior Minister Nisar Ahmed Khuhro said Pakistan Peoples Party's founding leader and former Prime Minister Zulfiqar Bhutto set the foundation of development and gave the nuclear power to Pakistan.

He told a press conference at the residence of provincial minister Imdad Pitafi in Qasimabad area here Saturday that the party and its supporters would pay tribute to Bhutto on his death anniversary on April 4.

"He didn't bow down his head before the dictator and achieved an eternal place for himself in the history," the minister said. Khuhro said during the five decades since the PPP was formed, several attempts had been made to break the party but the party remained strong and united under the leadership of chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.

The PPP leader informed that around 3 million people in Sindh had joined the party since the membership campaigns started in January this year. He said the provincial autonomy, 18th constitutional amendment and 7th National Finance Commission (NFC) award were given during the PPP's government.

"People will keep in view the PPP's services when they go for vote in 2018 general elections," he said.

Responding to a question, he said the alliances against the PPP were formed during the 2013 general elections and 2015 local government elections, adding that similar groupings would also emerge before 2018 elections.

"But like the past, these alliances would be defeated with the power of vote," he expressed the hope. Khuhro said the delimitation of Constituencies had been done by Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) after the population census which was conducted after a long lapse of 19 years.

He said the ECP should allow the submission of objection to the delimitation in the offices of provincial election commission to save time of the people filing the objections. The provincial minister Imdad Pitafi, PPP's leader Waqar Mehdi, Syed Ali Nawaz Shah Rizvi, Rashid Rabbani and others were present on the occasion.

Earlier, Khuhro chaired a meeting Hyderabad, Nawabshah and Mirpurkhas divisions' chapters to discuss arrangements for April 4 death anniversary commemoration of Bhutto.
