Chairman of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has expressed that the older politicians neglect current issues and lack plans. During the PPP worker’s convention in Shangla, he emphasized his commitment to seeking assistance directly from the people.
Bilawal Bhutto observed that seasoned politicians are stuck in outdated political practices and arrogance. He highlighted PPP’s historical role in alleviating people’s troubles. According to him, PPP’s competition lies not with other politicians but with challenges such as poverty, unemployment, and inflation.
Learning from his mother, Bilawal Bhutto emphasized a representation style focused on addressing the concerns of the poor, rejecting the politics of abuse and social media trends like TikTok.
The former foreign minister urged support for resolving the country’s difficulties, promising positive change. Bilawal Bhutto is scheduled to engage in political activities in Peshawar on December 13, conducting seven-day meetings across the province.
His itinerary includes a visit to Lower Dir on December 9 and addressing a public meeting in Kohat on December 11, all geared toward garnering public support for the upcoming general elections.
