Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari on Thursday asserted that \u2018some forces\u2019 hinder the progress of leaders with a vision for advancing the country. He however expressed his confidence in the people of Pakistan, emphasising that he does not succumb to fear in the face of such forces.<\/p>\n

Addressing a rally in Quetta to mark the party\u2019s 56th foundation day, he said that Balochistan was the heart of Pakistan, a term usually referred to Lahore, lamenting that Islamabad and other provinces fail to recognise it as such.<\/p>\n

Zardari affirmed his party’s commitment to rectifying this perception while acknowledging the significance of winning hearts of the people of Balochistan to achieve this goal.<\/p>\n

He stated that the PPP would empower the people of Balochistan, ensuring their ownership of the province’s resources, including gas, petrol, and minerals. He underlined that the rights to these resources belong solely to the people of Balochistan, with no claim by others.<\/p>\n

The former president highlighted the challenges faced by Balochistan and emphasised the need to address the grief prevalent in the province.<\/p>\n

He pledged that the PPP would make Balochistan the master of its own destiny, ensuring that all resources, whether gas, petrol, or minerals, benefit the local population. Zardari promised equitable distribution of water resources across all provinces.<\/p>\n

Turning his attention to his son Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, the veteran politician commended former foreign minister for elevating Pakistan’s dignity at a young age. He called for support for Bilawal, envisioning him as a leader of the youth, guiding the nation towards prosperity.<\/p>\n

Zardari concluded by asserting the need to groom Bilawal as a leader for today and tomorrow, saying that he would try to transfer his \u2018wisdom\u2019 to his son.<\/p>\n

Bilawal fires broadside at PML-N<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking on the occasion, Bilawal took aim at his political opponents, asserting that the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had earned the moniker “mehangai <\/em>[inflation] league”, calling the former coalition partners a showbaaz <\/em>(braggers) of Pakistani politics.<\/p>\n

Bilawal said that 70% of the country’s population comprises youth, highlighting his own youthful identity. In an apparent reference to former prime minister Imran Khan, who is considered popular among the youth, the former foreign minister said that he would represent the youth himself, not any khiladi<\/em> (player).<\/p>\n

Bilawal credited his father Asif Ali Zardari for burying the politics of hatred and revenge, marking the beginning of a new era.<\/p>\n

He said that his party would bring a new \u201ccharter of economy\u201d if brought to power, criticising the PML-N-led government in failing to curb inflation despite holding the finance ministry.<\/p>\n

Urging the youth to reject divisive politics, Bilawal expressed regret that Islamabad failed to recognise the significance of Balochistan in Pakistan.<\/p>\n

He called for a new vision and politics in Pakistan, signalling the PPP’s intention to initiate a fresh style of politics to empower the people in facing economic challenges.<\/p>\n
