PPP's Bilawal responds to PM Imran Khan's tweet on ECL
Bilawal is one of the 172 individuals added to the no-fly list by the federal government.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has responded to the tweet of Prime Minister Imran Khan on the placement of several politicians’ names on the no-fly list.
He called him ‘selected’ prime minister who was not aware of freedom of movement and human rights.
“Funny it’s only the opposition members on ECL, government members are busy travelling. Including PM who despite promising not to travel for 1st 6months has made more than 7 trips so far!,” he further added.
Obviously selected PM doesn’t understand the concept of human rights or freedom of movement. Funny it’s only the opposition members on ECL, government members are busy travelling.

He said that the PM and several other federal ministers were themselves on foreign trips.
The PTI came under fire on Wednesday in the National Assembly when foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi admitted ‘haste’ in placing names of 172 suspects on the ECL.
The federal cabinet, during meetings, has deferred the decision twice on removing the names of Bilawal and Sindh CM Murad Ali Shah despite the concerns shown by Chief Justice of Pakistan Saqib Nisar on the matter during case proceedings and said that the government would wait for the court s detailed judgement.
However, the matter is expected to be discussed today again in the meeting of the federal cabinet.
