Bilawal demands Kulbhushan ordinance to be presented in Parliament

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has demanded the government to present the Kulbhushan ordinance in the Parliament, while criticising PM Imran he said that those who chanted the slogan of Kashmir s ambassador have become Kulbhushan s lawyers.

Bilawal said that we have democratically challenged the ordinance brought for kulbhushan Jadhav and will also oppose the ordinance in the Parliament and the Court. The government has no justification for the Ordinance. Under the constitution, an ordinance cannot be brought during a National Assembly (NA) session.

He said that the ordinance should be presented in the assembly. He alleged that the selection was done on July 25, 2018 while the country is being ruled by a puppet regime. He said, Imran Khan gave the most NROs.

Talking to media on the completion of two years of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) federal government, the PPP chairman said that he was in touch with the opposition parties and opposition will fight against the false JITs at every forum.

He said that the committee is working on All Parties Conference (APC) after Eid and Shehbaz Sharif will lead the APC. We will create consensus on the agenda of the APC. He said, I have met Akhtar Mengal today. If the 18th Amendment and the NFC is touched, then the government will suffer.

Regarding National Accountability Bureau (NAB), Bilawal Bhutto said that NAB was being used for political engineering. He said that we demand that political parties should get political freedom. To date, political parties have not been given a level playing field, he added.

Chairman PPP said that Imran Khan has taken U-turn from every position. The economy has been destroyed. Every Pakistani s life is in danger. The people of Pakistan are carrying the burden of selection. How long we will continue to tolerate the selected, the people will have to decide.

Bilawal further said that PTI had not implemented even one of its manifestos. No promise has been fulfilled by the PTI government. To date, no university has been built in the Prime Minister s House. The Prime Minister had to go to the Prime Minister s House on a bicycle but he used helicopters instead of bicycles. The promise of right to information act has also not been fulfilled.

He said, if the government had consulted then they could have informed that the legislation could not be made on the basis of personality. They have tried to make a law specific to a person. Only non-political puppets can do such a thing. They do not understand that when a big decision has to be made, the nation is taken into confidence.

He said that the ordinance is illegal and if there is nothing wrong with the ordinance, then why they kept it a secret, why the ordinance was hidden from the parliament.

Bilawal futher said that the Ordinance violated the law of Pakistan. The International Court of Justice does not mean that the Constitution of Pakistan should be violated.

Criticizing the Prime Minister, Bilawal said that he who was supposed to be the ambassador of Kashmir has today become the lawyer of Kulbhushan Jadhav. Government should explain in the Assembly the Kulbhushan Jadhav Ordinance.

The PPP chairman said that Imran had given the highest number of NROs in his government. BRT Peshawar has become a white elephant. He alleged that the BRT project was given to friends, corruption has taken place in Malam Jabba, Billion Tree Tsunami projects. Corruption was to end within 90 days? Ask the people how much corruption is happening in the new Pakistan.

Bilawal said that the damage caused by this election has not been done in the past, it is incomprehensible why this step was taken for Imran Khan. Two years ago, there was no election on this day, but selection was done and 90% of Form 45 are still missing.

He said that there was also a bomb blast at the polling booth in Larkana. The media does not have the footage when I was in the polling both for polling. He said that if there was no coronavirus the opposition would have observed july 25 as a black day.
