Emotional statements of Bilawal Bhutto Zardari are devoid of facts and logic, Shibli Faraz said.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Information Minister Shibli Faraz has urged the opposition parties to shun the bad tradition of not accepting election defeat saying this posture is contrary to democratic norms.

In his tweets on Tuesday, he said those delivering lectures on democracy should adopt democratic conduct.

The Minister said the emotional statements of PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari are devoid of facts and logic.

Shibli Faraz expressed his surprise that those raising slogans regarding the sanctity of vote are not ready to respect the ballot of the people of Gilgit-Baltistan.

Shibli Faraz reminded that all the surveys showed the lead of PTI in Gilgit-Baltistan with Prime Minister Imran Khan as the most popular leader. 

On the other hand, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Political Communication Dr. Shahbaz Gill said people of GB have altogether rejected the corruption, fake narrative and chicanery of Maryam Nawaz and Bilawal Bhutto.

Dr. Shahbaz Gill took to Twitter and said ‘culprit Maryam’ tried to become ‘Halima Sultan’ and committed corruption as a national duty while ‘parchi chairman Bilawal’ tried to mislead people regarding 12 seats secured after deal with establishment.
