He said that terrorism has re-emerged, adding that the soldiers sacrificed their lives to eliminate terrorists. He said Zarb-e-Momin started during the PPP era, while Operations of Zarb-e-Azb and Raad-ul-Fasaad were started during Nawaz Sharif s tenure but it is unfortunate that during PTI during its three-year rule couldn’t implement National Action Plan.

Regarding the Kashmir issue, Bilawal said that the government has failed to form consensus on the Kashmir cause. He expressed his concerns over the increasing incidents of terror in the country, especially in Balochistan.
“The government’s incapacity to deal with terrorism is very apparent,” he said and added it is natural that the government will be threatened with the unity in the opposition parties.
The PPP chairman also appreciated Shahbaz Sharif’s efforts to keep the opposition’s unity intact in the National Assembly.
