Ahsan Iqbal dares Bilawal Bhutto for Larkana-Narowal comparison
Pakistan
Tarar reminds PPP chairman of the days of mocking Takht-e-Lahore
NAROWAL (Dunya News/Web Desk) – PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal on Thursday challenged PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to compare Narowal with Larkana and said no person in Lahore wanted to see his city turning into Karachi.
Reminding Bilawal the PPP’s politics revolves around Larkana, he promised to shun politics if Bilawal’s hometown in Sindh was better than Narowal and advised the PPP chairman to do the same in case Narowal wins the comparison.
Ahsan, who was addressing a youth convention, said Bilawal should first check his performance in Sindh before criticising PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif and his party,
Urging Bilawal to avoid issuing baseless and depraved statements, the PML-N leader said the PPP had been ruling Sindh for the last 15 years, but had ruined Karachi – the largest city and economic hub of Pakistan.
Karachi, once the “city of lights”, was like a derelict place after the years of PPP rule, Ahsan said, adding that Shehbaz Sharif, as the Punjab chief minister, had shaped Lahore as the city of lights during the 2008-18 period.
He said the PML-N was the party which gave laptops to the youth – a scheme which proved to be game changer for hundreds of thousands of individuals but criticised by the rivals who had labelled it as an attempt to woo the youngsters.
YOU CAN’T WIN PUNJAB
Earlier in Lahore, PML-N Deputy Secretary General Attaullah Tarar had questioned how Bilawal could even campaign for votes in the city as he used to mock the Punjab capital as “Takht-e-Lahore”.
Tarar said Bilawal would never be able to form government in Punjab and added that Nawaz Sharif was set to become the country’s prime minister for his fourth term in office.
