PPP’s Bilawal lashes out at PM Imran Khan during jalsa address.
“Imran Khan is an animal and wants the law of the jungle in Pakistan.”
Bilawal assures nation that Opposition will rid Pakistan of “curse”.

DARGAI: PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said Wednesday the people of Pakistan wanted to know who did Prime Minister Imran Khan call an animal in his recent speech.

The prime minister, in his address to a rally earlier this month, had said only “animals are neutral” because they do not distinguish between good and evil.

“For the last three years, he has wanted to convert every institution into his Tiger Force. We do not want to make our institutions controversial just because of one person,” the PPP chairman said while addressing a public rally in Dargai, Malakand in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Bilawal said the no-confidence motion against PM Imran Khan was a test for the country’s democracy as the incumbent premier was “well-aware” that he cannot win if transparent elections are held.

“Imran Khan is an animal and wants the law of the jungle in Pakistan. Imran Khan was imposed on Pakistan to destroy its economy, politics and foreign policy. Imran Khan will be booted out through democratic means,” the PPP chairman vowed.

PM part of ‘scheme’

Bilawal said the prime minister was brought into power to “destroy Pakistan”.

“It was a scheme to send this man to ruin the economic and foreign policies.”

Referring to the premier’s comments about India’s foreign policy, he said that if New Delhi’s policy is to “ruin the CPEC (China-Pakistan Economic Corridor), then this man successfully did so”.

“If this is India’s policy, it is his policy too,” he said.

The PPP chairman said that the prime minister talks about a transparent system in the country, but he has not responded to the foreign-funding case — ongoing in the Election Commission of Pakistan.

“It has been proven that he obtained funds from Israel and India,” he said.

Bilawal said that the government’s plan to “bow” down before the International Monetary Fund (IMF) was part of the “conspiracy” to weaken Pakistan.

“What greater foreign conspiracy is there than Imran campaigning for Modi in the Indian elections while being a prime minister? He used to say that Modi winning would benefit the Kashmir cause,” he said.

The PPP chairman reassured the nation the Opposition would soon rid them of the “curse” of the prime minister.

PM Imran Khan on ‘neutral’ statement

Hours before Bilawal’s hard-hitting rally address, the prime minister, while conversing with journalists, said his statement on neutrality was taken in the “wrong context”.

“I said that in the context of preventing evil and asking people to do good.”

The nomination of Ishaq Dar as deputy prime minister raises concerns.

A lot of doubts have been raised by Ishaq Dar, the foreign minister, being appointed deputy prime minister.

No reference to the Constitution, regulations, or any other law was mentioned in the Cabinet Division’s notification of the appointment.

What powers Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif used to designate Ishaq Dar as deputy prime minister has come under scrutiny in light of this.

There are questions about the legal foundation for the deputy prime minister’s nomination as it appears from the notification’s phrasing that rules for the position have not yet been established, according to insiders.

Likewise, the announcement is vague about the deputy prime minister’s proposed authority.

Deputy prime minister would be purely symbolic, according to government sources, and would not be authorized to carry out prime ministerial duties. In Pakistan, the deputy prime minister has previously been nominated.

The PPP administration appointed Chaudhry Parvez Elahi as deputy prime minister.

Observe that Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar was appointed deputy prime minister on Sunday with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s consent; the Cabinet Division formally announced the appointment.

Dar holds the position of Pakistan’s fourth deputy prime minister. Previous appointments to the position of deputy prime ministers included Parvez Elahi, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, and Begum Nusrat Bhutto.

Ali Amin Gandapur, the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has threatened to storm Islamabad, according to Khawaja Saad Rafique, a former minister and leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N). This is a very serious situation.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa administration has reportedly launched attacks on the federal capital in the past in an attempt to seize Islamabad, according to Saad Rafiq on the social media platform X (previously Twitter).

“However, PTI got nothing and it resulted in creating chaos, hatred and economic destruction,” he continued.

He added, “If the anarchists attack Islamabad to occupy it this time too, it will become impossible for them to return as rulers.”

According to the leader of the PML-N, fascist behavior will no longer be accepted, and the dirty politics of violence, fire, and ransacking will no longer be effective.

The PTI, he said, has to act rationally and refrain from inciting another May 9.
