Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry on Saturday said PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and his long march to the federal capital would be welcomed and served refreshments in Rawalpindi but it would be better if it arrived after the ongoing Test match between Pakistan and Australia which is being played at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

The PPP’s long march is underway and is poised to reach Islamabad on March 8. Meanwhile, the Australian cricket team is also in the country for a historic tour and the first Test match is scheduled to continue till Mar 8 as well.

Addressing a press conference in Lahore with Education Minister Shafqat Mahmood, Chaudhry said: “We will welcome Bilawal Bhutto’s long march in Rawalpindi. We only want that he reaches after the match [with Australia] since [Australian] cricket has arrived in Pakistan after 24 years and we don’t want to give a signa that [negatively] affects cricket in Pakistan.”

Taking a gibe at the opposition party, he said even if the PPP march managed to come to Rawalpindi during the Test match, “a cabin would suffice for the few people” with Bilawal and refreshments would be served to the “60 to 100 people with you”.
