Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that he has no complaint against the Prime Minister, adding that the real dispute is something else and is a matter within the Prime Minister’s family.
Addressing a public gathering of the Pakistan Peoples Party in Bagh, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Bilawal said that a particular section within the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) was working against the party’s own plans and was trying to create conflict between the party, the opposition and its coalition partners.
He said, “I am your ally and I am sitting in Islamabad. How is it acceptable that my votes are stolen, a party worker is martyred, my Member of the National Assembly is shot in the arm, and the President of Azad Kashmir is attacked? This is not an alliance. What is the real issue?”
Bilawal said that he had no complaint against the Prime Minister and that political competition between the PPP and the PML-N had always existed. However, he said the real conflict was something else.
He stated that the real battle was between Islamabad and Lahore and described it as a matter within the Prime Minister’s family, saying that if they wanted to fight, they should do so.

Bilawal further said that the people surrounding the Prime Minister did not have sincere intentions. He claimed that the countdown for the PML-N government had begun and that it had not been initiated by the Pakistan Peoples Party but by the government’s own people. He added that those claiming the government would complete its five-year term did not themselves believe it.
Referring to the situation in Kashmir, Bilawal said that it had never happened before that internet services remained suspended for 50 days, adding that Kashmir had never witnessed such a difficult period in its history.
He said the PPP was not aligned with either the government or the protesters but only wanted the public to receive their rights. He added that the people of the Poonch Division were bearing the burden of the difficult situation.
