PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that even the election commission did not know when the polls will be held, and only one party had this knowledge.
Talking to the media during his visit to Muzaffargarh on Wednesday, the former foreign minister said his party tried to sign a new charter of democracy, but it could not materialize.
He further stated that attempts were made to weaken the institutions by resorting to attacks on May 9, adding that the national institutions were attacked on May 9 owing to personal interests and a conspiracy.
“Only those who were not involved in the May 9 incidents should be involved in the political process,” Bilawal suggested.
He also announced that his party’s election slogan this time would be “Hum Sab ka Pakistan”.
Commenting on the multiple crises the country was faced with, Bilawal said there were several problems but they were the ones who had the solution. He vowed that support for the poor and hardworking would be increased.
“If the farmer is prosperous, Pakistan will also prosper.”

The former minister told the audience that he hoped his party will clinch five National Assembly seats from Muzaffargarh as opposed to the three in the previous elections.
“An incapable, incompetent person was imposed on the country,” he remarked, adding that the solution to the current crises was in the manifesto of former premiers Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto.
Bilawal further commented that political parties benefited the elites and capitalists, adding that they believed this was the way to improve the economic situation.
“It seems to them they will enable the rich to get richer, which will provide employment. We believe that if the common man is given relief the whole economy will rise,” he added.
