PPP opposes attempts to thrust Nawaz on country, says Khuhro

By Our Correspondent 2024-01-18
LARKANA: Pakistan Peoples Party Sindh president Senator Nisar Ahmed Khuhro has said the party will fight tooth and nail against any attempt to thrust Nawaz Sharif on the country by robbing people of their right to vote.

He did not rule out the possibility of a coalition government at the Centre if no single party could get majority vote.

Khuhro was addressing a corner meeting in Mirokhan town on Wednesday.

He observed that Imran Khan represented a certainlobby who did not want to see democracy in the country.

He held the PTI solely responsible for losing the symbol of `bat` although he (Imran Khan) was trying to exonerate himself of the mistakes which he had committed.

He said in categorical terms that the people would not accept if Nawaz Sharif was imposed on them.

The PPP leader advised Imran Khan to stopblaming the judiciary and other institutions for covering up his mistakes. The campaign launched against the judiciary and institutions by the PTI was intolerable, he said.He said the PTI should have carried out intra-party elections before the advice of the Election Commission of Pakistan and questioned what he called such `bogus` intra-party elections held in the PTI.

Commenting on Mr Khan`s talk of `Plan C`, he said it was another attempt at hatching a conspiracy against the country.

He said that Imran wanted to boycott the elections and that was why he was blocking the path of proPTI candidates contesting as independents.Claiming that the PTI`s voters had the mindset to cast vote in favour of the independent candidates, he asked them to exercise their right of franchise to lend support to Bilawal BhuttoZardari, a leader of the youth. He wondered that people were talking about the PPP striking alliance with the PTI.

He warned the PML-N to desist from using tricks to deprive PPP`s candidates of their electoral symbol `arrow`. He said PPP`s `Awami Economic Contract` would address all the issues.
