QUETTA: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto turned his guns towards Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party chief Mahmood Khan Achakzai after PTI-backed Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) nominated the latter as their presidential nominee.
Addressing a press conference alongside newly elected Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti, Bilawal Bhutto said that Mahmood Khan Achakzai cannot call himself a “nationalist” as he becomes PTI candidate for president’s slot. However, the PPP chairman said, he would continue to hold dialogue with nationalist parties.
Speaking of PPP’s government in Balochistan, he said that the new provincial regime will be run according to (late) Benazir Bhutto’s last book that spoke about reconciliation. He reiterated that no single political party could alone resolve all the issues of the country’s largest province. “We should all work together,” he added.
Bilawal expressed hope that CM Bugti will visit Gwadar on his first trip because of the devastation caused by heavy rainfall there. He added that the new Balochistan government will fight terrorists and extremists according to the National Action Plan.
