F.P. Report
ISLAMABAD: Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said if the government had carried out timely action under National Action Plan (NAP) then the Pakistan’s position would have been different.
In an Interview with the BBC Urdu, Bilawal said that if our government timely took action under NAB than India wouldn’t have any basis for accusations against Pakistan and adding that Pakistan would have been in a position evidence to present about the steps taken by the country against extremism.
Tensions between Pakistan and India have been high following the Pulwama attack in occupied Kashmir. India without any proof blamed Pakistan for harbouring militants behind the attack.
Regarding the PPP position in the country, Bilawal claimed that everything was being done against his party and the constitution was not being followed.
He added that from the time of Ayub Khan to the era of Zia-ul-Haq, our political party has heard, that accountability first and then selection. The 90s were all about political engineering.
He further added that we need a proper system of accountability, where accountability is for everyone. It would be better if accountability was done once so that everything would become clear.
Criticizing the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), Bilawal said, “NAB was only created to pressurise political parties. If the rule of law was established, there would be no problem today.”
“Article 10 A gives every citizen the right to a free and transparent trial. The public is not getting their free and transparent trial. It has become a joke,” he added.
