Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that it is clear that his party will form the next government.
Speaking at the Jinnah Stadium in Sukkur on Monday, the PPP leader said that it is written on the wall that the next government will be of the PPP.
Expressing his views on the upcoming general elections and the controversies arising out of it, he said: “General elections are inevitable”.
“They [elections] will be held within 90 days, if not 100 or at most 120 days,” he added.
Refuting the narrative that the PPP does not present, the former foreign minister – pointing to the Sindh government’s National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) – said: “There is not a single hospital in Islamabad that has NICVD facilities. Be equal.”
“If one cannot afford private hospitals, he can go to Sindh government hospitals which provide free care,” said the PPP chairman.
A day ago Bilawal while addressing the inauguration ceremony of water filtration plant in Hyderabad said that his former political allies are running away from elections.
Without naming anyone, the PPP leader taunted former ally Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN) for its reluctance to support elections within the constitutional limit of 90 days.
It is important to know that Bilawal has repeatedly reiterated his party’s Central Executive Committee (CEC) stance in favor of elections within 90 days.
However – this stance has put Bilawal and the PPP’s CEC at odds with former President and PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari, who supports new delimitations under the new census and therefore effective measures. are in favor of holding elections after the 90-day limit.
The Pakistan Muslim League (N)-led Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) government dissolved the National Assembly on August 9 to allow the electoral authority to hold elections in the country within 90 days instead of 60 days if the legislature fulfills its constitutional mandate. Expires.
If the election is held within your 90-day limit, then the election will be held on November 9, 2023.
However, before dissolving the assemblies, the coalition government unanimously approved the Seventh Population and Housing Census 2023 in the Council of Common Interests (CCI) meeting.
After the CCI’s approval, the ECP announced a schedule of new constituencies on 17 August that exceeded the constitutional limit of 90 days on 9 November, almost ensuring that the elections would be held after 90 days. It is likely to happen.
