Bibi Shaheed's mission, corruption cannot go side by side, Firdous tells Bilawal

ISLAMABAD: In a hard-hitting response to Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardar’s speech, Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan has said that Benazir Bhutto’s mission and ‘commission’ cannot go side by side, ARY News reported.

In a series of tweets, Dr Firdous said that the two arch rivals of the past, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and PPP are defending one another to conceal their alleged corruption.

 

بلاول صاحب! بی بی شہید کا مشن اور کمشن اکٹھے نہیں چل سکتا ۔سیاسی یتیم وہ ہیں جو ایک پرچی سے پارٹی پر مسلط ہوئے۔ایک دوسرے پر مقدمے بنانے والے آج ایک دوسرے کے وکیل بنے ہیں۔

She said that political orphans are those who become party chief through a chit. The special assistant urged Bilawal to focus on eliminating hunger and malnutrition in Sindh and stop daydreaming.

Dr Firdous said that the people have rejected the narrative of personal interest by boycotting the Liaqat Bagh meeting.
