Entire nation on same page over Kashmir issue: Bilawal

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Tuesday said that the entire nation was on the same page over Kashmir issues.

Condemning the Pulwama attack, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the attack would not have happened if India had given Kashmiris their just right to self determination. He said that it could be the reaction of state terrorism in occupied Kashmir. Bilawal said that Pakistan wanted better relations with its neighboring countries.

The PPP leader said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf government should have taken the opposition into confidence over Pulwama attack. He also welcomed Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman’s recent visit to Pakistan and the Saudi investment in the country.

Responding to a question, Bilawal Bhutto said that according to the jurisdiction rules, cases against him should be heard in Sindh. He said that the review petition filed in the Supreme Court was very important for him.

The PPP leader pleaded the apex court to form a larger bench on his review petition.

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Imran Khan made it clear that Pakistan would retaliate in case, if India started a war in the wake of Pulwama Attack.

While giving a policy statement over the Pulwama attack in the occupied Kashmir that killed nearly 40 Indian army personnel on Feb 14, the premier responded sternly to India’s blame game against Pakistan. “I have been hearing and seeing on Indian media that their politicians are calling for revenge from Pakistan. If India attacks, then Pakistan will not think but retaliate,” he cautioned.
