GHOTKI: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) to hold a public gathering in Ghoti district on Friday (today), ARY News reported.

Chairman Pakistan People’s Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will address the gathering around 6pm today.

Arrangements for the public gathering have been finalised, while strict security measures have been ensured to avoid any eventuality.

Around 1,200 policemen will perform their duties under supervision of the Senior Superintendent (SSP) Ghotki.

The jalsagah has been decorated with the party flags and pictures of the party leaders, while 50,000 chairs have been placed for the people.

Last week,Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari had said that the rulers should refrain from ending 18th Constitutional Amendment and threatened to topple the government.

Bilawal made the statement while addressing a public meeting in connection with the 40th death anniversary of former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.

He blamed the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) led-federal government over the rise in inflation, saying that essential commodities like wheat, pulses and rice were now out of reach of a common man.

The PPP chairman termed the cases against the PPP leadership as ‘political engineering’ and ‘political revenge’. He claimed that the courts were well aware of the ‘fake’ cases’.
