Lahore, Feb. 5 (TNS): Pakistan Peoples’ Party Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari on Monday predicted that his party will come into power after upcoming general polls.
The former president was addressing a rally at Lahore’s historic Mochi Gate ground on Monday to express the party’s support for the Kashmiri struggle against Indian state brutality.
“We will win from Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sindh and Punjab,” said the PPP co-chairman in his address.
The former president also vowed to the public that the next elections will be free and fair, adding that no one will go home without casting vote.
“In the previous rally, I had said that we can topple your government,” said Zardari while referring to the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz.
The former president, taking a dig at the ruling party, said: “Mian Sahab, you no longer rule in Balochistan.”
Zardari said that the PML-N leaders do not comprehend the idea of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. “They think it is a scheme for taking loans,” he added.
Zardari further said that for the sake of democracy, the PPP leaders faced jails.
While referring to the occupied valley, Zardari said ‘Kashmir is our jugular vein’.
The PPP co-chairman added that today he is standing at the same place where in the past renowned leaders such as Mohammad Ali Jinnah, Liaquat Ali Khan, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto stood.
