BHIMBER: The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Tuesday accused the Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif of running the country like a monarch.

“Sharif Dynasty does not want the institutions to be strengthened. The government is interfering in every organisation. This so called elected and democratic government is ruling like monarchs,” Bilawal said, while addressing a PPP rally in connection with the upcoming general election in the AJK.

Bilawal urges PM to step down for transparent Panama Papers probe

He said Nawaz Sharif disregarded the Charter of Democracy and if it had been followed, the country would have been in a much better state. “The country needed a Benazir for the premiership who could confront the world and tell them that the nation wants a peaceful Pakistan,” he added.

He said there were few personalities in the human history like Benazir Bhutto who became a symbol of struggle against dictatorship. “She turned the impossible into possible. I have a firm belief that people cannot forget Shaheed Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir,” he added.

Nisar failed in his plan to become prime minister, says Bilawal

Questioning utility of the prime minister, Bilawal said if the country could be run without a prime minister for a whole month then what was the need of such a prime minister.

Khalid Latif | 8 years ago | Reply Bilawal seems to be way behind the current affairs. The (N)' governing like kings is a very old and often repeated piece of information by almost all opposition leaders. The sence behind this statement is not understood. What should or can the poor citizens do in this regard? By now, the people know that such obsolete and used statements are repeated to get the public attention and provide no benefit or help in restoring proper governance. It is appearing evident that the opposition will fail in its attempt of Nawaz group's accountability or Nawaz may get his and his family's name cleared of the Panama Papers, during his stay in London. The opposition's statements and public speeches will fetch nothing.
