ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Friday said that Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari instead of defending corruption, should stand up against the menace of graft and prove his love for the country.
While taking to Twitter, Dr Firdous said that Bilawal talked about presidential system, 18th Amendment, human rights, and expressed worry for the poor and farmers when the corruption of his family was exposed.
بلاول بھٹو کرپشن کا دفاع کرنے کی بجائے کرپشن کے خلاف کھڑے ہو کر ملک سے محبت کا ثبوت دیں، صدارتی نظام کے متعلق گفتگو، اٹھارویں ترمیم، انسانی حقوق، جمہوریت کا خیال غریبوں اور کسانوں پر ترس انہیں صرف تب آتا ہے جب ان کی کرپشن پر ہاتھ پڑتا ہے۔

Pakistan is a sacred trust of Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and those who breached that trust deserved no mercy, she added.
The aide of Prime Minister Imran Khan went on to say that those elements which violated that trust and built their castles by plundering national wealth, made the poor segments of the society poorer.
Earlier in the day, Bilawal once again hit out at the Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehree-e-Insaf (PTI) government, saying there is only “one umpire in this country and that is the people”.
While talking about the possibility of a presidential system and the roll back of the 18th Amendment, the PPP top leader reiterated that “any such move will be resisted by PPP”.
