LAHORE: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Tuesday claimed that dictatorship has prevailed in the country in the garb of what Prime Minister Imran Khan called 'Naya Pakistan’.

“The present regime gave nothing to its masses ether than starvation,” said Bilawal while addressing the lawyer's community on the invitation of Peoples Lawyers Forum at Lahore High Court's Dr Javed Iqbal Auditorium.

Bilawal emphasised that the ‘concerned quarters’ give right of appeal to the aggrieved party against the decision handed in Suo Muto proceedings.

Talking about the services of the legal fraternity, he said that the bar council always had been raising voice against dictatorship. He admired the lawyer's profession and the sacrifices laid down by them adding, "Quaid -e-Azam was also a lawyer who gave us Pakistan".

Expressing gloom over the judicial killing of party founder Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, he said that “it is regrettable that a man who gave Pakistan its Constitution was made subject to the judicial killing”.
