In a style reminiscent of his grandfather and mother, the chairperson of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, visited Dadu, Sindh, and chanted ‘Jeay Bhutto’ as he met party workers, who eagerly swarmed around his car as it travelled through their neighbourhoods.
Thousands of people came out on the streets to greet the PPP chairperson, excited that they would finally catch a glimpse of Benazir Bhutto’s son.
This was Bilawal’s first visit to Dadu. He visited several towns of the district, including Bhan Saeedabad, Radhan, Phulji Station and Pyaro Goth. At Zardari House in Radhan, he said that he was certain that PPP would win the next election with a majority.
Hundreds of people roared at the confidence with which he made this claim. “Do not fall for the propaganda that you are being fed by the anti-PPP elements. The PPP has popular support across Pakistan.” He claimed that the PPP would form the government.

@ap: off course
PK- in other words are u trying to say ppl who are reading this newspaper are not educated?! Or you seriously believe PPP or Bilawal only has the support of 'Dadu' thats all? What world are you living in buddy? By the way FYI PPP is not the only party which exists in interior Sindh.. These poor people have the right to vote for any party they like and there must be a reason they would vote for them. Maybe if u ever visited these places u would know what Im exactly talking about. My suggestion is if you think you're 'educated' enough then you should definitely vote for someone else.
@iPhone:
AMEN
only blind, dum and deaf will vote for him@ehtisham:
Whats the definition of insanity? To keep repeating something over and over again and expecting a different result each time. That is what we Pakistanis are "Insane". This power hungry family will keep fooling us forever because we voting for the same people and expect may be this time they'll do better. WE WISH!!!!!!!
In his first visit, Welcome BY Thousands of people... shows the love of pakistanees with PPP and Bhuttos...Hamid HK..How can some body solve our problems who has never stayed at a stretch even a month in the country?? And why the son of Benazir? why not some other party worker? First PPP should inculcate democracy in its own party and then try for the country.Firstly they should hold elections in the party for the leadership like USA, UK and other democratic countries and then contest the general elections in the country if at all they are following some idealogy!
O ! God teach us to look upon there must bi a judge in all our actions, the actions of own self, home, country & every edge,(the judgement from 1947 to 2012. its my pray to god who is the creator & sustainer of universe,& ISLAMIC PAKISTAN believe we have seen nothing . In elections 2013 that person have to come who realy love PAKISTAN & POOR PEOPLE me not talking about cery rich people.PAKISTAN ZINDABAD.
May Allah grant wisdom to Pakistanis to make sensible decisions..
last elections PPP had BB's death pushing it to victory, this time its going to be Bilawal Bhutto Zardari's presence at election jalsas that will win them votes.
Ironically, PPP will win a larger number of seats in the next elections. Mark it in your diaries.
This is the real leader of the youth.
After spending 5 years in UK they are now visiting these area for getting votes from the Un educated people. Try to visit liyari rather than these areas ! Corrupt ppp
Fake leaders for culturally enslaved people !
Sami
I agree with you. but these people will never learn .
Long live Bhutto
The reaction of opponents shows how scared they are against a young educated kid. In democracy everybody wants to win but the people decide who they actually like. Let us see which party gains at least a couple of seats in each province before they can claim to be a national party let alone making the next govt.
I owe my support to the son of Benazir Bhutto!
Inshallah, Bilawal Bhutto will lead Pakistan to a better tomorrow!
Old wine in a new bottle.. get rid of them for a new and prosperous Pakistan
Our country seems to be in state of hostage by these political dynasties. And if the people indeed are thronging on the streets to catch a glimpse of this prince, then woe unto them. Truly, we deserve these sort of incompetent leaders. Chances are he will one day end up becoming the Prime Minister of Pakistan. And when the masses, who have seen the "glorious performances" of his grand father, his mother and his father, and yet still end up electing him, then there is nothing but darkness as the future of this country. Shame on us for electing these blood sucking parasites to manage our affairs. Pathetic!!!!
Way to go Chairman Bilawal ! PPP 'Will' form the next Federal Government despite venomous propaganda by anti-democratic and theocratic elements ! Jiye Bhutto !
Ya Allah please give some sense to my people.. How come after five years of suffering from his father, they are out to support his son.. They have destroyed the country in every aspect and will vanish the remaining if they come to power again.. I think education is the main problem we have right now... if people get educated , they will not vote for these culprits anymore.
Long Live Bilawal Bhutto Zardari,,,Long Live Pakistan,,,,a True Young Leader,,,,We must vote for BBZ in the elections of 2013
Hahahahahaha
We don't need leaders who lived all their lives outside country and then claim to fix the problems they have no ideas about. No more please.
