Islamabad: Chairman Pakistan People’s Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Monday called Jamiat Ulema-e Islam (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman and discussed about the political situation in the country.

The Chairman PPP said that the government was deliberately testing the #COVID_19 in lesser numbers and trying to mislead the world by hiding the factual statistics from the international community. The federal government has also forgotten the issue of locusts.

With the JUI Chief, the Chairman PPP discussed, too, about the anti-people budget. The earlir, invited the Chairman PPP to attend the All Parties Conference to be held in Sindh. The APC will be held on July 9 in Sindh under the auspics of JUI.
Apart from this, an important video link meeting was also held at the Bilawal House, Lahore under the chairmanship of Chairman PPP.

While, addressing the meeting, the party chairman directed the party leaders that in order to convey the correct facts to the people, it was necessary to present the position of the PPP in a polite manner. The baseless allegations of corruption against the PPP should be answered bluntly as the PPP leaders have never been found guilty of corruption and have been honorably acquitted of all charges while the leaders of other political parties have been found guilty of corruption.

The PPP chairman condemned the firing on journalists protesting against the closure of Channel 24 and said that PEMRA security personnel had proved by firing on journalists what their policy was regarding free media.

The PTI government is restricting the airing of the independent anchors with independent views. The PTI government’s attempt to make the #COVID_19 non-issue should be thwarted, said the Chairman PPP adding that the statistics and facts testify that the performance of the PPP government has been much better than other governments so the party leaders should highlight the achievements of the PPP governments in the media.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari expressed the hope that the anchors should show impartiality and bring the position of all parties to the fore.
