PESHAWAR: Pakistan People’s Party co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari has asked the party workers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to extend full support to the internally displaced persons (IDPs) of North Waziristan Agency and share their moment of pleasure with the affected families on the occasion of Eidul Fitr.

According to a statement issued from the PPP secretariat here on Monday, Mr Zardari said that PPP was the only party which was raising voice for the rights of poor and majority of its workers belonged to low income group. He said that by supporting the affected and displaced people the party itself would prove that it believed in supporting the depressed, oppressed and marginalized class of the society.
