Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Thursday said Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf's (PTI) Imran Khan may have surrendered on the issue of Panama Papers but the PPP will fight for accountability.

“Imran Khan may surrender on Panama leaks but PPP will fight for accountability,” said Bilawal while addressing party workers at a gathering in Rahim Yar Khan.

The PPP scion also said that Panama Papers are the world’s biggest corruption scandal and Nawaz Sharif will have to held accountable for it.

“Takht-i-Lahore does not care about poor people but Bibi’s (Benazir's) son is here,” he said.

Bilawal, in his address to the party workers, also claimed that positive change has been brought in Sindh.

“PPP has defeated Takht-i-Lahore in local government elections and the PPP will also win the 2018 general elections if workers together worked for it,” he added.

Bilawal Bhutto again repeated his demand for the resignation of Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan over non-implementation of the National Action Plan (NAP).

He was hitting out at NAP that he said is being implemented arbitrarily in the country and seems only to be operating in Karachi.

Referring to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), the PPP chairman termed it as a “gift” from former president Asif Ali Zardari to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.

Earlier today, Bilawal Bhutto visited the injured at Jinnah Post-graduate Medical Centre in Karachi after a train collision left 22 dead and above 65 injured.
