LAHORE: Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari will address a public meeting in Multan on March 10 in connection with its ongoing protest against the government for not meeting its four demands.

Presiding over a meeting of party representatives of the south at the Bilawal House on Saturday, he said all resources of Punjab were being spent on Lahore. The PML-N government was making projects which suited rulers and not the masses.

He said he had come out to rid the people of the rulers of Takht-i-Lahore. He sought the support of the masses to send the Sharif brothers packing.

Bilawal earlier staged a rally from Lahore to Faisalabad to press the government to accept its four demands — appointment of a full-fledged foreign minister, formation of a parliamentary committee on national security, passage of opposition’s bill seeking investigation into the Panama issue and implementation of the resolution passed by a multi-party conference on the CPEC held in May last year.

During the meeting, former PML-Q MPA from south Punjab (Bahawalpur) Imran Gardezi joined PPP.
