ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on Sunday hit back at Prime Minister Imran Khan’s remarks regarding ‘cries arising from Sindh’ and said the people were crying because of faulty policies of the federal government.

In his tweet, Mr Bhutto-Zardari said not cries but hollers were arising from Sindh and they will topple the [Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf] government.

Prime Minister Imran Khan had on Friday announced launching a massive crackdown against money launderers and without naming anyone said that the crackdown was yet to be launched but cries had already started arising from Sindh.

The PPP chairman said in his tweet: “Yes hollers were coming out of Sindh as being the top gas producer, Sindh is not receiving gas.”

He said shrieks were coming out from whole Pakistan because of an increase in the prices of gas, electricity and petroleum products.

“Yes shrieks [are] arising from Sindh because agriculture and industries are on the verge of destruction,” Mr Bhutto-Zardari said. “Yes shrieks are arising because the province is not receiving its share in water,” he added.

Bilawal has failed us Sindhis by aligning with corrupt Zardari system. He is going to go down for defending the family's corruption. I hope he sees that before its too late.

The boy cant even speak urdu and is a chairman because of his birth. He had no leadership qualities and even shouts like his grandfather. He is a zardari not a Bhutto. But its an easier ticket to ride the Bhutto train. Why is he even news

The current situation is a result of the policies of last several years. It wouldn’t be for another 6-12 months that we start to feel the impact of PTIs policies. One has only to look at Sindh and ask the Sindhis if PPP has been any better. Karachi used to be one of the top 20 metropolitan cities to live in the world in the 60s. Now it is in the bottom 20. PPP has ruled Sindh since the 70s. Sad record there.

Bilawal zardari is so unwise and ignorant of Pakistani politics that he continues to defend his corrupt father zardari and thinks that people of Sind don’t know who stole their money. He is pushed into the title of the head of ppp. He is a person who is raised on dishonest money all his life.

Some one else wrote those tweets. Bilawal can't write Urdu. Similarly when he spoke in last jalsa on BB's anniversary, it was a script written by someone else that he was forced to read.

This kid doesn’t know history or suffering of Pakistani people that his corrupt-to-the-core father and Uncle Nawaz have heaped on them. He should try living a normal life which is without the privileges he takes for granted and then maybe some ill-informed people will take a note what he has to say. He is ruining his Grandfather’s legacy.

I really wished Bilawal would follow his own instincts instead of his father. He is well education (in politics) person and can be a future leader of the country. How do we miss the facts that what is right and what is wrong.
