PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari stated that Prime Minister Imran Khan should have attended the National Assembly session that was held yesterday to debate on the country's tackling of the coronavirus outbreak.

"PM Imran should have attended and explained his point of view because he is the leader of the government [...] he want workers, labourers to go to work but will not step outside to fulfill his basic duty."

Commenting on leader of the opposition Shehbaz Sharif's absence, the PPP chairman said that the PML-N leader's absence was justified as he has pre-exisiting health conditions.
