PPP co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari has strongly condemned the “spewing of venom” against state institutions, saying that an attack on the country’s institutions will not be tolerated under any circumstances.

In a statement shared on PPP’s Twitter, he, apparently referring to PTI chief Imran Khan, said: “A man is crossing every line to spread anarchy in this country. This man neither cares about the country’s integrity nor its institutions.

“He cannot see anything but power.”

Zardari also vowed not to let the “conspiracy” against state institutions succeed.

“The survival of a country depends on the survival of its institutions and we will not tolerate any attack on them under any circumstance.”
