HYDERABAD, Nov 30: The People’s Party Parliamentarians has warned the government not to create hurdles in the return of party chairperson Benazir Bhutto. Speaking at a party’s founding day programme held in Qasimabad on Wednesday night, PPP leaders urged the party leadership to hold accountability within the party and not to allow turncoats in the party again.

Sindh PPP president Syed Qaim Ali Shah presided over the function.

The party’s provincial general secretary Nafees Siddiqui, MNAs Naveed Qamar, Manzoor Wasan, Anwar Bhutto, Fauzia Wahab, Pir Aftab Shah Jillani, MPAs Makhdoom Jamiluzzaman, Sassui Palijo, Nuzhat Pathan, Ayaz Soomro, Ghulam Qadir Chandio and Mahreen Bhutto and other leaders spoke on the occasion.

They paid tribute to the late Zulfikar Ali Bhutto for founding the party to create awareness among the masses and give them their fundamental rights.

The Sindh party chief assured workers that their grievances would be redressed.

He said the government wanted to demoralize workers by implicating them in false cases.

He said the PPP would restore dignity of institutions like the judiciary as all important organizations had been destroyed. About the donors’ conference, he said that 90 per cent of the aid pledged was in loan.
