KARACHI: Foreign Minister and PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari stated on Thursday that his party has praised the establishment’s decision to maintain its apolitical posture and hoped that the move would continue.

Following the party’s central executive committee (CEC) meeting at Bilawal House Karachi, the PPP chairman spoke at a press conference.

General (retd) Bajwa, a former commander of the Indian Army, had expressed confidence in the long-term benefits of the “political quarantine of the military services” last year.

The institutional decision to stay apolitical will remain unwavering, according to Bajwa, who previously stated this in an interview with Gulf News. “Despite some criticism and excessive vilification of the armed forces through mass media and painstakingly designed false narratives,

The government agency was accused of interfering in the politics of the nation and frequently favouring one political party over another, which led to the remark from Bajwa.
The PPP chairman applauded the establishment’s choice to maintain its apolitical stance during his press conference on Thursday.

“It is commendable that the establishment has opted not to become involved in politics. The establishment’s pledge to maintain its apolitical stance is encouraging, he said.

He continued, “We also want to prevent non-political individuals from meddling in the political affairs of the nation.

“[We] expect that the establishment will continue its pattern of remaining apolitical.”
In his remarks on the nation’s law and order, the Bhutto scion emphasised that terrorists should be dealt like criminals.

In order to decide on a course of action, he asked Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, Speaker of the National Assembly, to convene a national security meeting in the parliament.

In response to a query, Bilawal stated that he would keep working to improve the Constitution and was unafraid of the threat made by the outlawed TTP.

The TTP had previously stated that if the PPP and PML-N “continued to be the slaves of the army,” it would consider taking “concrete steps” against their “leadership persons.”

“We will keep fighting extremism and have no fear of dying. The globe over, these terrorists and fanatics have slandered my nation and faith, Bilawal claimed.

He continued, “We think that the adversaries of Pakistan are terrorism and extremism.
He claimed that conversations with the terrorists were not possible.

The PPP chairman referred to the horrific 2014 APS event and declared that he will keep labelling those responsible for the martyrdom of the innocent children as terrorists.
“We’ve battled terrorists before, and we’ll do it again.”

Bilawal stated that while they opposed early voting, they would “openly oppose” any delay in the general elections.

He declared that PPP detested “division” politics and was prepared to sign a “code of conduct” with all parties in order to address the problems facing the nation through the document in the parliament.

In addition to wanting to strengthen the local government system, the PPP chairman stated that his party wants to keep working with the MQM-P.

He claimed that the governor of Sindh and the administrator of Karachi had been chosen in accordance with the MQM-commitment. P’s

Time, according to him, would demonstrate the MQM-P and PSP’s “neutrality.”

Bilawal commended the current administration, claiming that Premier Shehbaz Sharif and his economic team had prevented a default, and blamed PTI Chairman Imran Khan for the nation’s skyrocketing inflation.

If Pervaiz Elahi wants to keep his position as Punjab’s chief minister, he would need to ask for the vote of confidence, the speaker claimed.
