Bilawal Bhutto admits elections 2024 were not ‘transparent’

QUETTA (HRNW) Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari termed the general elections 2024 as ‘not transparent’ but rejected the allegation that the largest rigging took place in Pakistan’s history on February 8, media reported.

Addressing a presser in Quetta, the PPP chairman said that rigging was done in every single election against his party.

The PPP chairman; however, rejected the allegations of widespread rigging in the 8th February’s general election. He said that to end the ‘cycle of rigging’ in elections, politicians need to reach a consensus.

“The politicians need to agree that the match should be played fairly and the result should also be accepted,” Bilawal added.

Bilawal said that the PPP is playing a leading role in election reforms, but sometimes a party or a politician tries to hinder the process.

He said that cases related to election rigging are being heard in election tribunals. Bilawal said that Sindh government has done ‘significant’ work in the health sector, vowing to do the same in Balochistan

He added that the PPP will provide relief to the people of Balochistan and ensure that they have access to quality healthcare and education.

“The PPP has done a lot of work in the health sector in Sindh as a state-of-the-art hospital is established in Gambat for liver transplants.  The hospital in Naseerabad, Balochhistan will be on par with the one in Gambat, “ Bilawal added.
