Bilawal Slams Disputed Projects Urges Consensus

Bilawal Slams Disputed Projects Urges Consensus

“If the reservations of Sindh and Baluchistan are not considered the project will become disputed,” Bilawal Bhutto said in a video statement.

“Don’t plan the projects that become disputed like Kalabagh Dam,” he said. PPP chairman said that instead of launching disputed projects all stakeholders should be taken into confidence.

He urged for creating consensus in provinces to ensure the success of the Green Pakistan initiative.

Imposing one’s opinion by force will cause political instability and it hurts the economy, Bilawal Bhutto said.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari yesterday declined a meeting with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, requested by the federal government following his criticism.

Bilawal said that his refusal was not based on personal issues with the government but stemmed from the concerns of his voters and provincial governments. He emphasized that the PPP had grievances with the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) over its handling of administrative matters in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).

Bilawal also raised concerns over the federal government’s approach towards the development plans in Sindh and Baluchistan, highlighting the PPP’s reservations over the Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP) in these provinces.

On Wednesday, the PPP chairman also formed a committee to raise grievances with the federal government.
