Lahore:
In the midst of a festive national mood after the military success of Pakistan against India at the borders, the senior PPP manager Qamar Zaman Kaira, without naming PTI, said that it was high time to fill the political gap.
He advised Khan’s party to make amends and called on the government to adopt a policy of forgiveness.
At the same press conference, the secretary general of the central PPP of Punjab, Syed Hasan Murtaza, blowing the Minister of Information of Punjab, Azma Bukhari, for having credited Nawaz Sharif of war planning, said that “at least you have to be in a few limits”. He said that repeated lies, if they are not exposed publicly, are starting to look like the truth.
Murtaza said that the real credit for the defense of invincible Pakistan belonged to the management of the PPP.
“If there is a part that played a role in the strengthening of the defense of Pakistan-of the signing of the memorandum of understanding for the JF-17 to the construction of heavy industries, from weapons to tanks, from the missile planes-it is the PPP,” he said.
He credited the late Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and late Benazir Bhutto, saying that Bhutto launched the atomic program of Pakistan, a decision that finally cost him his life. “Anyone can explode a bomb and assign the merit.”
Mountaza said other parties could best take credit for simply continuing the defense programs launched by PPP governments. “Others should try to claim their success by publishing photos,” he added. He also took a jibe to Rana Sanaullah to “wrongly claim that the war was over on May 7”.
