Pakistan: As presidential election campaign is around the corner, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari campaigns for father.

Pakistan People’s Party chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari campaign efforts for his father on the eve of presidential election, hosting lawmakers from the National Assembly and Senate at Sindh House in Islamabad.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan’s Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, Istehkham-e-Pakistan Party President Aleem Khan, Balochistan People’s Party President Khalid Magsi, and Professor Sajid Mir. Notably, Pakistan Muslim League(Z) President Ijazul Haq was not invited to the event.

PM Shehbaz assured Zardari of full support of his party’s lawmakers in both the central government and Punjab.

Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari also engaged with Punjab CM Maryam Nawaz Sharif and provincial assembly members. Bilawal emphasized the need for national reconciliation, calling for a departure from the divisive politics that had led to a significant rift in the nation.

Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz echoed the sentiments, criticizing PTI founder Imran Khan and outgoing President Arif Alvi for their perceived partisanship. She asserted that the presidency required someone like Asif Ali Zardari and criticized Alvi for allegedly protecting PTI’s interests and abrogating the Constitution.
