Zardari expresses regret over absence of ‘ideal democracy’ in Pakistan

HUB: Former president and co-chairman of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) on Sunday Asif Ali Zardari asserted that only politicians possess a deep understanding of Pakistan's issues and stressed that democracy is the only solution to the prevailing crises.

Speaking at a public gathering in connection with the 2024 elections, Zardari highlighted that despite facing injustices, the PPP has consistently avoided advocating for confrontation. He affirmed the party's unwavering commitment to fighting for democracy.

Expressing regret over the absence of an "ideal democracy" in the country, Zardari pointed out that only politicians are truly aware of the genuine issues confronting Pakistan.

Discussing Balochistan, the PPP co-chairman pledged to safeguard the rights of the province's residents. He noted that although the provincial budget had been increased fourfold, its impact was not visible anywhere.

Zardari expressed optimism that with improvements in the law and order situation in Hub, investors would be drawn to the region, leading to prosperity similar to that of Karachi.

He concluded by emphasizing that the survival of Balochistan is intricately linked to democracy and urged for an explanation to those who have chosen armed struggle as a means of addressing issues.
