Summary The leader said that more than 50,000 people missed the rally as they were stuck at National Highway

ISLAMABD (Dunya News) – Opposition Leader in National Assembly Khursheed Shah on Wednesday said that Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has put down the pride of those parties who claimed to hold big rallies.

Talking about PPP rally at Parade Ground, Khursheed Shah said that half workers were present inside the venue and half were outside the ground. Caravans from other cities were unable to reach the spot due to traffic jam, he continued.

The leader said that more than 50,000 people missed the rally as they were stuck at National Highway.

Khursheed Shah further expressed hope that PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will do politics like his grandfather Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto.

Talking on National Accountability Bureau (NAB) references against ex-prime minister Nawaz Sharif, opposition leader said that name of not a single member of Sharif family is in Exit Control List (ECL) and that they will never be arrested. 

Earlier, addressing a public rally in the federal capital, Asif Ali Zardari said that disqualified premier Nawaz Sharif had come to power with ‘fake’ mandate in General Elections 2013. He said that he would not come for Nawaz Sharif’s rescue but fight him in the elections.

He alleged Sharif of bankrupting the country and that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan has nothing to offer to the people of Pakistan. He asserted that both ‘Godfather’ and the ‘bogus Khan’ are unable to understand that everything is due to the workers of political parties.

Whatever is going to happen, it is going to happen owing to the votes, Zardari added.
