KARACHI: PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said on Wednesday that the recent meeting between the military and political leadership was held to discuss administrative matters pertaining to Gilgit-Baltistan.
The PPP leader revealed this during a news conference, where he spoke about the meeting said Army chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa desired free and transparent polls in Gilgit-Baltistan.
Bilawal came down hard on “some irresponsible people” who were part of the meeting, for discussing sensitive matters pertaining to national security issues and foreign policy issues on TV.” Whoever’s spokesperson he is, they should tell him to be quiet at once,” said the PPP chairman.
“And refrain from issuing any irresponsible statements,” Bilawal said that it was necessary for political parties to attend meetings on national security matters.
He criticized Prime Minister Imran Khan for “failing to engage the opposition” on such important issues pertaining to national security.
