Islamabad: Pakistan's key opposition leader and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has declared a ‘war’ on the 'selected government' of Imran Khan and accused him of being elected as the Prime Minister of the country illegally.

PPP chairman Bhutto was quoted as saying by The Dawn while addressing party workers in the Chowk Bahadurpur area on GT Road on Wednesday night: "We have entered Punjab. The PPP was founded in Punjab and its Jiyalas are brave and loyal who never bowed before General Zia and General Musharraf."

Accompanied by Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah, PPP south Punjab president Makhdoom Syed Ahmed Mehmood and other party leaders, Bhutto-Zardari said the title of ‘selected’ that he had given to Khan became the identity of the “thief of flour, sugar, fertiliser, gas and petrol”.

He said the prime minister had reduced the prices of petrol and electricity after seeing the “Awami March of Jiyalas”.

He told the crowd that some politicians after taking ministries had sold the south Punjab issue.
