Punjab Information Minister Uzma Bukhari, while reacting to the statement of Senior Sindh Minister Sharjeel Memon, has said that Bilawal Bhutto, despite being the Foreign Minister, was undermining the roots of his party, the federal government and the Prime Minister. Those who do not have a father and son in their own home want to cover up their sins by making frivolous insults in our home.
In one of her statements, Uzma Bukhari accepted Sharjeel Memon’s challenge and said that the place and time are of your choice, but you will come yourself, do not hide behind any proxy. Your narrative of dirty politics on the flood victims of Punjab has failed. Now you have brought a narrative of “puffs and snipes” against the Prime Minister. Did the Prime Minister ask you to do politics on the flood victims of Punjab?
Uzma Bukhari said that even while Bilawal Bhutto was the Foreign Minister, he was undermining the roots of his party, the federal government and the Prime Minister. The nation still remembers him. Those who do not have a father and son in their own homes want to cover up their sins by making useless insults in our homes.
She said that you are such a child that the Punjab government is pushing you to conspire against the federation and you are not being a part of it? You yourself are conspiring against the federation and against Punjab too. When you start getting jealous of the development of Punjab, then you start conspiring.
The Punjab Information Minister said that when you are asked about your performance, you start playing the provincial card. Playing the South Punjab card and playing the Benazir Income Support card is not politics but filth. South Punjab is still better and more developed than any area of Inner Sindh.
Uzma Bukhari said that the entire PPP including Bilawal and Asifa are addressing Punjab and talking about BISP, yet they are brazenly saying that we talk to the federation, when we talk to you about Karachi’s garbage collection, road breakdowns or corruption in the solar panel project, they bring the linguistic card and the Mursi Mursi card, you are interfering in the affairs of Punjab, don’t be so innocent.
She said that blackmailing the federation and Punjab with threats and by organizing paid protests is your distinction, who are you to give orders to Punjab, keep your orders and advice in your pocket, whenever local government elections are held in Punjab, they will not be bogus like Karachi, so keep your deadline in your pocket, you are trying to fight by forcefully entering a province.
Uzma Bukhari said that my water is my will, just like you don’t give me water, you can use water day and night and let us use water as you want in Punjab, then it won’t happen, Waderaism and not allowing the children of poor farmers to study are not acceptable in elections, if you were not afraid of Maryam Nawaz’s popularity, there would be no need for a press conference today even on a holiday.
She said that did PPP Punjab and Sindh help the flood victims even a little? You sent insults to the flood victims and made a spectacle of their deprivations, this is Punjab, not Sindh, where the work of days is done in years, in Punjab, the work of years is done in days, you are still selling the flood of 2022.
Uzma Bukhari said that checks have started being received where surveys have been conducted in Punjab, those who are getting relief are praying for Maryam Nawaz and thanking her, sometimes take off the glasses of hatred and prejudice and look at Punjab.
