Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto stressed on Sunday the inevitability of judicial reforms and the urgent need for politicians to come together to tackle the nation's challenges.
Speaking at a seminar in Lahore regarding the Bhutto reference, Bilawal Bhutto stressed the PPP's adherence to most aspects of the Charter of Democracy, with only judicial reforms remaining unaddressed.
He acknowledged the government's endeavours to introduce constitutional amendments for judicial reform and emphasized parliament's pivotal role in leading such initiatives.
Bilawal Bhutto lamented the deterioration of politics in Pakistan into personal animosity, where dissenting views are disregarded.
He underscored the PPP's dedication to democratic progress and expressed concern over the reluctance of politicians to collaborate, which impedes effective problem-solving.
Reflecting on the PPP's contributions to Pakistan's constitutional framework, including the Constitution of 1973 and the 18th Amendment, Bilawal Bhutto reiterated the party's willingness to take necessary steps for systemic improvement.
The former foreign minister stressed the imperative for politicians to prioritize national interests over personal agendas, advocating for a departure from divisive politics.
Bilawal Bhutto highlighted the PPP's resilience in the face of criticism during election campaigns, noting the subsequent adoption of similar approaches by other governments as evidence of the party's success.
He urged politicians to transcend self-interest and focus on collective efforts towards Pakistan's betterment, rather than engaging in divisive rhetoric.
