‘Govt not afraid of any long march’, Farrukh tells opposition

ISLAMABAD: Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Farrukh Habib said that the incumbent government has remained nonchalant about a long march or other protests by opposition parties.

In an interview with a private news channel, he stated that the opposition’s agenda is not the welfare of the people, but rather the protection of their own vested interests.

According to the Minister of State, the Pakistan Peoples Party has been in power in Sindh for over a decade, but the people of the province are still deprived of basic necessities of life.

In response to a question, he stated that the Pakistan Electronic Crimes Act does not apply to individuals and that the opposition should submit proposals to improve it rather than criticising the government.

Note that, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari accompanied by other party leaders set off the ‘Awami Long March’ of his party on Sunday against the Imran Khan government.

The Long March, led by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, will reach Hyderabad today, which is currently in Badin.
