PPP Chairman and former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has asserted that the federal, Punjab and Balochistan governments cannot be formed without the PPP. Talking to talking a private news channel today, he said the PPP had representation in all the provinces, adding that it would be premature to say who is forming the government. \u201cWe don\u2019t know the whole count nor have independents announced their decisions,\u201d Bilawal added. \u201cNo government will be able to solve the public\u2019s problems without addressing the political toxicity.\u201d He was of the view that it would be beneficial for the country if a political consensus was formed between all the parties. \u201cThe central executive committee of PPP had named me as the PM candidate but if we have to change that another meeting needs to be called and we will decide on how to move forward,\u201d Bilawal concluded. PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that his party has not had any official conversation with PML-N, the PTI or any other political parties on a possible coalition. The former foreign minister accepted that his party would not be able to form a government by itself. When asked if he or his father Asif Zardari had any meeting with PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif, Bilawal said: \u201cI am in no position to confirm any such meeting. When all the results are in front of us, we will be in a position to engage with others.\u201d Bilawal also made it clear that no independent candidate from the PTI bloc had contacted him or any PPP leader so far. \u201cWe are in touch with some independents but no independent from the PTI bloc has contacted us so far,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
