KKARACHI —Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said Tuesday that only the people of Sindh could decide the province’s future, adding that its people and elected representatives had already made their position clear.
Speaking to the media in Karachi, Bilawal expressed concern over the country’s economic situation, saying inflation and unemployment were placing a heavy burden on the public. He said the federal government was working to reduce inflation, while the Sindh government was also taking measures to ease the economic difficulties faced by residents.
Bilawal welcomed the reopening of Spencer Eye Hospital in Karachi under a public-private partnership, saying the facility would provide free treatment for eye diseases. He praised the Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) for taking practical steps to deliver public services, saying local governments that actively worked to facilitate citizens were uncommon.

The PPP chairman said expensive medical treatment created serious difficulties for many families and stressed that governments had a responsibility to make healthcare more accessible. He added that improving healthcare facilities and reducing the financial burden on citizens remained important priorities for the Sindh government.
Bilawal seeks relief from high electricity bills. Commenting on rising electricity prices, Bilawal said power bills had become difficult for ordinary citizens to pay. He said he wished the entire Lyari area could be shifted to solar energy to help residents escape the burden of high electricity bills.
Bilawal said the Sindh government was working to provide solar energy facilities to residents of Lyari. He added that the PPP would ask the federal government to extend relief to areas of Lyari affected by power outages.
He stressed the need for measures to address economic hardship, improve healthcare and reduce electricity costs for the public. Asked about the proposed 28th Constitutional Amendment, Bilawal said no discussions had taken place between his party and the government on the matter.
