KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Wednesday said that the younger generation was fully prepared to challenge the PTI-led federal government and fight to oust the “incompetent and illegitimate prime minister who has been imposed on them”.

While speaking at a student's convention under the aegis of Sindh People's Student Federation (SPSF) at the Karachi Arts Council Auditorium, Bilawal said that the SPSF office-bearers and workers through years of unshaken nerve-writhing struggle have acquired the right to form a union of which they had been deprived by former military dictator General Ziaul Haque.

The PPP chairman said that the youth with right to vote and do politics is more powerful than tanks and armored vehicles because they can change the entire scenario which tanks can't.

"Student unions are our first step, and when the students are organized, they will fight for the solution of their problems, but if there is a PPP government, you will run the government yourself," he added.

Highlighting his party's future plans, he said that his government would set up youth centers in every district, providing space for cultural and sports activities as well as career counseling. "Students work hard to get a degree, but then they also need career counseling."

He further said that the February 27 march of the party will carry the demand of restoration of students union all over Pakistan.
