Lashing out at Imran Khan, the PPP chairman said that the people of Pakistan "are being made to bear the burden of the government's failures and its slogan for 'change', adding that the people of PoK are facing Khan's inflation tsunami.
"This cowardly puppet has actually become a security risk," he said during the rally.
He further claimed that not only will there be a prime minister in PoK from PPP, but the party "will also have a prime minister in Pakistan", according to Geo News.
"Make our jiyala the prime minister and you will first and foremost see an increase in salaries," Bilawal said.
