He arrived at Mohenjo-daro Airport where President PPP Sindh Senator Nisar Ahmed Khuhro, MPA Suhail Ahmed Siyal and others received the Chairman PPP. On April 4 (Tuesday), the main event of the anniversary will be held at Naudero House, where af­ter Quran recitation and Iftar would be observed.

Foreign Minister and Chair­man Pakistan People’s Par­ty Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will address the workers on the occasion.

While talking to report­ers, Foreign Minister Bilaw­al Bhutto Zardari expressed concerns that the country could face a ‘martial law or an emergency-like situation’ due to the constitutional cri­sis that might occur if the Su­preme Court does not consti­tute a larger bench to hear the PTI’s petition against the Elec­tion Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) decision to postpone polls to the Punjab Assembly.

“My concern is that if a larg­er bench is not constituted then such a constitutional cri­sis will be born that God for­bid martial law or emergen­cy-type situation [could be] imposed again on Pakistan,” FM Bilawal said and acknowl­edged that he was making ‘a big statement.’ Bilawal, whose media talk came after the top court reserved its verdict, said there was still time for every­one to “come back to their senses”.

He said that the institutions’ conduct should benefit the nation and “for that, it is nec­essary that our honourable judges form a full court to an­swer this important question [regarding the election date].”

Bilawal said the impact of a decision by “three individu­als” would be different from that of a larger bench, urg­ing the apex court to consider the prevalent situation in the country.
