Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Tuesday urged the authorities concerned to start with “prime minister-select”, if they actually wanted to arrest “professional beggars”.
He said this in response to a tweet by the Islamabad deputy commissioner regarding action against professional beggars in the federal capital’s F-10 and F-11 sectors. “This government intends to get rid of the poor, instead of poverty,” the PPP chairman said in his tweet. “If professional beggars are to be arrested actually, then start with PM-select.”
