Former president and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari has lashed out at former prime minister and PTI chief Imran Khan, accusing him of being habitually prone to taking U-turns, a trait that Zardari strongly disapproves of.
In a media talk in Vehari on Monday, Zardari claimed that he could talk to all political leaders except for Imran Khan because of his penchant for taking U-turns. He added that Imran Khan had done a few things as a prime minister that needed to be stopped, and had he not been stopped, he would have “sold more institutions”.

Zardari also expressed his reservations about the ongoing digital census in Pakistan, saying that the PPP had its own opinion about the matter. He maintained that the PPP was part of the coalition government and not the Pakistan Democratic Alliance (PDM).
Regarding the recent remarks made by his son Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari about quitting the government, Zardari dismissed them as an outburst of youthful anger. He added that Bilawal was a young man who gets angry quickly, whereas he himself was used to enduring anger
