KARACHI: PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that People’s Party is committed to making a South Punjab province in accordance with aspirations of the people of area.

Mr Bilawal expressed these views during a meeting with Law Minister Farooq H. Naek and PPP South Punjab president Makhdoom Shahabuddin. The two PPP leaders had called on Mr Bilawal separately here on Wednesday.

Mr Bilawal hoped the initiative taken by the PPP would ultimately help provide rights to the people of south Punjab.

Would anyone ask Bilawal to keep quite and do his studies until he knows more to talk about?

A Good thing, new provinces, but you should also think close to home, if you like here then its ok there, Maybe we should divide Punjab into 5 Provinces, Sindh into 3, KP and Balochistan into 2 each. What will the baby Politician say now, " Sindh shall never be divided"
