PPP co-chairperson Asif Zardari has promised the people of Talagang in Punjab a chance to earn money in Pakistan instead of going abroad.

“We will give you the chance to earn here,” the former president said while addressing a party rally, adding that he would give them their due agricultural earnings.

Highlighting how he served the people during his time in power, Zardari said the PPP always paid heed to the voice of the poor. “We made a card in the name of Benazir Bhutto to help poor women,” he said.

Zardari said he was aware that the people of Talagang needed water, infrastructure, passport offices, and also a place to visit the commissioner and his deputy.

“We will do this for you. The love you showed me for two days will never be forgotten,” he said.
