PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari on Sunday expressed his hope of forming a government in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), seeking “better results” from the public in the upcoming elections than in the previous one.

He made the remarks while addressing a public rally in AJK’s Kotli ahead of the regional elections set for July 27.

The PPP chairperson said that his party had contested the last election in AJK even when the PTI was in power in the Centre.

“During the last elections, the PPP had the majority seats and the party had won the elections, but now the conditions are different,” he said.

“For the past six months, the PPP has been in government in AJK, and our friend, Shehbaz Sharif, has been in power at the Centre for some year,” he noted, referring to the ruling coalition led by PML-N.
