ISLAMABAD: Pakistan People?s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari Friday said that the PPP believes in defending rights of all minorities.
Addressing a memorial held on the 7th death anniversary of former Federal Minister for Interfaith Harmony and PPP leader Shahbaz Bhatti, Bilawal said in his historic speech on August 11, 1947 before the Constituent Assembly, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah laid down the state policy in the following words. "You may belong to any religion or caste or creed that has nothing to do with business of the state.? He said, ?If we want a stable and prosperous Pakistan we must revert to this foundational principle enunciated by the Quaid.?He said a great disservice done by dictatorship is the drift from the path of the Quaid. He said it was a great disservice to privatise Jehad and the project "private jehad" has brought the state and society face to face with existential threat.
