PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto has called out the judiciary for its 'double standards' in providing justice to different political parties.
According to the Bhutto family scion, the judges, who collude with every dictator, have not yet delivered justice to Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto or Benazir Bhutto.
Commenting on the recent scenario, he said, "There are some in the institutions who want to play politics. If that is what they want, then be prepared to be responded to politically."
The PPP chairman further said that the powerful lot of the society doesn't care about the interests of the people.
He questioned as to where were the judges and their suo motu powers were when an incapable prime minster was imposed on the people. "The economic downturn that we are experiencing today is because of him."
The government coalition has refused the top court's decision to annul ECP decision of postponing the Punjab elections to October 8. It rejected the verdict, terming it a 'minority verdict' imposed on a 'majority decision'.

Moreover, PML-N supremo called the justice a one-man show, and urged people to rise against it.
A day earlier, the Supreme Court declared the electoral authority's decision as null and void. The three-member bench, led by Chief Justice of Pakistan Umar Ata Bandial and including Justices Ijaz Ul Ahsan and Munib Akhtar, announced the decision.
In its ruling, the apex court deemed the decision to hold elections on October 8 “unconstitutional” and mandated that they take place on May 14 in Punjab.
Late last month, a three-member bench of the Supreme Court led by Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial turned down AGP Mansoor Awan’s request to form a full court to hear PTI’s plea against the elections delay.
According to the court, the law or the rules don’t support the composition of a full court and doing so would take the matter back to its start.
