QUETTA: Chairperson Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has Said that the incumbent government is trying to turn CPEC into a failed project, adding that the incumbent premier had "not given anything to Balochistan, but instead was trying to snatch from the province".

PPP Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, who is in Gilgit-Baltistan for the upcoming elections in the region, addressed the participants of PDM's jalsa via video link.

The PPP chief said that the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was the result of a four-year struggle by Zardari and added that the project was meant for the benefit of deprived regions including Gilgit Baltistan, erstwhile Fata and Balochistan province.

"Today, those who term CPEC as a gamechanger should think that without Balochistan and its Gwadar, without GB and its borders, there is no CPEC," he declared and asked why CPEC had still not benefitted the people of Balochistan and GB.
