She explained that the people’s right to vote and participate in the development was always paramount to the PPP/C.
She spoke about the debts inherited when the PPP/C Government took office in1992, and because of strategic planning and execution of those plans, “we came out of the debt.”

“Judge us by what we have done; we are not coming to you with empty rhetoric. This is why, come May 11, I urge you to vote PPP/C,” Chanderpal stressed.
