The Bhutto family on Saturday quashed rumors of a supposed rift between PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari and his son, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari.
The speculation gained traction after Zardari labeled his son as an "inexperienced" politician during a recent interview, and further escalated when Bilawal departed for Dubai.
Amidst growing speculation, Bakhtawar Bhutto-Zardari, daughter of Asif Ali Zardari, took to social media to reassure the public that the family remains united.

In a post featuring a joyful family photo, Bakhtawar urged people not to be swayed by headlines and emphasized the family's commitment to unity.
A similar image was shared by Bilawal on his Instagram handle, portraying a harmonious atmosphere within the Bhutto clan.
In the aftermath of Zardari's interview, PPP leaders took to various media platforms to denounce reports of internal strife within the party.
PPP Central Secretary Information Faisal Karim Kundi clarified that Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari remains the party's candidate for the prime ministership, despite the candid comments made by his father.
"Reports of a rift within the PPP's top leadership are baseless. While differences may exist on certain issues, the core strength of the party lies in its unity," said Kundi in a press statement.
