Quetta:
Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti has called on the human rights organizations to build an independent and fact -based tale of Balochistan’s history, current realities and the overall situation.
In a meeting with a delegation from the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) at the Chief Minister’s Secretariat in Quetta, Balochistan CM said that the ongoing narrative at national and international level regarding Balochistan is incompatible with facts, and it needs revision to reflect a balanced and accurate perspective.
The meeting included in -depth discussions of law and order, human rights conditions and the provincial social development initiatives.
The story of the story, Bugti emphasized that the accession of the Kalat state to Pakistan was based on mutual agreement rather than coercion and added certain groups deliberately distorted historical facts to mislead those who do not know the true history of the region.
With reference to the recent terrorist incidents, he condemned the targeted killing of innocent citizens based on their identity and called it part of a wider agenda of hostile foreign powers, especially India.
“These acts of terror have nothing to do with a struggle for rights, but are part of an organized attempt to destabilize and divide Pakistan,” said Balochistan CM, adding the supporters of these groups have openly expressed their intentions on different national and international platforms.
Questioning the legitimacy of such violent acts asked Bugti: “What kind of rights movement involves killing people based on their ethnic identity?”
Balochistan cm Mir Sarfraz Bugti pointed out that these elements rejected dialogue and openly talked about sharing Pakistan, a mindset that was unacceptable in any civilized state or community.
