QUETTA: Balochistan Chief Minister Dr Abdul Malik Baloch on Monday said that every inch of Balochistan would be defended and protected. “No compromise would be made on Reko Diq copper and gold project because it is the future of Balochistan and it will be utilised for the interests of the masses,” he added. He was addressing a public gathering in the Kadkocha area of Mastung District.
The CM said that the National Party (NP) was the chain of National Party Kalat State and National Awami Party.
“Mastung’s land is very fertile regarding Baloch national struggle. Our ancestors in Kalat State were baton -charged for the sake of national struggle and were even deported from Kalat,” he added.
Stressing upon further organising and consolidating the NP, he said, “We need to expedite our struggle because some frustrated elements were not digesting the better performance of NP. Anti-social elements are once again grouping against NP because they are restless and worried after power was taken from them with the power of masses that has harmed their personal interests.” Baloch said, “Gwadar District was allotted to land mafia by the corrupt representatives in the past but we have vowed that we would protect our coast and land, therefore illegal allotments made over thousands of acres in Pasni have been cancelled. The people of Pasni will soon be given land rights in Pasni.”
He said that defending Baloch resources and land was the key agenda of his party and no compromise would be made in this connection. The situation in the province has improved manifold during the last 18 months and the no one could raise a finger on NP representatives about their involvement in protecting criminals.
Referring to Baloch missing persons, he said the government was striving hard to trace out them. He said that after completion of Dadu-Khuzdar and DG Khan-Loralai transmission lines Rs 8 billion have been set aside for improvement of transmission line in interior Balochistan. The CM announced Rs 20 million for the provision of electricity in Kadkocha.
