Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti has said that those challenging the writ of the state will be dealt with an iron hand.
Addressing a press conference along with leaders of allied political parties in Islamabad on Friday, he said that the government wants to resolve the problems through the dialogues. “It is our foremost duty to protect the life and property off the people of Balochistan,” he declared.
Sarfraz Bugti said that both the federal and Balochistan provincial governments are on the same page to address issues of the province.
He said that the state is using the relevant tools to prevent threats and causes of insurgency in Balochistan.
He said that the leadership of Balochistan was united for resolving the issues of province. He said the Balochistan government was making efforts to promote the good governance as the beneficiary of such governance was common people of the province, who is main victim of bad governance.
He mentioned that all parties were actively involved in providing relief to the common men of the province. He said that for the first time in history, Senators have been elected from the province unopposed.
In response to a question, he stated that violence cannot guarantee the provision of rights to Balochistan as all the rights granted to Balochistan to date have been conferred by the country’s parliament.
He expressed gratitude to the Pakistan People’s Party, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, Awami National Party, and Pakistan Muslim League-N for giving him the opportunity to serve the people of Balochistan as Chief Minister.
Paying tribute to the security forces for foiling terrorist attacks in Gwadar and Turbat, the Chief Minister said the vigilant jawans thwarted the terrorist attack in Gwadar by killing the suicide bombers within a period of only twenty minutes.
