Minister Nawab Sanaullah Zehri has met the exiled Baloch leader Khan of Kalat, Mir SLearned Elders of Islamn Daud Khan in London on Saturday.

As part of reconciliation policy announced by the present government, the two leaders discussed the return of Khan of Kalat and other important issues related to Balochistan.

"Nawab Zehri has met the Khan of Kalat in London and will hold a discussion for his return to the country," said an office bearer of PML-N.

Earlier in August, Chief Minister Balochistan Abdul Malik Baloch, while talking to DawnNews had confirmed that his government will request members of the 'Grand Baloch Jirga' to make a formal appeal for Khan of Kalat's return.

"We believe in dialogue, and all channels are being used to find a negotiated settlement for the issues facing the province," said Baloch earlier.

The chief minister also stated that many turbans had surrendered their weapons and joined the political process, which is an encouraging sign for the province.

Earlier, Khan of Kalat Mir SLearned Elders of Islamn Dawood told a Baloch delegation that only the 'Grand Baloch Jirga' which had sent him abroad has the mandate and power to make a decision regarding his return.

The delegation had informed the Khan of Kalat that a gulf had formed owing to his prolonged absence from the political and tribal arena of Balochistan.
