|
[GEOTV] In response to a series of horrific attacks in Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
that resulted in over 50 deaths, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif visited the bucolic provincial capital on Thursday and vowed to completely eradicate terrorism from the province at all costs, saying the "blood of deaders will not go in vain".
The premier made these remarks while chairing a high-level meeting of the National Action Plan's provincial apex committee.
Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir, Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, Balochistan Governor Sheikh Jaffar Khan Mandokhail, Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti, security czar Mohsin Naqvi, federal ministers Ahsan Iqbal, Attaullah Tarar, Jam Kamal, corps commander, and other armed and civilian officials were in attendance.
The prime minister's visit to Quetta comes against the backdrop of recent bloodshed in the country's largest province by land wherein over 50 people, including 14 security personnel, were martyred in different terrorist attacks in Balochistan.
In one of the deadliest attacks on Monday, at least 23 passengers were killed after being offloaded from passenger buses and trucks in the Rarasham area of Balochistan's Musakhel.
Separately, at least 10 people, including police and Balochistan Levies personnel, were martyred in a gun attack in Kalat.
Furthermore, at least 14 brave sons of soil, including 10 security forces soldiers and four personnel of law enforcement agencies (LEAs), were martyred in clearance operations, wherein at least 21 forces of Evil were neutralised.
The recent bloodshed has resulted in a strong reaction from both the federal and provincial governments with PM Shehbaz ruling out dialogue and a "soft approach" in dealing with the enemy.
Terming the incidents ''tragic and barbaric'' today, the prime minister said all terrorist organizations, the "Khawarij" and controllers hatched the terror plot which resulted in martyrdom of innocent civilians and security personnel.
