[DAWN] Senior Minister and 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... PML-N chief Sardar Sanaullah Khan Zehri has alleged that India has been financing a separatist movement in the province and expressed fear that a 'superpower' and some other neighbouring countries may also extend financial support to it if the Gwadar port is made operational. Talking to news hounds at his official residence here, he said the Gwadar port had great geo-political importance and making it operational might affect the business of some other ports in the region. "India is involved in financing separatists' movement in Balochistan and a superpower and some neighbouring countries may contribute in efforts to destabilise Pakistain by creating more unrest in the province if the deep-sea port of Gwadar is made operational," he said. However, you can observe a lot just by watching... the new port would greatly boost the economy of the region by increasing trade activities through an economic corridor for China, Central Asian states, Afghanistan and Pakistain, he said. "Gwadar port will boost our national economy and create job opportunities for thousands of youths in Balochistan." |
