Why Balochistan?

What about the ongoing struggle between Israeli and Palestinian? Which was began in the early 20^th century. Why the human rights activists does not support voice for those poor Palestinians? What about the Korean Peninsula which was occupied by the Soviet Union in the North and the United States in the South in 1945-1949. Why these issues are put under the rag? Why our sentimental Americans are not concerned about them? If they do not pull the loads of human rights, who will do that? The miserable Kashmiris are looking towards them for their support but our very own Americans keep the Kashmir issue on the back burner and are increasing voice for the right to self-determination for the people of Balochistan. Why the blood of innocent Kashmiris is of no importance? Why only Balochistan appears as the major issue to be solved in the Congress of United States?

Congressman Dana Rohrabacher had last week tabled the resolution which said the people of Balochistan were being subjected to violence and extra-judicial killings and they had the “right to self-determination and to their own independent country; and they should be afforded the opportunity to choose their own status”. Who has given the Americans the rights to interfere in our internal matters? Why they love to hamper in our country’s affairs?

Today I really thankful to Allah that Pakistan and its political parties continued to show its rage on the tabling of a resolution on Balochistan in the House of Representative. As usually the Interior Minister Rehman Malik has once again blamed foreign elements for provoking violence in Balochistan and trying to separate it from Pakistan. To some extend today. I agree with his statement.


Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan condemned the resolution on Balochistan presented in the House of Representatives in the United States and called it as a breach on Pakistan’s sovereignty. The senior leader of PTI Mukhdoom Javed Hashmi said that human rights were being violated in Balochistan and that the mandatory government should take stern notice of the issue. But Javed Hashmi and Mukhdoom Shah Mehmood Qureshi have also expressed concern over the resolution by the US Congress on Balochistan and termed it involvement in the country’s affairs.

This is all my personal perception that not because of human rights and geopolitics, but for the “the tremendous deposits of oil, gas, and minerals. Balochistan has become the major reason why it has appeared on the international radar.”
