Use of Sui gas
IT is very annoying to note that Balochistan, the major producer of gas in the country, is deprived of gas.Gas was first discovered in Sui (the subdistrict of Dera Bugti) in 1953 and it was initially supplied to Punjab in 1962, but surprisingly Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, received Sui gas in 1986 and Dera Bugti in the 1990s.Although Sui accounts for 40 per cent of Pakistan’s gas production, Balochistan receives only two per cent of it and the remaining 38 per cent goes to Punjab.According to an estimate, every year the federal government earns Rs90 billion from Sui gas, out of which Balochistan receives Rs4 billion as royalty.Moreover, out of 28 districts in the province, onl... details >>

Baloch grievances
APROOS of Shehar Bano Khan’s article, ‘The displaced Baloch’ (April 6), regarding the atrocities committed in Balochistan, I agree with the writer that Balochistan has remained a victimised province.If one takes a glance at the 60-year history of Pakistan, one comes to know that the Baloch have not been allowed by the establishment to use their own resources.Since the inception of Pakistan, they have been enduring atrocities at the hands of the establishment, sometimes in the form of operations launched in 1948, 1958, 1963, 1973, 2005 and the one still going on in the area of Dera Bugti and Kohlu which already have done considerable damage.According to an estimate, 20,000 Baloch have been di... details >>

Justice denied to the Baloch
IT is very sad to see the former chief minister of Balochistan, Sardar Akhtar Mengal, being treated in a draconian manner. It has almost been two years since he was arrested on a charge of detaining two personnel of the Military Intelligence who were harassing his children on their way to school.Akhtar Mengal did what probably any father would do to protect his children and had held the men to inquire as to why they were following his children. This act was seen as something so terrible that the ATC awarded 45 years’ imprisonment to the two bodyguards of Akhtar Mengal.His trial has not even begun despite being in jail for almost two years although, according to my knowledge, cases in... details >>

Nawab Sahib was a national leader
Dear friends,
August 27, 2006
I start my mail with bitter sadness and our helplessness to see our greatest of all Baloch leader statesmen, father of all Baloch freedom fighters, The Great Nawab Mohammed Akbar Khan has embraced Shadeth who as promised when he left his home said I prefer death while defending Baloch rights in battle field then to lay dying in bed.
We Baloch swear by the name of almighty Allah that Baloch struggles lights lit by Nawab will continue and its flames will burn down all the chains of slavery in Balochistan I regret that I was not there when the enemy attacked and killed him even though we decided that we shall meet some where soon in Balochistan.

The Dream Of Shaheed Nawab Akbar Bugti Lives On
By Juma Baloch
26th August 2006 was a day of big loss for the Baloch nation. We lost the father figure of our nation Shaheed-e-Wattan Nawab Akbar Bugti. With every tragedy that falls on a nation, it either brings it together or shatters it apart. The shahadat of Nawab Akbar Bugti brought the Baloch nation together. The fury of the Baloch nation could be seen in the streets from Karachi to Quetta. This is what living nations are made of.
On the murder of Shaheed Akbar Bugti, the occupying Pakistani forces and their puppet government in Balochistan with all their propagating machinery declared the end off insurgency of the Baloch nation. One year have passed since the shahad... details >>

SOS - Appeal to "Baloch Women Panel" to break their hunger-strike!!!
My heart cries, when I see my Bloch brothers, sisters and children go on hunger strike for justice and in search of their loved ones, unjustly captives of Pakistani authorities. I wish there was another way to seek justice for suffering Baloch and Sindhi citizens. In my humble opinion, hunger strike of concerned Baloch sisters is a futile effort to draw attention of cruel Pakistani military dictators, who do not have conscious and human heart, to realize the sufferings of Sindhis and Bloch people.I think, the efforts of our Baloch sisters, on hunger strike, will be much more fruitful and worthwhile, if they are healthy and channelize their efforts with sound healthy mind, to seek some othe... details >>
