Pakistan wants to build CPEC on dead bodies of Baloch people, BRP
The activists held a seminar in Paroon
area of Panjgur district throwing light on the atrocities on the people of
Balochistan and urged the Indian media to highlight the issue.
Rejecting
China’s interference in Balochistan over the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor
(CPEC), the Balochistan Republican Party (BRP) activists have said Islamabad
wants to build the same in the region on the dead bodies of Baloch people with
Beijing’s help.
The
activists held a seminar in Paroon area of Panjgur district throwing light on
the atrocities on the people of Balochistan and urged the Indian media to
highlight the issue.
“We
have seen that Pakistani media greatly aired news about the death of Burhan
Wani (Hizbul Mujahideen militant). Similarly, we want the Indian media to take
Balochistan issue and expose the atrocities done by the Pakistan Army on the
people of Balochistan before the world,” said an activist at the seminar.
He
urged the international community and right groups across the globe to raise
the voice of oppressed Baloch people on an international forum.
The
BRP activist said Pakistan is committing genocide and deterring the peaceful
struggle of Baloch nationals through different extremist groups like Hafiz
Saeed’s Lashkar-e-Taiba. He also condemned Balochistan Chief
Minister Nawab Sanaullah Zehri’s statement on Baloch separatist leader
Brahamdagh Bugti.
The
activist highlighted that those who have raised their voice on the Balochistan
issue were crushed by the army. So far, thousands of party activists have been
killed by the Pakistani intelligence agencies, he said.
“Families
wait for justice throughout life, so we hope every country supports our cause
just like India that took up the Baloch issue and highlighted them on the
international level,” he added.
The
activists say that CPEC was causing damage to the environment and would not
benefit the people of the region instead they alleged Balochistan’s abundant
resources were being diverted for the benefit of Pakistan’s most populous
province Punjab. Considered as a part of China’s One Belt, One Road initiative,
the CPEC covers Balochistan and Sindh provinces and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
