Sorry state of Balochistan

Letter May 24, 2011
Despite supplying its natural gas for the homes and factories — Balochistan remains the least developed.

RESTON, VA, US: This is with reference to Nosheen Ali’s article of May 24 titled “The terribly sad state of Balochistan”. The true aspirations of the people of Balochistan can never be suppressed. This has been tried unsuccessfully by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Ziaul Haq and Pervez Musharraf. The largest province of the federation — despite supplying its natural gas for the homes and factories of the country — remains the least developed. Why? Has the establishment not learnt a lesson from 1971?
