Balochistan National Party-Mengal (BNP-M) leader in National Assembly Hashim Notezai has said his party’s alliance with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) depends on progress over six-point agenda signed to form government at the Centre.
“Prime Minister Imran Khan tasked an advisory committee to make sure implementation on our demands that held a session. Fortunately we have seen progress over BNP’s prime demand of missing persons and in six months as many as 350 missing Baloch have returned home,” the MNA said while talking to journalists at his residence in Dalbandin the other day.
Notezai also said that the BNP-M has given one year to the PTI for the fulfillment of six-point agenda until then the party cannot part ways with the ruling party.
BNP-M lays province’s claim on its gas
To a query regarding Rekodik project, the BNP-M leader said that despite numerous attempts to get details of the mining project, “the province has been kept blind”. He said that the BNP-M would resist “backdoor deals” over provincial natural resources.
Notezai lamented over the performance of district administration and called the department a “stooge of an elected MPA”.
He said: “We won’t accept flawed practices in Chaghi because the BNP-M has never compromised on public interest”.
Meanwhile, chairing a district-level party meeting, the MNA said that people of Balochistan rendered their trust on the BNP-M in last general elections because of its efforts for provincial autonomy.
“Sardar Akhtar Jan Mengal has been defending Balochistan case on national level because he vowed to address provincial issues,” he added.
