BNP hails devotion shown by Baloch people for Mengal
Central Leader of Balochistan National Party and Balochistan Assembly MPA Sanaullah Baloch on Sunday hailed the love and devotion shown by the people of Balochistan towards their deceased leader Sardar Ataullah Mengal.
“It will always be remembered in history as the greatest tribute to him,” he said. “The best way is for the people to keep themselves connected with his thoughts and philosophy.”
Baloch highlighted that Balochistan is going through a very difficult situation at the moment and there are rapid political and geographical changes taking place.
“At the same time, it is necessary to create the spirit of sacrifice, which is the spirit of sacrifice rendered by Baloch Sardar Ataullah Mengal,” he said, adding that all the responsibilities have been transferred to the BNP workers now.
“We will continue to provide guidance, especially to the intellectuals, writers and journalists of Balochistan, political and social activists from all walks of life,” he said. “We all have to sit down and talk about what role we can all play in bringing this nation out of its misery and backwardness.”
Baloch further said Sardar Mengal was not only the head of the BNP but he also rendered many sacrifices to give Balochistan a unique identity. “It was because of him that the voice of the oppressed people of Balochistan reached the world.”
The BNP leader urged people to reject the politics of temporary privileges and interests and use all means of political struggle to bring the struggle for national identity and survival to fruition.
