QUETTA:

Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Abdul Quddus Bizenjo said that the financial problems of the province would be discussed with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on his visit to Quetta.

He expressed these views while chairing a cabinet meeting here the other day.

The cabinet meeting, in which 65 agenda points related to provincial affairs were considered, decided that no one would be allowed to disturb the law and order situation in the province.

Prayers were also offered in the meeting for the martyred policeman in the firing of the angry mob in Gwadar.

The cabinet condemned the rioting of the Haq-Do Tehreek (HDT) in Gwadar and the attacks on the police, saying that there would be no compromise on law and order.

Home Minister Mir Ziaullah Langu informed the participants of the meeting that the government believed in negotiations but no pressure was acceptable, saying the closed roads had been opened after controlling the situation in Gwadar.

The provincial cabinet also reviewed the issue of acquisition of share under NFC award from the federation, hoping that the federal government would play its role in solving the financial problems of the province.

Balochistan's cabinet approved the establishment of two new tehsils and a sub-tehsil in Nushki district and compensation for the losses of the traders affected by Ziarat. The cabinet also approved the Balochistan Public Private Partnership Rules 2022 and additional grant-in-aid for the provincial Judicial Academy.
