Won’t spare those who aim to weaken Balochistan: Bugti

Balochistan's Chief Minister, Sarfraz Bugti, has made a firm commitment to counter any attempts to destabilize the province, emphasizing the government's zero-tolerance policy against terrorism and extremism.

Speaking at the Martyrs' Day ceremony, Bugti declared, "We won’t spare those who aim to weaken Balochistan," asserting that the true honour lies with the families of the martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the nation.

"The martyrs are remembered every day of the year," he said, highlighting their enduring significance.

In his address, the CM discussed the challenges that Balochistan has faced, stating, "Numerous conspiracies have been attempted in our country, but the nation has robustly defended against the fault lines of terrorism."

He recalled the turbulent past when Balochistan was plagued by terrorism, adding, "We have avenged the blood of our martyrs."

Bugti stressed that terrorism in Balochistan has been propagated through religious and nationalist means. However, he assured that the provincial police and Levies are well-equipped to counter these threats, stating, "Those who take up arms will be confronted directly."

He also condemned the tactics used under the guise of peaceful protests, where ordinary citizens were reportedly abducted and women used as shields, violating local traditions.

"This fight is not just for the police but for all of us," Bugti stated, calling for a collective effort to combat the forces of division.

"Our martyrs are fortunate to have sacrificed their blood for this country," Bugti affirmed, promising that the government would take every measure to support the families of those who have fallen. He pledged to eradicate terrorism from Pakistan, asserting confidently that "Pakistan will always endure."
