Economic revival tied to political stability: Abbasi

Awaam Pakistan Party (APP) Chairman Shahid Khaqan Abbasi has said that Pakistan cannot move forward unless the ongoing political instability ends, adding that there is a need for genuine political leadership and stronger democratic processes.

Speaking to the media during his visit to Quetta on Thursday, Abbasi voiced serious concerns over the deteriorating law and order situation in Balochistan.

"For the past 10 to 15 years, Balochistan has faced continuous crises. Today, its highways are unsafe, its economy is suffering, and its youth are losing hope," he remarked. "We must reflect on why such conditions persist in Balochistan."

He criticized Islamabad for failing to address the basic grievances of the people of Balochistan and urged the federal government to take effective and revolutionary measures to redress the long-standing concerns of the province's population.

"The issues of the country will not be resolved until political unrest ends and the rule of law is established. We must run the country and divide its resources within the framework of the Constitution," he said.
