balochistan should be liberated and should be made an independent country.
BLF, its comrades and alike can't possibly do more harm to innocent Baluchess with such inhumanly acts. They have forced health service providers and educationists to escape from Baluchistan fearing loss of their own and loved ones lives. LRBT was forced to scale down its free eye care hospital after the abduction of one of its Doctors. Why make ordinary folks pay for political disagreements?
