Baloch Card is getting Tough in either side of the LOC as Pakistan has taken legal action against three top Baloch leaders who had allegedly backed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s supportive words on Balochistan in his Independence Day speech.
Five cases of punitive actions has been registered, including that of sedition against Brahamdagh Bugti, Harbiyar Marri and Banuk Karima, a senior police officer said.
On the other hand in Paris,France, exiled Baloch leader Munir Mengal said,
“Baloch has been seeing this side of Pakistan for 70 years. Pakistan has sometimes tried to lure us by promising rewards and sometimes assaulted us”.
PM Modi, he said, had made the remarks on humanitarian grounds.
The Pakistan authority crackdowned on Balochistan Chief Minister Sanaullah Zehri after he in a speech last week admitted that the Indian government “fully supports the ongoing insurgency in Balochistan”. A Modi speach made all the difference.
His speech came days after exiled Baloch leader Brahamdagh Bugti showed appreciation for PM Modi’s words. A video of Bugti’s statements is still being circulated on social media in Pakistan.
Now Pakistan is also facing the heat on the issues as reciprocation of the seeds they had planted in J&K in India. On all context Terror acts are not at all accepted for any reason what so ever from any side.
