Ethnic cleansing means to murder all inhabitants. There is no such plan in fact Balochs have expanded into Sindh and Southern Punjab themselves.
Besides they don't want your trust or anything from you, they want a separate ethnic state. They blow up your investments and kill your teachers that you send.
You have two options if you are a serious country, demographic engineering (which is what Turkey & Iran are doing), or just surrender. Being indecisive and running with your tail tucked in is pointless stalemate. You are wasting soldier lives for nothing.
Have you ever spoken to pro-BLA baloch? They don't want your development or trust, it's about an independent ethnic homeland. Similar to Kashmir.
whos "they" lol.
Fringe elements in larger groups? The vocal minority? This same rhetoric is going to turn Pakistan into 5 different states. You have 3/5 territories with legitimate concerns, where people are treated like second class citizens.
Remember Nawaz referring to Pakhtuns as idiots, or in more recent times, Maryam suggesting checkpoints on roads from KPK to counter insurgency...
This rhetoric of collective punishment/blame is what is going to end up causing Pakistan to divide.
Blaming entire ethnic groups for policy failure at the hands of the government has stirred up animosity, then quelling that animosity via force instead of actually listening to their concerns created the separatism. Had the government not deprived the Balochis of development and investment, im sure none of this would be news. Instead, there is lack of opportunity, lack of outlook, lack of trust, leading men to join groups to earn for their family and become indoctrinated, creating violence. We will see the same in KP too soon enough, sindh too etc.
Balochistan is rich in minerals, the government has ample opportunity to provide work and reap rewards from their investments into the province. Instead, the corrupt dealings with the Chinese and other outsiders has lead to Baluchis being replaced by outsiders. The GAME CHANGER CPEC involved the Chinese shipping out labour from China instead of hiring local workers, with the large majority, being flown in, on inflated salaries from China, paid for by Chinese loans to Pakistan lol. In whos mind was this a good idea??? Chinese fishing boats literally illegally fish within gwadar depriving local fishermen of their sole source of income.
By Allah if i was a baluchi or a pakhtun and i was seeing stuff like this in front of my eyes, id have picked up arms too. Why on earth be loyal to a state who could not give a damn about me or my people, a state who is only interested in exploiting my land.
Instead of demographic engineering or giving up, there is a third option, a proper option, the right option:
Listen to the concerns had grievances of these people, work with them in a conclusive manner to solve them. Create a future, an outlook for these people, winning the hearts and minds. Like India is doing in Kashmir lol, IOK is developing at a rapid pace, you think theyre going to ever look towards a state like Pakistan and say yes, we want to leave India and join Pakistan, no, never. Fringe elements will always exist, however, a happy, thriving majority will always quash those minorities.
and what will be the gdp of pak in 1980 if debt was low so was the gdp in 1980s
