ZHOB Nov 9 (PPI): Pashtoons were passing through most crucial situation of history. Those doing politic sin the name of Pashtoons and religion were silent for personal. Pashtoons are being harassed every where. Economic Corridor in fact is Punjab China Corridor.
These views were expressed by President Awami National Party Balochistan Asghar Achakzai, MPA Engineer Zamrak Achakzai, Haji Nizamuddin Kakar and others while addressing a llic meeting here Wednesday.
Meeting was organized against ignoring Western Route under CPEC.
Speakers said they were not opposed to CPEC but no one would be allowed to usurp our rights. They were of the view that economic corridor is infact Punjab China Economic Corridor. Prime Minister told lie in Zhob in the name of western route. He said corridor was being built in Punjab but people were being killed in Balochistan. Those raising voice against terrorism should know CPEC caravan was passing peacefully from Balochistan. Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Abdul Ghafoor Hydri and Balochistan Governor were satisfied over CPEC Western route because corridor was being constructed on thousands acres of land of Maulana.
They said for raising voice for rights we are being termed as traitor. If this is crime we would continue to commit this. Thousands of workers including ANP leaders were martyred. Those sought votes in the name of nation and religion and doing politics did not move any resolution for the nation but were playing role of silent spectators after securing personal interest and ministries. They asked why they are silent in the assemblies.
Speakers said National identity cards and census is the major problems of Pashtoons. Balochistan Chief Minister opposes census at the meetings chaired by Prime Minister but those sought votes from Pashtoons remain silent.
They said at the civil hospital and Police Training College incidents provinces suffered colossal losses but Balochistan government was filing appeals against Judicial Commission constituted about civil hospital tragedy so that facts remain hidden. It is extremely regrettable that Pashtoons killers are given respect by bringing them at home. Nawaz Sharif had opposed Pashtoonkhwa Province but those doing politics in the name of Pashtoons were Nawaz Sharif’s allies supporting him.
Provincial government in Balochistan is confined to distribution of funds only. Provincial government has no right to remain in power for not providing security to the people in the province.
They regretted that there is no standard educational institution or hospital in Pashtoon area. Pashtoons are deprived of national identity cards even today. Pashtoons were being teased at nakas of security here and there justifiably.
ANP they added has spoken of people in every era. Meeting also adopted several resolutions.
