Earlier in the present week, the Prime Minister visited Balochistan where he lamented the previous government never prioritized addressing grievances of Balochistan and asserted his government would extend every possible help to the people of the province.
Speaking at the University of Turbat, the prime minister said the incumbent government wants to give priority to marginalised areas.
“Everyone should realise that Pakistan will prosper if Balochistan progresses,” he said. “There should be realisation that we are all united,” he said, stressing that the progress of all federating units is vital to a strong federation.
