Unity and a New Approach

By Balach Baloch

Specifically, our enemies Pakistan, Iran, China and others that are against our nation and their role against our way to freedom tell us that we Baloch should start a new method against our enemies and get united even though our approach to reach the final goal may be different but we should work together under one system and constitution.

There might be cons and pros in us but without working together it would be hard to get an independent state. We should put egos, selfishness and personal hatred on one side and our thoughts for beautiful Balochistan on the other side, then we should weigh both of them to see which is more valuable. If all forces who are struggling for the freedom of Balochistan don’t come together things can be difficult for the Baloch people and our enemies would take and are taking advantage of our pity difference.

While there might be ongoing efforts for unity but we should not delay as we are already legging behind. We need to be ready and show the world that Baloch people are united for their freedom and we are capable of running our affairs and in a state of mind to get freedom. There should be a system and central leadership or central political command whose orders should be followed by all the freedom-seeking political forces.  They can have their thoughts which can be followed as well but under the system. A constitution should be made for the betterment of the Baloch people and should be followed by everyone and a new form of unity should be formed among us.

Recently we have seen around us nations that have risen against their governments and their unity can be an example for us and we can learn a lot from them. We should also keep in mind that we need unity more than those nations whose only demands were social changes whereas we are fighting for our freedom.

In a reality check if we look at nations like British, European countries and the Middle East how they build up their unity with different thoughts.

After the partition from British and European countries, many countries became independent but they could not maintain their sovereignty and they are now regarded as failed states as they continue to suffer one crisis after another.  A big lesson can be learned from their failure that political freedom, democracy and unity can change things. A state that is controlled by armed forces or relies on charities from other nations/states, its survival and sovereignty will remain at stake.

Our nation has a vast history but unfortunately, the dirty political games have divided us. A nation that had been kept in the dark for 6-8 generations without any proper means of life, there had been abductions, genocides, nuclear tests, drug spread, systematic low literacy rate and lack of basic facilities. If not today then when will we learn? Our current political leadership have to take new radical steps for the protection of our upcoming generations.

Our enemies are using our exploiting Balochistan’s resources and are using it against us we are in a position where we are lost. Pakistan and Iran are using our looting our land, and killing our people under different pretexts including unemployment of Baloch youth, and a crackdown against those who are forced to trade fuel to make ends meet but the Iranian border forces kill them because it affects the illegal drug business of the Iranian military and Pakistani forces.  

 The drug cartels are using routes of Balochistan to take their drugs around the world and they are also given special permits by Pakistani and Iranian military to spread the curse of drug use in Balochistan so that Baloch youth get addicted and destroy themselves and their upcoming generations.

 The education system in Balochistan is deliberately corrupted, cheating is common in schools, colleges and Universities. Education is the only helpful tool that can help Baloch in every way is ignored and weakened so that Baloch remain illiterate and in the dark. In 21 century Balochistan lacks basic health facilities, education institutions, clean drinking water, and electricity and even we are deprived of gas which was first found in Sui Dera Bugti in the 1950s.

 A well-known scholar has said that If you want to destroy a nation, spread drugs and keep them uneducated then see the results. That’s what our enemies are using against us and many other forms which can’t be seen but are destroying us.

Unfortunately, there is also no unity, support and cooperation among Baloch who are well-settled in the Middle East and Europe. On the other hand at the same places you can see other nations like Bengalis, Punjabis, Afghans, Malayalam, and Gujarati who are united and who support each other in every field.
