Heightened Tension Grips Kharan Ahead of Elections

Kharan finds itself gripped in a state of heightened tension as reports emerge of explosive devices discovered at four separate polling stations within the city. Each bomb, weighing 5 kg, represents a significant threat should they be detonated.

According to sources, Pakistani security forces are trying to suppress information regarding these incidents. The intent appears to be to ensure public attendance at polling stations, reassuring voters with an illusory sense of safety amidst faltering state security.

The populace of Kharan must be vigilant in light of these developments as the extent and potential locations of further explosive devices remain uncertain, compounding the need for caution. The Baloch public must be wary of unwittingly imperiling themselves and their loved ones by lending support to dishonest and corrupt candidates, whose ascendancy often results in the misconduct of public funds and job opportunities.

The act of sending one’s kin into harm’s way by dispatching them to polling stations is decried as an egregious folly, betraying the sacrifices of countless martyrs who laid down their lives in pursuit of future generations’ freedom.

It is the responsibility of the voters to understand that support for power-hungry candidates carries grave consequences, endangering the lives of thousands of youth who are currently suffering excruciating torture at the hands of Pakistani forces.  It would be tantamount to rubbing salts on the wounds of Baloch mothers who have suffered immeasurable loss and betraying the cause of those who willingly sacrificed their lives for your prosperous future.

In the wake of recent attacks, various Baloch pro-freedom organisations, including the BLA, have taken responsibility and issued a clear directive to the public, “stay away from all polling stations and people who choose to ignore these warnings, and take part in Pakistan’s election do so at their own risk.”
