There was a time when Balochistan stood paralyzed by fear, so unstable and insecure that even hope seemed afraid to pass through. But those dark days are behind us. The region is undergoing a remarkable transformation, and with continued resolve, its future looks brighter than ever.
Groups like the so-called “Baloch Yateem (Yakjehti) Committee” (BYC) are not political organizations, but rather extensions of hostile foreign agendas, most notably the “Fitna-al-Hindustan” project. These groups exploit public sentiment, particularly that of the youth, through emotional slogans and false promises that have no grounding in reality. In truth, the BYC is nothing more than a terrorist outfit, not a legitimate representative body.
Every time a “missing person” is killed in an encounter with security forces, the BYC takes to the streets—blocking roads, disrupting public life, and hijacking the narrative. Their protests are not acts of civil resistance but deliberate efforts, funded by India, to sow chaos and instability in Balochistan. They shamelessly use children in their demonstrations, indoctrinating them with anti-state slogans aimed at poisoning the minds of the next generation.
Consider the recent case involving two Indian RAW agents killed in an encounter operation after the Jaffar Express attack. Their bodies were retrieved from Quetta’s Civil Hospital by members of this group and have mysteriously disappeared ever since. When security forces questioned this, the group retaliated by staging violent protests and using the same children as shields. In a tragic twist of events, they killed their children inside the protest to great chaos. It is imperative for parents to remain vigilant; these groups do not fight for rights—they exploit innocence for funding and propaganda.
The BYC is not registered with the Election Commission; it has no political status or legitimacy. It is merely a fringe group of opportunists. Ever since its leadership was arrested, not a single public protest has been seen in their support. Before their fall, national highways across Balochistan were frequently blocked, paralyzing trade and daily life. Today, for the past several months, peace has largely returned—roads remain open, businesses are recovering, and law and order is being restored.
This group hides behind women and children because it lacks the courage to confront openly. But let’s be clear: not all Baloch are terrorists. The Baloch people are simple, peaceful, and patriotic. Only a handful of elements—funded by RAW, Mossad, and other hostile agencies—have taken up arms to destabilize our homeland. These individuals misguide youth, lure them to the mountains, and use them to record hate-filled propaganda for social media.
This is no longer a war of weapons, but a war of narratives. The side that controls the narrative will emerge victorious. We are committed to exposing their lies and countering their propaganda with truth, unity, and progress.
While they peddle destruction, we speak of development, education, and opportunity. Where they push youth toward terrorism, we envision future CSS officers, doctors, engineers, and scientists. Those who vanish into the hills chasing fake ideologies lose not only their future but also their very identity.
These terrorists document their attacks with cinematic precision—multi-angle videos shot with high-definition cameras—not for awareness, but as evidence to secure funding from their foreign masters. This technological support, too, is provided by enemies of Pakistan like Israel and India. Their goal is to spread fear; ours is to inspire hope.
Recently, the United Nations formally designated the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) as a terrorist organisation. Pakistan’s security forces are actively dismantling these networks, and it is only a matter of time before these agents of chaos face justice—justice that will serve as a lasting lesson.
It must be understood: these individuals must regularly deliver “proof” to their funders, whether it’s Narendra Modi or Ajit Doval. Each attack, each video, each protest serves one purpose—to receive more money. Yet, their influence is rapidly dwindling. With God’s grace, this mischief will be eradicated entirely in the coming months. Pakistan, after all, means “Land of the Pure”—and no impure intentions will be allowed to take root on this sacred soil.
Even their foreign handlers have begun to feel the heat. Funding supply is being cut. The recent tensions between Iran and Israel revealed chilling truths. Iranian authorities uncovered a disturbing link: BLA and BLF operatives residing in Iran were spying for Mossad, sharing classified intelligence, and planning attacks within both Pakistan and Iran.
In response, Iran launched a crackdown, arresting and executing several members of these outfits. Investigations confirmed that these terrorists were receiving backing from Israel while also working to destabilize the region. The entire chain—BLA, BLF, Mossad, and RAW—has now been exposed. More revelations are expected in the coming days, and Iran is continuing its operations.
Let’s be clear: these militants are neither Baloch nor Muslims. They have no connection to Baloch culture, to religion, or to any legitimate struggle for rights. They are tools of foreign agendas. We, the sons of Balochistan, take pride in our Pakistani identity. Facilities in education, healthcare, and development are available, and if any district lacks progress, the blame lies not with the state but with local representatives.
For over seventy years, Balochistan has been governed by Baloch leadership. Never has a Punjabi, Sindhi, Pashtun, or Kashmiri held the office of Chief Minister. If some areas are still underdeveloped today, it is due to the failure of local leadership, not the Pakistan Army.
The Army has always stood shoulder to shoulder with the people during floods, earthquakes, and all national emergencies. Infrastructure, education, and public services fall under the domain of civilian leadership, not the military.
There is no rebellion in Balochistan. The false image of an uprising is deliberately fabricated by these anti-state elements to attract foreign NGOs and media attention. Their only objective is to invite international interference in Pakistan’s internal matters. But their narrative has failed—and failed miserably.
Pakistan is also achieving remarkable diplomatic success. Afghanistan has assured that its soil will not be used against us. Iran’s recent actions validate our long-standing concerns. And Field Marshal Asim Munir’s recent visit to the United States has further elevated Pakistan’s global standing. The dignity and respect with which he was received reflect Pakistan’s growing importance in regional stability. Field Marshal Asim Munir powerfully presented Pakistan’s case to the world, establishing that no regional strategy can succeed without Pakistan’s inclusion.
Pakistan has paid a heavy price in blood in its fight against terrorism. Today, the world is beginning to understand our reality. China’s unwavering support, Iran’s cooperation, and Afghanistan’s reassurances all signal a turning tide.
As for the recent propaganda campaigns on social media—where the sanctity of our women is being attacked and manipulated—the culprits are once again the same. Agents of Hindutva like Arjun Shukla and Deepak Nagi, who don’t respect women in their own land, are using our women as pawns in their psychological warfare.
We know how to defend the honor of our mothers, sisters, and daughters. Islam teaches us to respect women, and our traditions reinforce that. These enemies seek to confuse and corrupt our values, but we will counter them on every front: diplomatic, intellectual, and strategic.
