The recent segment of the awareness campaign launched by the Baloch National Movement (BNM) on the atrocities faced by the Baloch community by the Pak Army in London, has been concluded. During the phase of this campaign, the BNM activists distributed pamphlets in London.
In their social media post, BNM UK stated that the awareness program named “Unveiling The Baloch Struggle” will be organised in various locations in the UK. The UK cell of the Baloch National Movement commenced the campaign on February 17 this year. During the phase of this campaign, the BNM activists distributed pamphlets and raised awareness for the Baloch community in London.
Balochistan is a land of rich history, diverse cultures, and immense natural resources. However, since the occupation of Balochistan by Pakistan in 1948, the Balochis have faced systematic discrimination and exploitation. The Pak establishment has denied the Baloch their right to self-determination, suppressing their political aspirations and exploiting their natural resources for its benefit. This exploitation has led to widespread poverty, environmental degradation, and the displacement of Baloch communities.
The people of Balochistan under the control of the Pak Army have endured a persistent struggle against the atrocities and genocide perpetrated by the Pak Army. These egregious acts include frequent home invasions, disappearances, staged encounters, target killings, torture, embarrassment at checkpoints, and kidnappings for ransom.
The international community should recognize the Baloch people’s basic fundamental right to life and should conduct independent investigations into human rights violations in Balochistan and hold the Pak establishment accountable for its actions.
