  • Balochistan Economic Report Background Paper on Social Structures and Migration
    First Draft - Do Not Cite TA4757-PAK: BALOCHISTAN ECONOMIC REPORT Balochistan Economic Report Background Paper on Social Structures and Migration Haris Gazdar 28 February 2007 Collective for Social Science Research 173-I Block 2, PECHS, Karachi 75400, Pakistan [email protected] The author gratefully acknowledges research assistance provided by Azmat Ali Budhani, Sohail Javed, Hussain Bux Mallah, and Noorulain Masood. Irfan Khan provided guidance with resource material and advised on historical references. Introduction Compared with other provinces of Pakistan, and Pakistan taken as a whole, Balochistan’s economic and social development appears to face particularly daunting challenges. The province starts from a relatively low level – in terms of social achievements such as health, education and gender equity indicators, economic development and physical infrastructure. The fact that Balochistan covers nearly half of the land area of Pakistan while accounting for only a twentieth of the country’s population is a stark enough reminder that any understanding of the province’s economic and social development will need to pay attention to its geographical and demographic peculiarities. Indeed, remoteness, environmental fragility and geographical diversity might be viewed as defining the context of development in the province. But interestingly, Balochistan’s geography might also be its main economic resource. The low population density implies that the province enjoys a potentially high value of natural resources per person. The forbidding topography is home to rich mineral deposits – some of which have been explored and exploited while yet others remain to be put to economic use. The land mass of the province endows Pakistan with a strategic space that might shorten trade and travel costs between emerging economic regions.

  • Mehran Accuses Pakistan of Following Hitler's Policy in Balochistan Ahmar Mustikhan the Examiner 21 September 2012
    Mehran accuses Pakistan of following Hitler's policy in Balochistan Ahmar Mustikhan The Examiner 21 September 2012 A voice of sanity from Balochistan, who is highly respected by Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari, profusely thanked the U.N. Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearance for visiting Balochistan. Speaking at the U.N. Human rights Council, Mehran Baluch, who is the youngest son of veteran leader Nawab Khair Bakhsh Marri, thanked Rapporteur chair Professor Olivier de Frouville and Professor Osman El-Hajje, who Thursday concluded a 10-day fact finding mission to Pakistan, with special focus on Balochistan. "Balochistan, as many in this council are fully aware, is today the world capital of enforced disappearances," Mehran Baluch told the premier Human Rights Council. He said these enforced disappearances in Balochistan pose the most serious challenge to the rights and freedoms promised by the U.N. to peoples of the world under Item 3. Mehran Baluch, who says that he was first sent to the U.N. by former Balochistan chief minister Sardar Ataullah Mengal, is widely respected as he has said Baloch militants do not have the right to become judge, jury and executioner. "I am sad to inform this council the chief judge of Pakistan refused to meet the U.N. team under the pretext that the issue was being heard in the Pakistani Supreme Court," Mehran Baluch said about request made by the Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearance for a meeting with the chief justice of Pakistan, Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry. "As if to add insult to injury, a second judge justice retired Javed Iqbal reportedly told the U.N.

Recommendations to the Federal Government of Pakistan and the Provincial Government of Balochistan Executive summary Human rights defenders, i.e. persons who uncover human rights violations, bring them to public knowledge and campaign for redress for victims through peaceful and non-violent means, were in December 1998 placed been under the special protection of the international community when the General Assembly adopted the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders. It was the first UN instrument that explicitly recognizes the importance and legitimacy of the work of human rights defenders and lays down their right to effective protection. This commitment has not been honoured in Balochistan. Human rights defenders - be they journalists investigating and documenting wrongdoings of state agents, lawyers representing victims of human rights abuses in court or human rights activists campaigning to end human rights violations – have been subjected to a range of human rights violations themselves. They have been harassed, arbitrarily arrested and detained, subjected to enforced disappearance, torture and extrajudicial killings.

  • Abstract Insurgency Is a Violent Political Struggle Borne out of Grievances in a Local Community
    Citation: Jilani, S. G., & Mujaddid, G. (2020). Theory and Practice of Insurgency and Counterinsurgency: The Case Study of Balochistan. Global Security and Strategic Studies Review, V(I), 1-13. https://doi.org/10.31703/gsssr.2020(V-I).01 Theory and Practice of Insurgency and Counterinsurgency: The Case Study of Balochistan Pages: 1 – 13 | Vol. V, No. I (Winter 2020) Sheikh Ghulam Jilani* | Ghulam Mujaddid† Abstract Insurgency is a violent political struggle borne out of grievances in a local community. The phenomenon of insurgency is old, and the ways of tackling insurgencies have always been studied with interest. Pakistan has faced sporadic insurgencies in its Balochistan province. This study applies conceptual framework propounded by Scott Moore to Balochistan insurgency and analyzes the complex combination of Actions triggered by varied Beliefs and Structures of the Baloch society. In order to employ effective countermeasures to insurgency, an integrated approach needs to be worked out that seeks to create positive changes in the intertwined dimensions of Actions, Beliefs and Structures. The study finds that such an approach to handle insurgency in Balochistan has generally been successful. And the Baloch society has largely been mainstreamed in the national society and the state of Pakistan. Key Words: Insurgency, Counterinsurgency, Balochistan, Pakistan, Actions, Beliefs and Structures, Scott Moore Introduction Insurgency is a politico-military struggle, carried through guerrilla warfare. As a form of political violence, the phenomenon of insurgency is as old as humanity itself. Guerrillas and partisans have existed throughout the recorded history, but their irregular conflict format has been transformed by the profound changes occurring in 20th century, when ‘social, economic, psychological, and, especially, political elements were combined with guerrilla tactics in order to radically alter the structure of the state by force’.
