The advancement and prosperity of the province of Balochistan and its people remained a primary priority for the current government, as President Asif Ali Zardari reaffirmed on Monday.
He declared his intention to play their rightful part in maintaining Pakistan’s stability and further resolved to set Balochistan on the path of wealth and advancement.
The president was speaking during a luncheon held in his honor at the invitation of Balochistan’s Chief Minister, Mir Sarfaraz Ahmed Bugti, according to a press statement from the President Secretariat Press Wing.
Because of its extensive coastal strip and natural wealth, the president claimed that Balochistan was special.
The globe was progressing quickly, he said, emphasizing the need for new technology to be used to explore natural riches in the provinces.
In order for the province to generate enough yield, he stated that they will work to make the uncultivated areas into cultivable land using efficient irrigation systems.
In his view, the 18th Amendment, which was passed during their previous administration and was intended to protect provincial rights and advance national development, had benefited all of the provinces.
Although the province was endowed with rich supplies of gas and oil, President Zardari noted that they had not kept up with the most recent developments in this industry and that there was still time to use these natural resources to suit the nation’s economic needs.
Speaking of the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP), he stated that it was helping low-income and worthy families and made hints about the possibility of expanding similar programs.
In particular, he stated that he would like to strive toward the advancement and prosperity of the people of Balochistan province and the nation as a whole.
In addition, he emphasized the importance of political discourse in resolving any disputes and pledged the province government full assistance in order to facilitate chances for their development.
