A grand Peace Jirga was held in Quetta under the banner of Ittehad-e-Ummat Balochistan, bringing together prominent religious, political, and tribal leaders from across the province. The participants discussed peace, constitutional rights, economic upliftment, and public welfare in Balochistan.
Addressing the gathering, former Jamaat-e-Islami chief Siraj-ul-Haq strongly condemned the involvement of Indian proxies in terrorism within the province, calling it “intolerable and unacceptable.” He stressed that Balochistan must be granted its due constitutional and economic rights to ensure long-term stability.
Professor Saifullah Khalid echoed these concerns, saying the federal government must take effective and urgent measures to counter India’s role in terrorism in Balochistan.
Pir Syed Haroon Ali Gilani emphasized that securing and clearing all major routes in the province is the state’s fundamental responsibility so that both civilians and traders can live and work in peace.
The Peace Jirga was attended by a wide range of influential figures, including:
Siraj-ul-Haq, Professor Saifullah Khalid, Pir Syed Haroon Ali Gilani, Qari Muhammad Yaqoob Sheikh, Maulana Abdul Qadir Loi, Dabir Hussain, Muhammad Afzal Tajik, Abdul Hadi, Abdul Haq Hashmi, Mira Khan Niazi, Mir Shahjahan, Shafiq-ur-Rehman, Saud Sasoli, Muhammad Aslam, Dr. Haroon, Shakir Khan Raisani, Abdul Rasheed, Syed Habibullah Chishti, Nadir Khan Achakzai, Mir Faiz Marri, Saqib, Abdullah Baloch, and Muhammad Idrees.
