How much Punjab knows about Balochistan?
Editors note: We are presenting this video as an example of how the dominant narrative views the rest of Pakistan; in this instance, it is specifically Balochistan. In the ethically prejudicial discourse of our urban chattering elites, the Sindhis are “lazy fifth-columnists” and the Pushtuns are “noble Talibanesque savages”. The struggle by the Baloch which is as old as the history of Pakistan, is misrepresented as a “RAW fomented” exercise and the Balochis themselves are viewed as a group who are subservient to Sardars – in complete contradiction to the fact that the Bizenjos and Marris who lead the movemet for Baloch rights are not Sardars and that Bugti was killed as soon as he went against the Pakistani establishment.
(hardly) surprising video report by BBC Urdu:

Pakistan is heading in the direction of former Yugoslavia under the command of dangerous Punjabi establishment. Along with Balochistan, Sindh will also separate out from Pakistan. Implosion of Pakistan imminent.
Thanks for uploading this
After seeing this documentary, I feel that it is really a shame on the part of people of Punjab that they are criminally ignorant about the biggest province of their own country.
now how simple to make these people of Baluchistan are traitors, when they act in the way they do. If violence doesn’t get peoples attention – would secession do?
Punjab has the biggest population in Pakistan and only 10 persons’ views cannot be represent the whole punjab’s point of view. Even these people seems illiterate cz every Pakistani must have read about Provinces and their capitals in elementary classes.
Now come to the problem of Balochistan. Last September, I went to Quetta on an official trip. Balochs are great people, just like punjabis, pushtos, sindhis, muhajirs and others. If you ever heard about baloch liberation army (BLA), you should know that every killing in Balochistan is claimed by them, just like TTP. So no body can blame punjabis or muhajirs for the backwardness of balochs.
But, this is a fact that Punjab makes government in Pakistan. But they do elect the Balochs in balochistan assembly just like other assemblies. What do those elected representatives do? They o the same as others are doing in their respective Provinces.
So my dear sister, please don’t make opinions just on the basis of some media reports. Because their are hidden agendas of media too.
What BLA people claims is that since punjabis and muhajirs are more literate than balochs, so balochs are not developing. But the real question is that, who will teach if those foreigners leave balochistan? They kill literate persons whether male or female. That’s not what their illiterate masses want. You guys are Masha Allah literate. Try to understand. Our nation is, since a long time, in the hands of corrupt state enemies. Only change of faces will never build Pakistan. We have to do some real action.
@editor you need to do the research before you write something howcome mari’s are not so called sardars?
In India we are facing similar Problems, In India most of the states are formed under a Linguistic Basis,My state is Andhra Pradesh in Southern India, We are fighting for a Seperate state called Telangana for some 50 Years, Like Punjabis Using fake Pakistani Pride to dominate, Andhras are using fake Telugu pride to dominate us.
Regional autonomy may be cure for most of the Ills.
Punjab too suffers like Balochistan. If Balochistan has resources of gas and oil then Punjab has in the form of food as well. Why cant Punjabis use their own resources for themselves ?
Urdu is imposed on Punjabis as well as 150 years worth of ban on Punjabi language is still in place. Government too have played with Punjabis the way they did with Balochistan.The only thing Punjabis are hated is because they are more in numbers hence more competent.

This video is a clear example of how Punjabis have been brainwashed by our establishment. Punjab of Waris Shah and Bulleh shah “historically” had great relationship with Balochistan as Baloch hero mir chakar rind is buried near Sahiwal and Okara. Also,more Balochs live in Punjab as well. Like I said,The establishment is neither Punjabi,nor balochi nor anything but they have imposed everything on every ethnic group here.
HAHAHA does Punjab give a flying Fvck about Balochistan? The answer is a resounding NO!
Punjab has a population crisis so just like any dominant nation it’s occupying Balochistan and colonising it. Taking over it’s resources and allocating them where they are needed the most. Baloch maggots were sitting on top Gas reserves for 10000 years but couldn’t take any benefit out of it, these backwards donkeys have no right to live, they must be terminated and their lands taken over for the progress of humanity as a whole.
Baloch are a liability to humanity hence they must be exterminated.
Its all false propaganda. RAW does have involvement in Balochistan. Although Balochistan is lacking behind in every field but RAW is only exploiting the situation. One Question asked frequently was:
Name the cities of Balochistan?
The reasons why a common pakistani does not know much abt Balochistan are:
1. What Balochis have so far done for themselves to make them renowned?
All the development and eduction and progress in punjab is only because of Punjabi Provincial Government and Punjabis. every city of Punjab has been made renowned by the people themselves.
2. Why Balochi Provincial Government has always failed to build universities, colleges, hospitals, roads, recreational places and any thing which could attract the attention of people and people start knowing their place.
3. Why balochis have so far failed to industrialize their cities to attract employment from all over the country.
4.Why havent they build a single top class university to attract millions of students from all over Pakistan.
5. Y havent they made Gawadar as attractive as Karachi.
More than 60 years have passed and they havent done a single thing in their province worth mentioning which could attract attention of people and people start knowing abt Balohistan except this violance and stuff.
Every government of Punjab, be it PML Q, PML N or PPP, has made roads, bridges, underpasses, universities, colleges, schools, factories and many other projects. Althought Punjbi Govts have alwayss been involved in corruption, however they have followed one rule:
“First Bake the Cake, then eat it”
Balochistan Govt and their people have only eaten the cake nd its ingrediants.never baked one. noting to do with TTP, or BLA or any thing sactatrian. Their Sardars have kept a common baloch in submission and havent educated Balochis so that their Sardari could prevail.
Moreover, this documantry is Bull Shit. They have interviewed few stupid people on Anarkali Chowk who are illiterate having no awareness or exposure.
