”Mother tongue education is considered as a fundamental right for every human being for it’s mental growth and diversity therefore Pakistan shall make provisions for the provinces to allow Baloch people to get education in their mother tongue.

Second Session: Soules in Trauma – Victimes of Aggression – Balochistan
Nasser Bolaidi, the President of UNPO said ” Their organizations is very much concerned about the enforced disappearances irrespective of who they are. But unfortunately, the issue of enforced disappearance is very alarming in Balochistan. Despite of several requests and appeals the Pakistani government has not taken any concrete steps to know the whereabouts and for the safe release of Baloch missing persons. And accordingly the status of human rights of the Baloch people in Iranian side is also worse. The Iranian regime through state policies has encircled Baloch people as they feel they are living in a prison and every body is waiting for his turn to be executed for any reason.”
Munir Mengal, The president of Baloch Voice Association and the co-organiser of the conference, presented a brief account of the Human Rights issues of the Baloch People. ”The Pakistani forces military operations in Balochistan, subjgation, supression and systematic enforced disappearence of the Baloch people give a very alarming sign that the state has opted a policy of slow genocide of the Baloch people.”
”The Pakistani state has not taken any step to secure the lives of Baloch Missing persons, infact the number of Missing persons has gradually increased to more then 20,000 reported by different media reports and human rights organizations working inside Balochistan. United Nations Organization and it’s bodies shall take practicle steps to secure the lives of thousands of Baloch missing persons.” Munir Mengal appealed.
”The will of the Baloch people resisting against enforced occupation and trying to protect their identity and to regain their sovernigty on their land gives a clear message that drawing artificial boundries is worse form of colonization and is unacceptble to any body at any part of the world.” Munir Mengal concluded.
Mehrab Sarjove, A Baloch analyst, writer, and a blogger presented a research paper about the Geostratic strategies and ambitions of both the Pakistani and of the Iranian Governments towards the Baloch Land and resources. ”The current Pak China Economic corridor agreement signed is an agreement of expansionism and a design to gain more strategic and naval depth inside the region. That is a clear violation of the fundament rights of the local people and poses a risk to the regional and international peace and security.”
”Unfortunately, both the states are religious cantonments despite of being welfare states. The mentioned states despite of giving peace and security to their people serve them with the threat. The Iranian Shiett regime neither has any moral values nor allows the Baloch people to adopt and exhibit their Balochi cultural, and cultural values.” Mr. Sarjove stated.
Sardar Shaukat Ali Kashmiri, a well known Kashmiri people political leader and general secretary of the United Kashmiri People Alliance. Who is known as a vocal voice for raising the human rights issues not only of the Kashmiri people, but also for the South Asian people, for his bold and loud standings.
