In a statement that could embarrass Pakistan, which has claimed that India is fuelling unrest in Balochistan, a Baloch Senator has said there is no proof to suggest that New Delhi is fomenting trouble there.
"We don't have a proof. As a representative of Baloch people and a leader of a National Party, I have no information on this. Maybe, intelligence agencies of India and Pakistan have knowledge about it," Baloch leader and Senator Mir Hasil Bizenjo said on Tuesday night.
He was replying to queries after the release of the autobiography of his late father Mir Ghaus Bakhsh Bizenjo titled: In Search of Solutions.
He was asked whether he, as a leader of Balochistan, is aware of India's involvement in the region.
Asking India to realise the threat perception posed by terrorism from its neighbourhood, the Senator said terror emanating from Afghanistan reached Pakistan in no time and New Delhi should keep this fact in mind.
The war "fought in Afghanistan (in 1980's) did not bother Pakistanis. But ultimately Peshawar or Frontier (in Pakistan) bore the brunt on a daily basis... If, India and Iran along with Afghanistan and Pakistan do not devise a strategy then it has every potential to reach in these countries," he said.
Pakistan has claimed that India promotes terrorism in Balochistan, situated on Pak-Afghan border.
