Balochistan issue to be resolved by engaging all stakeholders
Replying to a question on the Balochistan issue, he said a committee has been constituted to contact political leadership of the country to convene an All Parties Conference.
Gilani said he will meet with the Governor and Chief Minister of Balochistan very soon to consult with them and to engage all stakeholders in consultations for the improvement in Balochistan.
Talking about measures taken to improve the situation in Balochistan, he said the government had already initiated the Aghaz-e-Haqqoq-e-Balochistan programme which is a first step to ensure the rights of the people in the province.
While admitting it as a small step, but ensured that the government was committed to ensure the basic rights and privileges to the people living in Balochistan.
It is our responsibility as the federal government and responsibility as prime minister of the country to resolve the grievances of the people of Balochistan as they are very much committed to integrity, solidarity, progress and prosperity of the country.
The Balochis, he said, had sacrificed for Pakistan and were as loyal to the country as those from other parts of the country.
About the resolution in the United States House of Representatives on Balochistan, he said that the the US government had made it clear that the resolution had nothing to do with its official policy.
