The Challenge- Balochistan Accounts
for 45% of Pakistan’s land area 70% of Pakistan’s coastline Nearly one-third of Pakistan’s natural gas 100% of Pakistan’s copper and gold deposits, significant deposits of coal, iron core, marble, granite, and other minerals Ideally located for trade with Iran, Afghanistan, and Central Asian Republics
but still remains the nation’s poorest Province Why?

The reasons are a combination of Physical and Human factors

2929
Physical FactorsThe basic development predicament for Balochistan is:
45% of the land area of Pakistan, but only 5% of the population
Much of the land is arid, calling for special strategies of water use
![Page 30: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
3030
Population Thinly Dispersed and Poorly
Connected In 2010, Balochistan's population density at 19 persons per square kilometer was only 5, 8, and 9 percent respectively of that of the Punjab, Sindh, and the KP Province
Remoteness was made worse by poor transport infrastructure. [In Balochistan, 28% of rural communities lack motorable access (all Pakistan 15%), and 73% lack paved access (all Pakistan 32%)]
![Page 31: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Human Factors: 1. Political Unrest
Balochistan has been the scene of political unrest since independence of Pakistan.
The province has witnessed political violence for decades
Current insurgency (5th) finds its basis in political disempowerment and issues circulating around owner ship of natural resources and their returns 31
![Page 32: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Low Representation at the Centre
Democratic Deficit at the National Level Out of 342 seats of the National
Assembly, only 17 (4.9%) (General: 14, Women: 3) are allocated to Balochistan
Balochistan does not enjoy fair representation in federal services and armed forces, specially senior bureaucracy at the Centre
32
![Page 33: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Underdeveloped Human Resources
Sixty- three percent of the population aged 15 and above years has never attended school (women 85 percent)
95% of the total area is under control of Levies that requires massive restructuring and training
Reluctance of the officers from APUG/DMG in Balochistan has also aggravated the situation
![Page 34: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
The Physical & Human Factors Drag Down Growth of
Balochistan’s Income GDP growth in Balochistan has been slower than in the other provinces
Between 1972/73 and 2004/05, Balochistan‘s GDP is estimated to have grown at an average rate of 4.1 percent a year in real terms. This rate was 0.7 percent lower than that of the KP Province and Sindh‘s, and 1 percent lower than that of the Punjab.
![Page 35: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Factors impact heavily on Socio-Economic
Indicators Balochistan stands out as the province with the
weakest social indicators. In 2010/11 it scored lowest in 12 out of 13 key indicators for education, literacy, health, water, and sanitation
According to a recent report of Pakistan’s Senate Functional Committee on Problems of Less Developed Areas, Dera Bugti, its neighbourhood Kohlu and Pakistan’s nuclear test zone Chagai are among the five most ignored districts of the country during 2011-12 35
![Page 36: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
36
Indicators Thus Balochistan has eight in the list of the
first ten most underprivileged districts. Dera Bugti (Status-wise: 113th position), Kohlu (111) and Chagai (110) with Balochistan being the most deprived province.
In terms of Literacy, among districts in Pakistan, Dera Bugti & Barkhan are the lowest ranked districts with (6.0%) literacy rate. This is much lower than the lowest ranking districts in other provinces i.e. Rajan Pur (Punjab) 34%, Thatta (Sind) 36%, and Kohistan (KPK) 26%.
36
![Page 37: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
37
Indicators With regards to Food Insecurity, among
districts in Pakistan, Dera Bugti in Balochistan has the highest percentage of food insecure people (82.4%). The 20 districts of Pakistan with worst conditions for food security include 10 districts from Balochistan.
In terms of provincial comparison, Balochistan has the highest (61.2%) food insecure population. The number of districts from Balochistan in this category has doubled since 2003.

38
Administrative Efficiency-Scarce Human
Capital In Balochistan, the public sector has
continuously faced acute shortage of experienced, well trained, highly educated and professional work force to carry out its activities efficiently and effectively.
Limited Human Capital in Balochistan could not tap the natural wealth to its optimum level and maximize socio-economic returns that led to shaky administration and inefficient economic development 38

Part V: Law and Order

Where we were a year ago
Balochistan-under siege Quetta- caught in vicious circle of sectarian
killings, target killings, terrorism Hazara community-forced to do sit-in
protests for expressing their grief Highways-unsafe to travel even at day time Kidnapping for ransom-profession instead
of a crime National media-mocking the government
for its failures and absence of governance
![Page 41: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Where we are today
Normalcy has returned to major urban centers
Only few areas in the South and East remain troubled
Quetta residents have resumed their everyday activities
Commercial centers open till late Sports, Official and Social activities have
picked up Appreciation by the citizens and the media

Emerging Trends and Lesson Learnt
Indicators show decrease in heinous crime
Quetta is back in control and strict security checks have been relaxed
With terrorism and sectarian violence subsiding, Insurgency is now main threat
Basic policing needs to be strengthened
Intelligence led operations pay peace dividends

Social Workers and Professional are not marginalized sections of society
Social Workers and Professionals have not been given special treatment in the constitution
Taking away reserved seats from peasant and workers is discriminatory
Show of hands is Ultra vires of Article 226 of Constitution
Electoral process subverted as amendments made during the process
Basis of Decision of High Court
![Page 75: Mcmc final october 2014](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062708/558a96cbd8b42a93358b458b/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)

8 months have passed since the election to general seats
Restlessness amongst the elected representatives
General population also awaiting resolution SCP was in recess during August Cannot speculate the outcome and
timeline Leader of the house cannot be elected
without completion of the house
Present Scenario

Option I- Wait for the case to be decided in the SCP
Option II- Accept the decision of the Balochistan High Court and withdraw CPLA from SCP which has to be justified in the court(Other parties need to be convinced to do the same)
2 Options
