QUETTA, July 17: Balochistan Chief Minister Jam Mir Mohammad Yousuf has said the government could not be terrified through violence and terrorism.

"It will continue at all costs," Jam Yousuf announced at the opening a party office in Ziarat. People opposed to the development process never supported Pakistan, he said and added that they did not want development of the province and its people.

Jam Yousuf said he would take all decisions in the larger interest of the people through consulting them.
