JWP to invite nationalists to form single party
QUETTA, Nov 13: The Jamhoori Watan Party has decided to formally invite Baloch nationalist leaders to form a single political party to launch a collective struggle for the rights of the people of Balochistan.
The decision was taken at a two-day executive meeting of the party held at Dera Bugti to discuss the prevailing political situation, especially additional deployment of troops allegedly aimed for launching a military operation in Dera Bugti, Kohlu and Gwadar. The meeting was chaired by JWP chief Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti.
Talking to newsmen after the meeting on Sunday, JWP leader Senator Amanullah Kanrani said a committee headed by Agha Shahid Hussain Bugti would meet Baloch leaders.
He said the delegation would visit Karachi to formally invite Nawab Khair Bakhsh Marri, leader of Baloch Haq Tawar; Sardar Ataullah Mengal, chief of Ponam; Dr Hayee Baloch, chairman of the National Party; Ghulam Mohammad, president of the Baloch National Movement; and others.
Referring to Nawab Bugti’s proposal of May 15, urging Baloch nationalist leaders and tribal elders to merge their political groups into a single political organization to struggle collectively, Senator Kanrani said that the party delegation would discuss with Baloch leaders the formation of a single party.
Mr Kanrani said that in the first phase a meeting of those Baloch writers, intellectuals, students who have registered their names to attend deliberations for formation of single political party would be convened in Quetta to ascertain their views on the objectives and aims of the proposed organization.
