QUETTA: Workers and supporters of the Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) staged a motorcycle rally here on Saturday. Party’s president Jam Mir Kamal Khan Alyani, who was also riding a bike, led the rally.

A large number of motorcyclists carrying party flags and banners started the rally from Government Degree College Quetta Cantonment and passed through main roads before culminating at the Zarghoon Road. Participants kept raising slogans in favour of the party and its leadership.

Mr Alyani while addressing the participants said that BAP leadership believed in restoring peace in the province as without peace and order development could not be ensured. The party, he said, was established to protect the rights of people that Islamabad allegedly denied to them.

“We will protest for the rights of people and struggle for the youth of Balochistan,” he said, adding that youth who participated in the peace rally were the real power of the party.
