KHUZDAR: Director General of Levies Force Mujeeb Ur Rehman Qambrani has said his force has been playing a vital role in restoring peace in Balochistan.

While visiting Regional Training Centre of Levies here on Sunday and addressing soldiers of Balochistan Levies Force, he said his force has been maintaining law and order across Balochistan, particularly in Khuzdar.

“Our force has rendered immense sacrifices in order to secure lives and properties of the people and maintain law and order across Balochistan,” he said.

Mr Qambrani said peace had returned to Khuzdar which had once turned into the most volatile city of Balochistan. “The people of the province have now been expressing their trust in our force.”

He said the provincial government had been utilising all resources to strengthen capabilities of the force. It had promised to provide modern weapons and training to recruits, he added.
