QUETTA: Leader of the Balochistan chapter of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf Sardar Yar Mohammad Rind has demanded formation of a truth commission before the signing of a new agreement on Reko Diq project.

“Major decisions are necessary for economic stability in the province and the country,” he said.

Mr Rind said that Reko Diq project was the property of the people of Balochistan and it was important to inform elected representatives about the matter.

He said the decisions of the proposed commission should be made public and those found guilty should be punished.
