BLACK DAY: The Baloch Students Organization has announced that it will observe 'Black Day' for three days from Wednesday to condemn a search operation launched in Turbat and other areas of the Makran coastal belt.
Speaking at a press conference at the press club here on Tuesday, student leader Imdad Baloch criticized what he called atrocities and excesses committed by the law-enforcement agencies at the behest of the Punjab leadership against innocent Balochs.
He said the army on Monday launched a search operation in Makran with the help of helicopters to harass natives and arrested many people, besides insulting women. The action, he alleged, had been taken against the people who were opposing the so-called mega projects.
