March 24 (ANI):<br \/>\n   MQM<br \/>\n   supremo<br \/>\n   Altaf Hussain<br \/>\n   has firmly denounced the continuing repression in<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   and demanded an immediate resignation<br \/>\n   Pakistan President<br \/>\n   Asif Ali Zardari<br \/>\n   , Prime Minister<br \/>\n   Shehbaz Sharif<br \/>\n   , the Governor of<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   , and the Head Minister of<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   He asserted that if these leaders retain any trace of human compassion, they ought to resign from their roles, since they have not fulfilled their duty in safeguarding the people&#8217;s rights.<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   .\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Hussain stated that innocent Baloch citizens, particularly women and children, are enduring severe brutality. He referred to an incident as evidence.<br \/>\n   Quetta<br \/>\n   where members of the<br \/>\n   Baloch Yakjehti Committee<br \/>\n   staged a peaceful protest by carrying the bodies of innocent victims.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Rather than tackling the issues raised by protesters, the security forces employed disproportionate force, leading to the unfortunate fatalities and casualties among civilians, which included a young child aged 12. The head of the committee along with human rights advocates expressed concern over this incident.<br \/>\n   Mahrang Baloch<br \/>\n   He too was apprehended and forcibly removed in a degrading fashion, intensifying the regional strife even more.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Hussain conveyed his profound grief regarding the situation of the Baloch people and vehemently denounced the government\u2019s conduct. He pondered if it was acceptable for the state to mete out such harsh treatment to peaceful protesters, especially women and children. He posed this as a challenge.<br \/>\n   Shehbaz Sharif<br \/>\n   and his aunt Maryam Safdar, criticizing their trip to Saudi Arabia for Umrah as their administration keeps oppressing innocent Baloch citizens.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   The political leader emphasized the enduring suppression.<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   He stated that over the past 77 years, the inhabitants of the province have endured military campaigns, bombardments, and the denial of fundamental rights. The speaker cautioned that these grievances might breed bitterness amongst Baloch young people instead of fostering national loyalty.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Hussain highlighted a troubling trend of escalating state aggression during significant national events like August 14 and March 23. He condemned the authorities for ramping up their suppression of Baloch demonstrators shortly preceding Pakistan Day, suggesting that rather than gearing up for patriotic observances, the administration opted to quell peaceful expressions with force.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Altaf implored the residents of Punjab not to stay quiet when confronted with such heinous acts. He pondered how they would react if these wrongdoings were directed at themselves and appealed to the young individuals and all citizens of Punjab to rise up against tyranny.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   In addition, the British politician based in the United Kingdom appealed to reporters and media experts to cease disseminating false information aimed at appeasing those in power. He encouraged them to leave their positions if they were unable to report honestly and suggested they establish unbiased channels to expose the actual state of affairs.<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   .\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   In lieu of his party, Hussain conveyed support for the Baloch people and extended sympathies over the lives lost. He also called for the swift liberation of those detained.<br \/>\n   Mahrang Baloch<br \/>\n   And for all the other detained activists, Altaf called upon the nation\u2019s leaders and governmental bodies to renounce violence and participate in discussions aimed at resolving the current crisis.<br \/>\n   Balochistan<br \/>\n   peacefully.
