QUETTA, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 13th Jul, 2026) Balochistan Chief Minister, Mir Sarfraz Bugti on Monday said that there was an organized conspiracy of the enemy to target innocent citizens through terrorism and then blame the state for it and promote distrust and chaos in Balochistan, however, the joint strength of the government and the people would thwart all such conspiracies.

He said that the path of Pakistan and Balochistan was the track of peace, stability and development and they would not deviate from this path through any pressure or terrorism.

He made these remarks while addressing a condolence reference held in Quetta on the eighth death anniversary of the great political leader of Balochistan and martyr Nawabzada Mir Siraj Khan Raisani.

The condolence reference was attended by Balochistan Chief Minister, Mir Sarfraz Bugti, Member of National Assembly Nawabzada, Mir Jamal Khan Raisani, provincial ministers Bakht Muhammad Kakar, Mir Ziaullah Lango, Mir Asim Kurd Gello, Mir Saleem Khan Khosa, Pakistan Peoples Party leaders, elders of Raisani tribes, political and social figures and a large number of people.

At the beginning of the ceremony, Quran recitation and langar (free food) were also organized to pay homage to Shaheed Mir Siraj Khan Raisani.

The Chief Minister said that if the problem of Balochistan could be solved with his life, then he was ready to give his life, because for him, not the position but the service of the people of Balochistan was the prime priority.

He said that the chair was something to be desired, the real goal was to serve the people and establish peace and development in the province.

Mir Sarfraz Bugti said that the government was ready to take all possible steps to establish peace in Balochistan and the state considered the protection of people's lives and property as its prime responsibility.

He said that the dream of separating Balochistan from Pakistan through terrorism and violence could never be fulfilled, terrorists would only become an obstacle to progress, prosperity and a bright future for the people.

He said that the government’s top priorities were education, health, employment and sustainable development of Balochistan, while mischievous elements were misleading the youth and pushing them into a futile war.

Addressing the Indian guardians, he said that no matter how many Siraj Raisanis were martyred, another Siraj Raisani would rise from every house of this land and stood for the defense and security of the homeland.

He said that the mission of Shaheed Nawabzada, Mir Siraj Khan Raisani would continue and his sacrifice could always be a beacon of light for the nation.

The Chief Minister said that politics over the sacrifices of the martyrs was regrettable, the government stood with the heir of the martyrs and has expressed solidarity by visiting all the victims of terrorism including Babri, Hanna Urak and Ziarat.

He said that the legitimate demands of the families of the martyrs would be fulfilled and the provincial government could fulfill all its constitutional responsibilities.

He said that innocent laborers were martyred in Mashkail yesterday but their heir did not stage a sit-in anywhere. Similarly, a few days ago, Mir Shafiqur-ur-Rehman Mengal’s house was attacked, he buried his martyrs and did not do politics over the bodies. If politics had been the aim of the bodies, he would have protested instead of burying them.

The Chief Minister said that even after tragic incidents like the Khadhkocha tragedy, the August 8 tragedy and the Police Line attack, the problems were not solved by resignations, but the situation was improved with practical steps.

He said that his governance, performance and administrative affairs should definitely be criticized, but the sacrifices of the martyrs should not be used for political purposes saying that the opposition should talk about the shortcomings of the government but avoid politics over the blood of the martyrs.

Mir Sarfraz said that the soldiers of Pakistan Army, FC, Police and other law enforcement agencies were sacrificing their lives every day to establish peace in Balochistan.

He said that the government and the people stood with their brave security forces in the past, were still standing today and would continue to stand in the future.

The CM said that peace, stability and protection of the people in Balochistan were the top priority of the government.

Speaking on the occasion, Member of National Assembly, Nawabzada Mir Jamal Khan Raisani said that his father always stood by the state of Pakistan, and he would also stand by the state with the same determination.

He said that he would not hesitate to make any sacrifice for the development, peace and prosperity of Balochistan.

At the end, special prayers were offered for the elevation of the ranks of all the martyrs of the beloved country, including Shaheed Nawabzada Mir Siraj Khan Raisani, for the security, peace and development and prosperity of Balochistan.
