Re: Baluchistans vanishing citizens..
Good points.
The key is to destroy the Sardari system without destroying the Balochi nation. Force should be used to give the land of Sardars to ordinary farmers, not to kill and detain random tribesmen. And Balochis should be made to feel that they can be trusted to run their own land, with some limits of course to stop any secessionist movement. If they don’t want development in Gawadar or want development on their own terms, no need to force them to do something else.
Trust won't develop by telling them that Punjab knows best about their development needs. They will just see this as another conspiracy to destroy Balochs, and they wouldn’t be that wrong either, with the land mafia and all.
As long as democratic institutions can function without Sardar influence, Balochis should be left to administer themselves on an equal basis within the confines of the federation. One thing is for sure, forced assimilation of Balochis into Pakistan will never succeed.
