Very sad news. Why these baloch militants killing people from punjab selectively. These are mostly poors not the establishment people.
Haterd for punjab in Balochistan reached same level as that was in Bangladesh.
QUETTA: The bodies of the fourteen coach passengers last night abducted and slain near Mach of District Bolan have been recovered Tuesday morning from the nearby mountains.
Mach Assistant Commissioner, Kashif Nabi told Geo News that some unknown armed persons last night abducted 14 persons from two coaches at a place called Kashtari near Mach, whose bodies have been found from the nearby mountains this morning.
**All these passengers were shot to death, who are being identified, he said. He further told that all these murdered persons belonged to Sadiqabad, Rajanpur and other areas of Punjab.

Following the incident, the security forces have cordoned off the area and the hunt for the accused was in progress.
One security man was killed and two wounded in a shootout out that ensued as the security forces intervened during the abduction of the passengers from the coaches Monday night.
And if I tell you the questions that were asked in first 30-40 years of "army recruitment" it will not be easy to swallow for people around ;)
What sort of questions they could have asked during that period in a hierarchical organization having non-punjabi COAS?
[QUOTE]
Who "nominates" a COAS? Do you know what is the "criteria" for picking a COAS? ;)

You want to tell us that Ayub khan was appointed the country's first native commander-in-chief by Liaquat Ali Khan?
or Zia ul Haq was appointed by Zulifqar Ali bhutto?
or just ducking the point?

Any question that would hint of a candidate from "Hindustan", non-Punjabi or no-army-relatives would be a starter.

naa ji naa, marday momin marday haq Ziaul Haq was the most deserving candidate for COAS, this is what you are implying right? And same goes for Musharraf too?

Pathans were always considered a martial race, but what about the others?
Poplutaion of Punjab 55% Bugdet 871 billion (44%)
Polutaion of Sindh 23% Budget 617 billion (31.2%)
Population KPK 13.5% Budget344 billion
Population of Balochistan 5% Budget 198 billion (10%)
Theseare budget figures of 2013-14 . Punjab gest LEAST **money per capita, Balochistan****MOST **per capita. Sindh gets more than KPK and Punjab percapita and less than Balochistan.
What about last 30-40 years? Was the ratio similar?
I am not aware 30-40 years ago but since I have been following the budgets I have seen a similar ratio, with ratio for Balochistan increasing in last few years from around 7% to 10%.
FIRSTLY, quoting the well head price just tells one side of the story. You have to take into account the operational costs of gas produced in each province and when it was discovered. The gas discovered and produced later will need a lot more infrastructure development, operational costs and fees to the companies involved than the wells operational for decades. Secodnly, if Punjabis were killing Balochs, Muhajirs like what happened in Balochistan and Karachi, I will be very happy for an operation in Punjab.
It is your sheer hatred that made you think that I was talking about Altaf or MQM. You the only "patriots" never seem to notice people like Jeay Sindh or Baloch Liberation Army. And these are just the two examples.
It is not surprising to see hatred filled post coming from YOU. For obvious reasons, you only show up when you see a need to spew hatred against Urdu speaking people in the guise of abusing MQM.
Anyone who thinks that Punjab should not take Pakistan's burden then he will allies with many folks in smaller provinces.
Since you only appear to defend your religious leader Altaf, you dodn't notice other topics.

Lots of "politics" is based on the numbers from past esp game of MQM and separatist parties.

Yes there are mountain ranges and oceans in Punjab. I seem to have forgotten them, so can you refresh my memory ???
