Any source for this outrageous claim?
Sui gas in Balochistan
Balochistan is the backbone of Pakistan, as Balochistan is full of natural resources. Natural gas is also giving many advantages to the citizens of the Pakistan. Natural gas was discovered at Sui gas field in 1952 and by 1955 and being supplied in different cities of the country. Today Sui gas is the backbone of Pakistan’s economy, located in Dera Bugti.
Unfortunately Balochistan is the most backward province and Dera Bugti is the most undeveloped part of the province.
The saddening news is that still
many places of Balochistan are without Sui gas. The first provinces were
Punjab and Sindh, who were being supplied Sui gas. After 60 years only 14 towns of Balochistan are enjoying supply from this gas to date. Otherwise the town Sui, itself does not have gas, which is only 4 miles away from the gas discovery city. The people are compel to use wood and coal as fuel and facing many problems.
Even though the capital Quetta, received gas supply as late as 1970. Then in 1990, Hub also got gas supply because it is full of industries. But the
most cities of Balochistan are deprived from Sui gas and no one is interested to provide it to the areas of Balochistan and allow the citizens to enjoy Sui gas.
The Balochistan Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources, Mr Jam Kamaal announced to provide Sui gas to Iran and other countries for some beneficial things. But first they should provide Sui gas to whole the country, especially in Balochistan. The
half of Balochistan population is living below poverty and deprived from their basic needs. The rich people can manage themselves, by not having Sui gas. Unfortunately the poor can not afford to eat three times of food, how they can manage themselves.
With the passage of time, the poverty line is increasing and creating more trouble for the citizens. It is unfortunate that provincial government is not focusing to ensure more widespread gas supply in Balochistan.
The
discovered natural resources, must first benefits the province, where it has been discovered. It is totally inverse, as other are getting full advantages of it. And many urban and rural areas of Balochistan are failed to get Sui gas.
The remote areas of Punjab have been getting Sui gas, since the discovery of it. The provincial government of Balochistan has never seen to ensure Sui gas supply in the urban and rural areas of Balochistan.
Not only that,
only 10 percent population of Balochistan is enjoying gas supply, while the rest of the province is deprived from this beneficial thing. These days many promises are being made for the development of Gwadar. The saddening news is that
Gwadar is facing many problems including clean water and Sui gas. Due to not having supply of Sui gas the people are forced to buy wood, coal and petrol to meet their fuel needs. The
people of Gwadar have also expressed the sadness about the supply of gas.
The Pakistan most developing project (CPEC) is also present in Gwadar. Our leaders have promised that CPEC is full of advantage for Gwadar and Pakistan. It will bring a vital change for the people of Gwadar. But we have not seen anything or any changes occurring in Gwadar, still people lives are totally disturbed. If government want the beneficial of Gwadar so
Gwadar must be provided Sui gas, which is a huge problem occurring in Gwadar.
Today Balochistan is going toward backwardness because Balochistan is not getting any benefits from its own natural resources. It is the responsible of government and concern authorities to give
equal rights to the poor people of Balochistan. The concern authorities should provide supply of gas and other facilities in whole over Balochistan that the people could get full advantages and live calm and peacefully.
