Those are some interesting challenges. Would you say the sardars have the same hold in the cities?
Apart from Quetta City and surroundings there is not much difference in type of politicians being elected. Mir Zafarullah Khan Jamali had a huge role in election of PTI MNA Mir Khan Muhammad Jamali. Only Oddity was Qasim Khan Suri who defeated Nawzada Lashkari Raisani which was major win against a prominent sardar in city of Quetta otherwise i didnt see anything out of ordinary. Every one else was either a sardar or had blessing of one.
I also wrote a story about sardars of Balochistan in a different thread today. I didnt go in much detail about them as i was writing on military matters in Balochistan predominantly relating to the OGDC and FC unfortunate incident but yes i heard the same about sardars too.
People blame Military establishment and state but as a matter of fact even they cant do much in Baluchistan. Most people are actually content with current form of system and all the resistance you see is to sustain the current status quo. When someone tries to take line of state he gets killed. You just cant rescue a fish from water.
