DESERT FIGHTER do complete "honour the baloch...". If i am not wrong it is "honour the baloch, buy the pashtun, rule the punjabis and intimidate the sindhis"
Let me share more british policy rules for different communities of india
1. Give food to Bengalis, fear to Sindhis, land to Punjabis, money to pathans, respect to Balochis, job to Gurkhas, palaces to Rajputs & education to Hindus.
2. Give titles to Pathan Nawabs, horse lands to Punjabi Nawabs, gun salutes to Baloch Nawabs, jaagirs to Sikh Nawabs and patronage to Hindu Nawabs.
3. Keep a Bengali, hungry; a Sindhi, illiterate; a Pathan, near; a Balochi,
away, a Punjabi, busy; a Sikh, pompous and a hindu, loyal.
4. Never employ a Bengali; Never trust a Pathan, Never empower a Punjabi, Never confront a
Balochi, Never educate a Sindhi, Never squabble a
Hindu, Never belittle a Rajput, Never trade a Memon.
These are not compliments ,they were exploiting the weaknesses to rule them all. Impoverished malaks of pathans were bought through allowances. Punjabis were expected to be ruled, as they have always been. Sindhis were percieved as cowards and were intimidated into subjugation. Simple Balochs were won over simply by bestowing their sardars with honour and titles.
