NEW DELHI: PRESIDENT of Baloch American Congress Tara Chand has written to the United States President Donald Trump, urging him to address the ongoing human rights violations committed by the Pakistani military in Balochistan, including enforced disappearances, torture, and extrajudicial killings.
In a letter to Trump, the Baloch leader highlighted the decades-long systematic repression by the Pakistani authorities across Balochistan, where people, land, and resources have been exploited without consent, and the world has largely ignored its cries for justice.
“The Pakistani military, dominated by a Punjabi elite, has used Balochistan’s wealth as a bargaining chip in global deals, while subjecting the Baloch people to enforced disappearances, military operations, censorship, and economic disenfranchisement. Mr. President, this is not simply a regional issue; it is a moral one. It is about a nation fighting for its right to self-determination, to live freely, and to control its own resources,” the letter detailed.
