JUI-F vows to keep fighting for constitutional supremacy in Balochistan

Quetta witnessed a party workers’ gathering where Maulana Abdul Wasey, the JUI-F Balochistan chief, expressed his party's unwavering commitment to advancing the Constitution's supremacy and championing democratic values through peaceful political means. He denounced the hardships faced by residents, who struggled during winters and resorted to expensive alternatives for their daily needs.

Maulana Wasey emphasized that the people of Balochistan, rich in natural resources and mineral reserves, were unjustly deprived of basic amenities, including gas, and called for improvements in the gas supply system, an end to unannounced loadshedding and shortages, and a halt to discriminatory treatment of the region's residents.

He demanded that their constitutional and legal rights be respected, and that the state fulfill its responsibility in providing essential facilities such as education, healthcare, employment, electricity, gas, and clean drinking water. Maulana Wasey firmly stated that resolving Balochistan's issues would necessitate a strategic approach, practical measures, and consultation with the province's elected representatives.
