Sir: Natural resources account for a large share of Balochistan’s wealth. Since 1952, Pakistan has been extracting large quantities of gas from Dera Bugti Sui Gas Field with a daily production of over 450 mmcfsd by Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL). The government has systematically imposed a policy of ‘deliberate underdevelopment’ in Balochistan, particularly in the Dera Bugti area. Today, out of Pakistan’s 100 districts, Dera Bugti tops the list on poverty, illiteracy, and unemployment at its peak. The opportunities of jobs are not available to local graduates. Moreover, on job special training opportunities are also not being provided to the local educated youth, which is causing hatred against the government. The government is required to intervene and work for the uplift of Dera Bugti.
