Turbat, Balochistan<\/strong> \u2013
Field Marshal and Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Asim Munir<\/strong> has reaffirmed that the Pakistan Army stands shoulder to shoulder with the people of Balochistan and will continue to play its full role in ensuring sustainable peace and development in the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the Army Chief visited Turbat<\/strong>, an important city in southern Balochistan, where he was received by Chief Minister of Balochistan Mir Sarfaraz Bugti, the Chief Secretary of Balochistan, and other senior officials<\/strong>. During the visit, he was comprehensively briefed about the province\u2019s security situation, the recent successful operations against anti-state elements, as well as various ongoing and upcoming development projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Security and Counter-Insurgency Achievements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The ISPR stated that the Army Chief was informed about the significant progress made in operations against hostile elements operating under the banner of \u201cFitna-e-Hindustan.\u201d These operations, conducted in collaboration with local law enforcement agencies, have played a critical role in dismantling networks aimed at destabilizing the province. The briefings highlighted that many hideouts of militants had been destroyed and that normalcy was gradually being restored in areas previously affected by insurgent activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Field Marshal Munir expressed his satisfaction over the operational successes and praised the resilience of both the security forces and the people of Balochistan. He emphasized that peace in Balochistan was directly linked to the stability and progress of the entire country, and that Pakistan Army would not allow any external or internal force to derail the process of peacebuilding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Importance of Governance and Development<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In his address during the visit, General Munir shed light on the vital importance of good governance, social development, and infrastructure projects<\/strong>. He underscored that military operations alone cannot resolve longstanding challenges, and that close collaboration between civilian and military institutions is essential to bring about meaningful change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He highlighted that effective governance, provision of justice, and socio-economic opportunities are necessary to address the grievances of the people of Balochistan. \u201cPeace is not only the absence of conflict,\u201d he said, \u201cbut the presence of justice, prosperity, and equal opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Social and Economic Commitment to Southern Balochistan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Field Marshal Asim Munir reiterated the Pakistan Army\u2019s unwavering commitment to the socio-economic uplift of southern Balochistan<\/strong>, a region that has long suffered from underdevelopment and neglect. He pointed to various development projects underway in the areas of education, healthcare, road networks, and water management as signs of progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He assured the people that the Army would continue to facilitate these initiatives and ensure that resources from the federal and provincial governments were utilized effectively and transparently. \u201cThe Pakistan Army is with the people of Balochistan in every step of their struggle for a better future,\u201d he said, \u201cand will remain a partner in efforts for peace and development until these goals are achieved.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Civil-Military Cooperation for Lasting Peace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Army Chief also stressed that only through a comprehensive approach involving both civil and military institutions<\/strong> can the province\u2019s challenges be resolved. He encouraged provincial officials to strengthen administrative structures, implement development policies efficiently, and ensure that the benefits of development projects reach the grassroots level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

General Munir noted that the trust and confidence of the people are the most valuable assets in achieving lasting stability. He urged all stakeholders to work together so that no section of the population feels marginalized or excluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acknowledgment of Soldiers\u2019 Sacrifices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Paying tribute to the sacrifices of soldiers and officers deployed across Balochistan, General Asim Munir acknowledged their dedication in the face of difficult and often dangerous conditions. He lauded their tireless efforts in maintaining security, facilitating development projects, and supporting civilian authorities during natural disasters and emergencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEach soldier deployed here is not just defending territory, but also securing the future of generations to come,\u201d he remarked. He added that the Pakistan Army\u2019s commitment to the province is not temporary, but a long-term responsibility grounded in national duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People\u2019s Role and Hope for the Future<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

General Munir emphasized that the people of Balochistan are central to the province\u2019s success. He praised their resilience, hospitality, and determination, noting that despite decades of challenges, the people have shown remarkable patience and strength. He assured them that their sacrifices and struggles would not go in vain, as the Pakistan Army and the state remain committed to empowering them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He further appealed to community leaders, students, intellectuals, and the youth of Balochistan to play their role in supporting peace and development, rejecting divisive narratives, and embracing the opportunities that are being created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

His message was clear: peace, development, and good governance must go hand in hand<\/strong>. By emphasizing civil-military cooperation, praising soldiers\u2019 sacrifices, and reaffirming the Pakistan Army\u2019s full commitment, General Munir sought to send a powerful signal of reassurance to the people of Balochistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
