A passing-out parade of the Pakistan Army’s Baloch Regiment was held in Quetta on Saturday where a group of another 350 Baloch youth were sworn in.
Brigadier Khushnud Hussain was the chief guest of the event. He conferred shields and swords on the soldiers.
Speaking to reporters after the ceremony, the brigadier said Baloch youth were being given extraordinary exemptions in age and education as part of efforts to address the sense of deprivation among them.
The youth belonged to various parts of the restive provinces, including Mastaung, Quetta, and Loralai.
The Baloch took oath of loyalty for Pakistan and expressed their resolve to sacrifice their lives in the line of duty.
