Balochistan National Party-Mengal (BNP-M) chief Sardar Akhtar Mengal said European Union (EU) should not cancel sending its observers to Balochistan to monitor the upcoming general elections, giving in to establishment’s pressure.
Addressing a press conference at his residence on Thursday, Mengal demanded the EU and the international community to send observers to Balochistan to monitor the upcoming polls.
“Their presence would help ensure fair polls,” Mengal added.
He demanded that EU probe into injustices committed against the Baloch masses by the establishment.
Mengal further said the establishment does not want EU observers to monitor elections which he said was part of a conspiracy to keep his party away from polls.
He said Balochistan’s situation was not worse than other war zones of the world where the EU had sent observers.
The BNP chief said former ministers were still using official vehicles and resources for their campaign and urged the Election Commission of Pakistan to take notice of it.
He also demanded transfer of old bureaucrats from different districts of Balochistan.
