Balochistan Chief Minister Abdul Malik Baloch has said that dialogue with separatists is a top priority of the provincial government.
Addressing a ceremony arranged by the World Congress for Overseas Pakistanis and later talking to a private television channel, the Balochistan CM said he had no schedule to hold talks with the separatist Baloch leaders during his visit to London as the “environment is not suitable for political dialogue”.
He said the provincial government was bound to face challenging issues, including militancy.
“The 21st century is not the era of gun and bullet,” he said, adding that democratic values should be promoted for which dialogue should be initiated so that law and order may be restored in the province for the prosperity of future generations.
