KARACHI:

A high level delegation of govt ministers and notables who went to meet Khan of Kalat have failed to persuade him to end his self-imposed exile and return to Pakistan.

Mir Ahmed Suleman Daud Khan was urged to come back and play his role in ending the ongoing insurgency and for the development of Balochistan.

The delegation, comprising Nawab Mohammed Khan Shahwani, Sardar Kamal Khan Bangulzai, Mir Kabir Mohammadshahi and Mir Khalid Lango and others, was sent by the provincial government.

A statement issued by the Khan of Kalat in London stated that according to the Balochi custom the delegation reported the situation in the insurgency-stricken Balochistan. They told the Khan that “the political, security, and economical conditions in Balochistan have gone from bad to worse”, and that “there is no end to violence” there.
