What is the biggest challenge facing Pakistan today, in my view it is Balochistan and I shall tell you why. Foreign actors are showing more than their fair share of interest in this province of Pakistan. But there are a lot of factors playing against those who want Baluchistan separated from Pakistan. The biggest factor is the fact that 50% of the population of Balochistan is Pashtoon and this segment is highly islamised and against the break up of an Islamic country to the extent that any dreams of a new state will evaporate as soon as the Pashtoon population showed its true colours. In any democratic process a referendum is required to create a new state but with 50% of the population opposing it, the defeat of such a motion is assured. Every Pakistani, weather he is a Baloch, Sindhi, Pashtoon or Punjabi should rise up against this foreign agenda of breaking up their motherland and fight for independence not only from those who live outside but also who are there agents inside. Rise up now or there will never be another chance to do what you can do and say what you want to say.
