After the appointment of Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar, the toll of Balochistan’s dignities who are serving the federal government against the key posts has reached four, reported the 24NewsHDTV channel.
Caretaker Prime Minister Anwar Haq Kakar belongs to Balochistan while Chairman Senate Sadiq Sanjrani is also from Balochistan province.
Justice Qazi Faiz Isa, who will be assumed the charge as Chief Justice of Pakistan from September 16, is also from Balochistan.
Noor Ul Amin Mengal Capital Development Authority Chairman and Chief Commissioner Islamabad also belongs to Balochistan province.
Balochistan is the largest province of Pakistan, making up approximately 43 percent of the total area of the country. It is also the poorest and least populated. It is rich in mineral resources and the major supplier of natural gas after Sindh. One of the world‟s biggest copper deposits have been found at Reko Diq in the Chaghi district of Balochistan. But the people of Balochistan have a deep sense of deprivation that the center does not pay full attention to them.
The successive governments of Islamabad have been trying to accommodate the leaders of Balochistan against various key federal posts.
