To achieve the Independence all Baluch should have the liberation of Baluchistan in common.



The Baluch society has moved from the tribal stage of social organisation toward a more modern society, tribal organisation and tribal institutions, which have divided the Baluch, are losing their hold on tribesmen. The modern political organisations, modernity and industrialisation eroded tribalism and have reinforced nationalism and devotions to one’s nation. The popular appeal to national liberation has been removing the internal tribal barriers. The ancient Baluch, culture, history, traditions and myth will be recognised for what they were and consigned to history.

The Baluch struggle for national liberation is a legitimate and rational struggle for the world political system. The Baluch appeal to the independent state has its advantage of providing straightforward demarcation for nation to be called the Baluch that can resolve the chronic problem of south and central Asia.

 A secular democratic independent Baluchistan can help the world in controlling out of controlled Shiite fundamentalist Iran and Pakistan’s Sunni Jihadi aggression that have undermined the world national states system.

The Baluch struggle for national liberation is a rational and inclusive struggle; it has mobilising capacity and popular support among the Baluch masses.  The current Baluch struggle has largely abandoned tribal (who did not share easily with anyone) attitudes.

The Baluch struggle based its objective on critical discourse and appeal to principle of sovereignty, rule of law, one man one vote, genders equality and inalienable right to worship any god one pleased and cultural diversity.

The leaderships have to make use of notions of rights, equalities to all citizens that are applicable to all strata of the Baluchistan population. Tribal attitudes among some political parties and individuals within the Baluch struggle have segmented the Baluch struggle for national liberation and confined the struggle to the tribal dominations and that disillusioned some activists and intellectuals. 

The appeal to the Baluch national liberation is strong and popular among the all Baluch strata and principle of liberty is solid enough to mobilise all layer of the Baluch society in Baluchistan.  The detribalised and multi-class Baluch have no interests in the historical tribal subordination and a modern progressive Baluch only respond to the notion of the Baluch nation sovereignty over the Baluch land that governed by a modern institutions and elected representatives. To achieve the Independence all Baluch should have the liberation of Baluchistan in common.
