He said that this is the province where Baloch, Pashtun and other ethnic groups are themselves. Geographically, it is the largest province of Pakistan but also the smallest province in terms of population, despite lack of basic facilities. Is.
He said that this province was lagging far behind in terms of development. If gas came out of Sui, the whole of Pakistan would benefit but the people living here are deprived. So far, it's like salt in flour.
Shahbaz Sharif said that the province is rich in natural resources. We have not been able to take full advantage of the potential of this province.
He said that we could not take advantage of the blessings bestowed on this province by Allah and could not reach other provinces but the projects are in legal issues and billions of rupees have been wasted in lawyers and others while it took many years and Our collective vision failed, failed in our collective performance.

Abandon and say that in the part of Balochistan where basic facilities are lacking, where there is injustice, no roads, development is absolutely missing, there are no signs of prosperity far away, even in the part of Balochistan where they are in the south. So Bismillah will go ahead and solve these problems, they are the northern region, so Bismillah will go ahead and solve them, but the basis of this is that where the path of development and the journey has stopped, there will be all their strength and collective. Insights and resources are thrown there.
"I have talked to Zama, briefed him on law and order, met on development projects and talked to members of the assembly, and he spoke openly on the issues of Balochistan, development work and prosperity," he said. The issues are very important but we have other issues which are not present in other provinces.

Even if we pour out streams of milk and honey.
