The National Party (NP) has said the final nod to Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F)’s call for participating in anti-government march would be given after the meeting of all parties conference (APC).Addressing party workers in Hub on Tuesday, NP President Dr Abdul Malik Baloch and senior party leader Hasil Bizenjo said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-led government “should not be allowed” to rule the country because of “dishonouring” of parliament and its “flawed policies,” which have “ruined the economy”.They alleged that the incumbent prime minister has commenced political victimisation of opposition leaders and was getting them behind bars through the accountability watchdog in “fake corruption cases”.On JUI-F’s Azadi march, they said the NP supports Fazl’s demands but the final decision on participating in the movement would be taken after the APC.They slammed the government for its “intervention” in provincial affairs through constituting a new institution named National Coastal Development Authority.The provincial government did not show any resistance against the NCDA, they alleged and said it would deprive the province of its coastal strip.The NP would never allow the federal government to “exploit Balochistan’s rights,” they said.Urging the workers to promote the party, they stressed the need for making efforts to functionalise the party across the province.Published in The Express Tribune, October 10, 2019.
