BLA demands separate country
The Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) is an armed separatist organization demanding the creation of a separate country for the Balochistan province of Pakistan. It started around 2000.
Balochistan is the largest province of Pakistan. There are large reserves of minerals like natural gas, copper, gold and coal. Despite this, it is included in the most backward areas of Pakistan.
BLA alleges that the Pakistan government uses the natural resources of Balochistan, but does not give their fair share to the people there. The organization also accuses the Pakistan government of political discrimination and violating the rights of the Baloch people.
BLA also opposes the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and its related projects. He alleges that through these projects, external forces are benefiting from the resources of Balochistan instead of the local people.
