GWADAR: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday said that he was considering to talk to insurgents in Balochistan to settle old disputes.

Speaking to the Gwadar business community in his official visit to Gwadar, the prime minister said that he was thinking of resolving issues with insurgents in Balochistan by talking to them since there are possibilities of past injustices they were the victims of.

He said no rulers, federal or local, in the past have dealt with Baloch people fairly and thus deprivation of basic rights prompted despair and resistance amongst citizens there who may have been played into Indian and enemy hands.

Nawaz Sharif in his entire premiership tenure went on international trips 24 times, but he hardly ever visited Balochistan.

Asif Ali Zardari, similarly, embarked on over 50 such trips but he never had the time to visit Gwadar, he said.
