Talking to newsmen here at Prime Minister House, he said, "There is no threat to Pakistan, no danger to Pakistan as it is a stable and strong country."

The Prime Minister said Pakistan is a responsible state and an important member of the international community.

Replying to a question on Balochistan issue, the Prime Minister said a committee has been constituted to contact political leadership of the country to convene All Parties Conference on the issue.

Gilani said he will meet with the Governor and Chief Minister of Balochistan very soon to consult with them to engage all the stakeholders in the consultations for the improvement in Balochistan.

He said the government has already initiated "Aghaz-e-Haqqoq- e-Balochistan" which is a first step to ensure the rights of the people.

He said its a small step but the government is committed to ensure the basic rights and privileges to the people living in Balochistan.

He said, "It is our responsibility as the federal government and his responsibility as prime minister of the country to resolve the grievances of the people of Balochistan as they are very much committed to integrity, solidarity, progress and prosperity of the country."

The Balochis, he said, sacrificed for Pakistan and loyal to the country as much as the people from other parts of the country.

About the resolution in the United States House of Representatives on Balochistan, he said, it has already been clarified by the US government that it has nothing to do with the government policy.

Replying to a question about the joint session of the parliament to finalise the new strategy on Pak-US relations and to revive the NATO supply routes, the Prime Minister said it will be held after the completion of the Senate elections which are scheduled on March 2.

He explained that the government decided to hold joint session of the parliament after the Senate elections to discuss this important issue so that the new senators could be involved in the decision making on this important subject.
