As a result, Balochistan was cut off from Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab. Transport owners and people faced difficulties.
According to the details, a series of protests and sit-ins by political parties and candidates including Balochistan National Party, Hazara Democratic Party, Pashtunkhwa Milli Awami Party, and National Party against alleged rigging in the general elections continued outside the offices of the commissioner and deputy commissioner office in the provincial capital on the tenth day.
On the other hand, on the appeal of the four-party alliance, workers of political parties blocked the national highways of Balochistan, including Quetta.
Due to the strike, the Pakistan-Iran border trade has also been severely affected. The RCD highway connecting Pakistan with Iran is blocked at many places.

The central leader of Balochistan National Party Lal Jan Baloch Safar Khan Mengal and Abdul Wahab Gholmani of National Party said that the recent elections were the “worst selection.”
