Balochistan MPs term govt dialogue offer eyewash

QUETTA: The opposition members of Balochistan Assembly, who have been present at a police station here for the 7th straight day to court arrest, Sunday termed the government’s dialogue offer a bluff. The opposition members are still at the Bijli Ghar police station to court arrest following registration of an FIR against them for creating obstruction and resorting to violence to stop the presentation of the provincial budget on June 18.

Opposition Leader in the Balochistan Assembly Sana Baloch said the government’s dialogue team had no mandate. He said the team had assured them that the provincial government would withdraw FIR against the opposition members but still no action had been taken.
