Former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, currently imprisoned, has lashed out against what he terms an 'illegitimate government' in Balochistan. He drew parallels to historical divisions, urging not to repeat past mistakes.

Through his social media post, Khan highlighted the alarming rise in terrorism and criticized state actions against peaceful protesters and unlawful arrests. He implored for genuine public representation, arguing that force alone would only escalate instability.

The PTI leader also critiqued the Shehbaz Sharif administration's lack of diplomatic engagements with Afghanistan, stressing past dialogue's success in curbing terrorism. Khan accused the military-backed regime of focusing more on his continued imprisonment rather than resolving constitutional duties, as violence in Balochistan persists.
