Mir Zahoor Buledi, Haq Do Tehreek leader Maulana Hidayatur Rehman, MPA Ali Madad Jattak, Senator Kauda Babar, Mir Ubaidullah Gorgage and other leaders were also present on the occasion.<\/p>\n

Talking to the media after visiting flood-affected areas, the chief minister said hundreds of houses were damaged due to torrential rains and floods.<\/p>\n

He said the provincial government would not leave the affected people alone at such a critical time and would provide all possible help to them.<\/p>\n

Pakistan Army, PDMA, local administration and other institutions have taken immediate measures by utilising all their resources to help the displaced population, CM Bugti claimed.<\/p>\n

The chief minister added that the provincial government was making all-out efforts and mobilised its resources to rehabilitate the flood-affected people.<\/p>\n

\u201cMeasures are being taken on an emergency basis to drain out rainwater from and restore normal life in the flood-hit areas,\u201d Mr Bugti told reporters.<\/p>\n

The chief minister also presided over a high-level meeting and reviewed the overall situation created due to heavy rains and flooding.<\/p>\n

The officials briefed the meeting about the measures taken so far. The chief minister directed the local administration to continue the rescue and rehabilitation of the flood-affected people.<\/p>\n

Makran Division Commissioner Saeed Ahmed Umrani, Kech Deputy Commissioner Aurangzeb Badini and other officials told the meeting that Gwadar received around 187mm of rainfall.<\/p>\n

They said that the affected families, including women and children, were immediately shifted to safe places and were provided all necessary assistance, including food items.<\/p>\n

Bugti visits Quaid\u2019s mausoleum<\/strong><\/p>\n

The chief minister also arrived in Karachi on Sunday and offered fateha at Quaid-i-Azam\u2019s mausoleum.<\/p>\n

While talking to the media, he said improving law and order and restoring peace in his province would be the biggest challenge.<\/p>\n

\u201cLaw and order and peace is a real challenge for me and my party in Balochistan,\u201d he said, adding his party\u2019s leader, Mr Bhutto-Zardari, was also concerned about peace in Balochistan and wanted stability there.<\/p>\n

The chief minister also announced a \u201cgeneral pardon\u201d for armed groups and appealed to them to become part of the mainstream to claim their rights.<\/p>\n

He criticised JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman for levelling allegations of electoral rigging in Balochistan. \u201cI strongly condemn such allegations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said the JUI-F chief and his party hardly managed to win<\/a> seven to eight seats from Balochistan in the past.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn these elections, he [Mr Rehman] has even lost his hometown seat in D.I.Khan. It\u2019s not about rigging but performance,\u201d he said, adding that JUI-F losses \u201call across Pakistan\u201d were due to its performance, not alone in Balochistan.<\/p>\n
