He termed Mr Zardari\u2019s victory a result of his vision, bringing the 18th Amendment, introducing Aghaz-i-Haqooq Balo\u00adchistan and his struggle for the development of the province.<\/p>\n
He said he believed Mr Zardari would continue to struggle for the rights of Balochistan just as he did before.<\/p>\n
\nBugti says Zardari will continue to strive for the province\u2019s rights as president<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Mr Bugti added the PPP was grateful to allies, including the National Party and independent candidates, in Balochistan for supporting Mr Zardari in the presidential election. He said PPP, particularly Mr Zardari, had always kept Balochistan close to their hearts.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe way they provided jobs to youth in the province through the 18th Amendment, allocated funds for its uplift and initiated the movement to ensure the provision of rights to the people of Baloc\u00adhistan integrated the province\u2019s youth into the mainstream,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe hope the PPP will once again unite all the federating units and make Pakistan even stronger.\u201d<\/p>\n
The chief minister disclosed that President-elect Zardari would soon visit Balochistan and all the issues would be discussed with him then.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will become a strong unit to represent the voice of Balochistan\u2019s people and resolve all issues with sincerity,\u201d the CM added.<\/p>\n
Responding to a question, Mr Bugti said the PPP raised the slogan of \u2018khappay<\/em>\u2019 after the martyrdom of Benazir Bhutto.<\/p>\n\u201cWhenever Paki\u00adstan needs to be saved, the PPP will play a leading role,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom day one, he said, he had been pointing out governance, security situation and climate change as the three major challenges in Balochistan.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said a series of dialogues with allies and non-allies on different issues of Balochistan had been going on for the past two weeks, which had proved that the PPP had the capacity and will to take everyone along.<\/p>\n
