Developments can enlarge the Prosperity of Baluchistan

Baluchistan is the largest province in terms of the area that is about 347,190 km2. Strategically Baluchistan shares its borders with Punjab and KPK in its northeast, connects with Sindh at the southeast, and touches with the Arabian Sea in the south and Iran in the west whereas Afghanistan lies in the northwest of the province. The resourcefully rich Baluchistan has the capacity to provide natural gas to the country. Quetta is the largest city and provincial capital of Baluchistan. Turbat is known to be the second-largest city in the province. The name Baluchistan means “the land of Baloch” and it has mainly two ethnic groups Baloch and Pashtuns.

Baluchistan has an area, natural resources, human resources, and tourist spots but it lacks developments. Though it is the largest but has a few educational institutes, the population is above than 12, 344,408 but deprived of health facilities, capabilities are there but unknown, potentials are high yet no employment and government is there but not concerned. It is in the top rank having the lowest literacy rate especially in the case of women, far behind in employment ratio and rural in terms of developments.

And Pakistan is entering into 74th of its independence anniversary yet Baluchistan is not up to the mark. All the chronic problems of the province can have one solution which is construction and developments. If the other provinces of Pakistan are at the pace of development then why not Baluchistan. No doubt CPEC is going to develop Gwadar but Baluchistan is comprised of many Gwadar which also need economic expedition. If a city in Punjab can be among the developed cities then why not the areas of Baluchistan. There is no second argument with this statement that developments lead to prosperity. This is no shortcut to prosperity other than developments and prosperity.

It is evident from history as well that urbanization has been changing the statuses of areas from rural to cities. And cities have been the hub of opportunities with the availability of all the facilities. Now the world has turned into a global village and the advancements are remarkable in it. Yet Baluchistan is deprived of many of the advancements. The people lack awareness about things and they have a world that can never compete with this world.

There should be a rapid action plan to uplift the status of Baluchistan so that the people would be exposed to the outer world in their land. Industrial installation can be a fortune for the province of Baluchistan. That would lead to more and more developments and prosperity and can bring awareness to the people so that they would be able to change their lifestyle. Urbanization of Baluchistan can bring good fortune to the whole nation because it has many resources which can be used for other developments and can also export coal and many other minerals. Developed Baluchistan would be a keen place for the tourist which would again generate the revenue of Pakistan and also create hundreds of opportunities for the local people.

There should be cities like Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, and many others in Baluchistan province so that the land would be beneficial to its natives and to all.

Pakistan has achieved another proud milestone in its space journey with the successful launch of the PRSE-EO2 satellite into orbit. This achievement reflects Pakistan’s growing strength in science, technology, and national capability, proving that the country is steadily advancing in modern space development.

The PRSE-EO2 satellite is designed to support Pakistan in multiple critical areas, including earth observation, mapping, environmental monitoring, and national development planning. With this satellite in space, Pakistan will be able to improve its ability to collect accurate data for agriculture, water management, urban planning, disaster monitoring, and climate-related challenges.

This success is a strong reminder that space technology is no longer a luxury—it is a necessity for nations that want to grow in the modern world. Satellites play an important role in helping countries manage their resources, respond to natural disasters, and strengthen national security through better monitoring and planning.

The successful launch of PRSE-EO2 also sends a positive message to Pakistan’s youth. It shows that Pakistan has the talent and potential to compete in advanced fields such as aerospace engineering, satellite technology, and artificial intelligence-driven systems. Such achievements inspire young minds to pursue careers in science and innovation, strengthening the country’s future.

Pakistan’s progress in space technology is not only a matter of national pride but also a strategic step toward long-term development. As the world becomes more data-driven, satellite-based information will be a powerful tool for smarter governance and faster progress.

The launch of PRSE-EO2 proves one clear reality: Pakistan is not standing still. Pakistan is moving forward. And with each successful mission, the nation strengthens its position as a country capable of innovation, modern research, and high-tech achievement.

This moment is a victory for Pakistan’s scientists, engineers, and institutions—and a hopeful sign for the future of a stronger, smarter, and more advanced Pakistan.

Kashmir Day: A Voice for Dignity, Peace, and Justice

Published

By

Every year on 5th February, Pakistan observes Kashmir Day to express solidarity with the people of Jammu and Kashmir. For many, it is a national tradition. But for those who understand the human reality behind the issue, it is far more than that. Kashmir Day is a reminder that millions of people still live with uncertainty, restrictions, and a future that remains unresolved.

As AikQaum, we believe Kashmir is not simply a political dispute. It is a human story. Behind every news report are families, children, students, and ordinary people who want what every human being wants: safety, dignity, and a peaceful life. Kashmir Day matters because silence does not reduce suffering. When the world stops speaking about Kashmir, the pain does not disappear—it only becomes less visible.

For Pakistan, Kashmir is an emotional and moral responsibility. It is tied to shared history, shared identity, and a deep sense of connection. But this responsibility must be carried with wisdom. Support for Kashmir should not be expressed through hatred or extreme language. It should be expressed through dignity, truth, and consistent advocacy based on human rights and international principles.

In today’s world, the Kashmir issue is also a battle of narratives. Misinformation spreads quickly, and emotional reactions often replace facts. This is where Pakistan’s youth have a powerful role. Young Pakistanis can support Kashmir by sharing verified information, raising awareness responsibly, and keeping the conversation alive in a way that the world can respect. A cause becomes stronger when it is represented with discipline and humanity.

Kashmir Day also reminds Pakistan of the importance of unity. A divided nation cannot carry a moral cause effectively. If Pakistan wants the world to listen, Pakistan must first stand together. Unity is not only a national value—it is a strategic necessity.

To the people of Kashmir, AikQaum’s message is clear: you are not forgotten. Your voices matter. Your courage is respected. Your future is important. Pakistan’s solidarity is not limited to one day; it is a long-term commitment rooted in conscience and shared humanity.

Kashmir Day is ultimately a day of conscience. It is a reminder that justice must be pursued with patience, wisdom, and peace. At AikQaum, we stand with Kashmir—firmly, respectfully, and with the belief that no people should remain unheard forever.
