PM Imran said previous governments did not pay due attention to Balochistan and always preferred to form alliance with the local chieftains, who became the biggest hurdle in transferring development funds to the grassroots level.
The prime minister said PTI government has focused the socio-economic development of Balochistan to uplift the common citizens of the province who are facing extreme poverty.
He said Pakistan is passing through a defining moment and the social media has a great role in setting new standard of morality by exposing the plunderers.
