QUETTA, November 13: Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti has commended security forces and law enforcement agencies for their intelligence-based operations against militant elements in the province, describing their efforts as vital to eliminating terrorism and establishing lasting peace.
In a statement, the chief minister said intelligence-led operations had targeted several militant hideouts, while weapons, ammunition and explosive materials were also recovered during the actions.
He said efforts to undermine Pakistan’s peace and national security would not succeed, adding that security forces and law enforcement agencies remained committed to countering threats and maintaining stability.
Bugti said counterterrorism efforts under the National Action Plan and the federal Apex Committee-approved vision of Azm-e-Istehkam formed part of a coordinated national strategy.
He emphasised the importance of cooperation and effective coordination among state institutions, reiterating that operations against militant elements would continue until terrorism was eliminated and lasting peace established.
