In an Open Letter to Lok Sabha Speaker, a Prominent Baloch Leader Expresses Moral Support for India’s Anti-Terror Operation; Calls for a Strategic Push for Balochistan’s Independence from Pakistan
New Delhi: As Operation Sindoor was being debated in Parliament on Monday, Mir Yar, a prominent leader of the Baloch freedom movement, wrote an open letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, urging India to formally raise the issue of Balochistan in Parliament. He expressed unconditional moral support for India's military operation and described it as a just response to Pakistan-sponsored terrorism.
Letters Sent to PM Modi and Top Ministers
Mir Yar has also addressed similar letters to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and Home Minister Amit Shah, hailing India's unity and resolve against cross-border terrorism.
“The 60 million Baloch people appreciate the unwavering unity of the Indian people and the principled stand of the Indian government. We also salute the patriotic opposition for backing the armed forces, and the Indian media for countering Pakistan’s military and psychological warfare,”
said Mir Yar in the letter, which was made public on Monday.
Call to Support Baloch Independence
Mir Yar stressed that Pakistani military atrocities are intensifying in Balochistan as a reaction to the symbolic support shown by Baloch leaders toward India during Operation Sindoor. He asserted that the time has come for India to show solidarity with the Baloch freedom struggle.
“Balochistan looks to India as a beacon of hope and justice. Supporting Baloch independence is not just strategic but a moral imperative.”
He urged, calling on New Delhi to consider formal backing for Balochistan's freedom.
He argued that a free Balochistan would effectively cut off Pakistan’s access to the Arabian Sea via Gwadar Port and significantly weaken the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) — a strategic lifeline for Islamabad and Beijing.
Hinglaj Mata Temple as Cultural Link
Mir Yar also invoked shared civilisational values, referring to the Hinglaj Mata Temple in Balochistan, one of the oldest Hindu pilgrimage sites.
“Hinglaj Mata is not just a temple — it is a symbol of our shared heritage. India must stand with us in the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.”
wrote Mir Yar, reinforcing cultural and civilizational bonds between India and Balochistan.
