Mr. Anas Abdullah highlighted what need to be done to address the grievances of the Baloch populace emphasizing the need to bridge the gaps between the Baloch youth and those of other provinces. Discussing the work of Voice of Balochistan, an independent body that works with the government of Balochistan and the CSCR, he highlighted its focus on exposure visits of the Baloch youth to major cities of Pakistan, an effort which has brought about tangible positive shifts in Baloch perceptions; he argued that other provincial governments ought to do the same, ato help address g misperceptions on both sides. He also pointed out how only a small percentage of the budget allotted to previous Balochistan governments was actually used, linking it to the poor socio-economic, health and education indicators of the province.
