3 days mourning in Balochistan
The Chief Minister of Balochistan has announced 3 days of mourning in the entire province. Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan or TTP, a terrorist organization active in Balochistan, has said that they are not behind this blast. He has condemned this attack. Our objective is clear we do not target mosques and public gatherings.
Actually, the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA) rules Balochistan. This organization is demanding independence from Pakistan. The citizens of Balochistan do not consider themselves a part of Pakistan from 1947-1948. Despite this, this province somehow remained present on the map of Pakistan. They were considered second-class citizens. Like Punjab, Sindh, or Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, they never got their just rights. As time passed, his anger also increased.
Pakistan PM, President condemned the attack
Pakistan’s caretaker Prime Minister Anwar-ul-Haq Kakar has also condemned the attack near the mosque. Kakar has expressed condolences to the families of those who died. He has also ordered the officials to provide all possible help to the injured. President Arif Alvi has expressed grief.
4 soldiers were killed in a TTP attack yesterday
On September 28, there was a clash between Pakistani soldiers and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) terrorists. Today the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) issued a statement saying that 4 soldiers were killed in the clash. The terrorists were trying to infiltrate into Pakistan from Afghanistan.
Terror increased in Pakistan after the Taliban came to power in Afghanistan
Since the Taliban came to power in Afghanistan, the terrorist organization TTP has gained strength in Pakistan. Of all the terrorist organizations that exist in Pakistan, which is called the factory of terrorism, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan is considered to be the most dangerous. This organization had taken responsibility for the attack on Malala Yousafzai. He was the one who attacked the Sainik School in Peshawar and killed 114 children.
In fact, the roots of the Pakistani Taliban had started to be established at the same time, when many terrorists who fled from Afghanistan after the American action in 2002, were hiding in the tribal areas of Pakistan. When action started against these terrorists, opposition to the Pakistani Army started in Swat Valley. Many rebel groups started growing in tribal areas. In such a situation, in December 2007, 13 groups under the leadership of Betullah Mehsud decided to join a Tehreek i.e. campaign, hence the organization was named Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan. In short, it is also called TTP or Pakistani Taliban. It is different from the Taliban organization of Afghanistan, but the intentions are almost the same. Both organizations want to implement Sharia law.
