Negotiations Between Government and Akhtar Mengal Conclude Without Breakthrough

Negotiations between the government and BNP-M led by Akhtar Mengal ended without success. Mengal insisted protests will continue until all missing persons are released. The government delegation has returned to Quetta after the inconclusive meeting in Lakpass.

The recent negotiations between the government delegation and the leadership of the Balochistan National Party-Mengal (BNP-M) under Akhtar Mengal concluded without any significant progress. The meeting took place in Lakpass, involving government representatives Zahoor Ahmed Buledi, Bakht Muhammad Kakar, and Sardar Noor Ahmed Bangulzai, who aimed to persuade Mengal to terminate the ongoing sit-in protests.

Despite the discussions, Akhtar Mengal remained firm in his stance, asserting that protests would persist until all missing individuals are released. Following the inconclusive talks, the government delegation has returned to Quetta where further assessments and strategies may be considered to address the ongoing tensions.

The situation remains unresolved, highlighting the complexities surrounding the issue of missing persons in Balochistan and the demands of the BNP-M leadership.

In conclusion, the failure of negotiations between the government delegation and Akhtar Mengal signifies ongoing challenges in addressing the issue of missing persons in Balochistan. The steadfastness of Mengal indicates that protests will likely continue until satisfactory resolutions are achieved. The government’s next steps will be critical in determining the future of this dialogue and the associated tensions in the region.
