In an X post on May 9, Mir Yar Baloch wrote, “A possible announcement soon should be done as the collapse of the terrorist Pakistan is near. We have claimed our independence and we request India to allow Balochistan’s official office, and embassy in Delhi.”
He also urged support from the United Nations to recognise it and call a meeting of the UN members.
“We also ask the United Nations to recognise the independence of the Democratic Republic of Balochistan and call a meeting of all UN members to lend your support for recognition. There must be a release of billions of funds for currency, and passport printing.
A day later, Mir Yar Baloch shared photos of locals standing with banners depicting India and Baloch friendship, and wrote, “The people of the Democratic Republic of Balochistan come to show their full support to the people of Bharat. China is helping Pakistan, but Balochistan and it’s people are the government of Bharat.”
“Dear Narendra Modi ji you are not alone, you have the backing of 60 million Baloch patriots,” his X post read.
In the recent, Baloch, in an X post, wrote, “Breaking News: 14 May 2025 Balochistan fully supports the India decision of asking Pakistan to vacate PoK. The international community must urge Pakistan to immediately leave PoK to avoid another humiliation of surrender on its 93000 army personnel in Dhaka.”
“India is capable of defeating Pakistan army and if Pakistan didn’t pay any heed then the only Pakistani greedy army generals must be held responsible for bloodshed because Islamabad is using PoK people as human shields,” he wrote.
