Salam Buledi
Tehsil Buleda of District Kech is troubled by political and social conundrums like the other parts of Balochistan. Recently it has emerged as the hallmark of political and social disturbance.
Many meager political lip-services against perpetrators have been heard, but I saw some serious schools of thought with various reasons and theories being put forward behind these untoward conundrums which deserve desperate considerations.
I am a bit chary while writing this article that it might pose some security risks; however, come what may, I will write for the sake of long-term peace and prosperity. There are numerous pressing reasons, whys and the forces of evil behind the chaotic state of Buleda. I will bring those all in the limelight one by one which have dire consequences for local people.
As a result of my observations, I made. Firstly, I came to know that the one-sidedness of the chattering class of our society is one of the main reasons behind the precarious situations. They are engaged in promoting, convincing and educating a particular class of children in the arena of scientific education and they are aged 7 to 16.
On the other hand the remaining class which certainly triple the number compared to the particular class is on the verge of religious radicalism. The religious brain-washing institutions have increased in the region, and in these seminaries the remaining class of children are taught and preached the sandwich course of Jihad and extremism.
Inequalities and unavailability of opportunities and the greed of free religious education have paved them the way to seminaries where their little brains are infused with religious extremism. I foresee that the chattering class of our society would be the very first subject to the religious radicalism in the hands of the remaining class. Still it is not too late, bring them into schools, language centers and in the frontline and rid them of religious fanaticism or otherwise wait for the appalling out-turns.
The increasing challenge of drug trafficking is the second most dreadful reason behind the unfavorable situations in Buleda. An anonymous graduated resident from Bit agreed to make some comments on this endemic pestilence, but on the condition that his name would not be made public. After assuring him that his name would be kept in secrecy, so he made to comment- “the region is sinking into an abyss of hard drugs, and the youth is directly being victimized by the drug addictions. For the fulfillment of their narcotic needs they are mostly involved in burglaries, robberies and vehicle-jacking”.
I feel pity on the situations prevailing in Buleda; the drug-peddlers are direct threats to the common masses. No one feels him/herself secure under such nasty atmosphere being blown by the calmness and inactiveness of local representatives of region. Many respectable residents claim that these drug dealers are directly being sponsored by the government.
I found heroin, cocaine, opium, morphine and many other hard drugs in easy access to the people of region on one side and the religious seminaries where the lessons of jihad and intolerance are being preached on the other side. Shockingly the both dark sides of conundrums are taking place under the umbrella of government, rather than giving them security protocol and safe sanctuaries. They should have got them jailed and banned. To counter and eliminate these nefarious practices the local representatives should have to maintain close collaborations on all matters of mutual understanding with the local people of region.
