Why is Balochistan celebrating Independence Day while still being part of Pakistan? And how did this resource-rich region become a part of Pakistan in the first place?
In this video, Abhi and Niyu explain the history of Balochistan—from the Khanate of Kalat and the 1948 accession to Pakistan, to the repeated Baloch insurgencies and the ongoing demand for independence.
We also explore why Balochistan matters to China, Pakistan and other global powers, from Gwadar and CPEC to its vast reserves of copper, gold and other critical minerals. So why has the international community remained largely silent?
Watch till the end to understand the history, geopolitics and unanswered questions behind Balochistan's independence movement.
