New Delhi:Many days After PM Narendra Modi spoke about the atrocities being carried out on the people of Balochistan and PoK(Pakistan-occuppied-Kashmir), Pakistan has taken the initiative to invite self-exiled Baloch leader for talks while stating the Dialogue is the only way to find a permanent solution to these issues.

The remarks were extended at the National Flag hoisting ceremony at the Quaid-i-Azam residency in Ziarat, Balochistan, on the occassion of 70th Independence Day celebrations of Pakistan on Sunday.

Balochistan CM Zehri also invited the self exiled Baloch leaders to come back to Pakistan. "It will be their choice to join national politics or do politics on a nationalists basis...We will honour it if the people of Balochistan give you the mandate", The Dawn reported him as saying. He also made clear that it wouldnt be possible for the govt to accept such leaders. "We will not allow anybody to impose his ideology by force...We have been custodians of Balochistan for the last 500 years and became part of Pakistan at our own will" he added.

People of Balochistan, GilGit, Baltistan and PoK have thanked me a lot in the past few days. I am grateful to them," He said the way people from these Pakistani regions "wished me well, gives me great joy".

In thanking an Indian Prime Minister, "they have thanked the whole population of my country", he said.
