Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfaraz Bugti and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi visited the trauma centre of the Civil Hospital in Quetta and enquired after the people who were wounded in a suicide bombing at the Quetta Railway Station on Saturday morning.

On this occasion, Balochistan Health Minister Bakht Mohammad Kakar and the trauma centre managing director gave a briefing to the chief minister and the interior minister. They asked the relatives of the wounded people about the quality of the medical treatment they were being provided and directed the health authorities to provide best health care facilities to the injured.

Earlier, Naqvi arrived at the Balochistan Chief Minister’s House in Quetta where he attended a high-level meeting on the law and order situation in the province.

The development came hours after a suicide bomber blew himself up at the Quetta Railway Station on Saturday morning, killing at least 26 people and wounding several others.

At the meeting, Naqvi prayed for the people who lost their lives in the suicide bombing and offered his condolences to the families of the people who were martyred or wounded in the Quetta tragedy.

Naqvi said the situation in Pakistan is not normal; the country is in a war-like situation, but we will end this wave of terrorism. He said that terrorism can be fought only with unity. He said that 4-5 terrorists were arrested in a single week. He said the federal government stands by the Balochistan government in any such situation.

Speaking at the meeting, Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfaraz Bugti questioned silence of the rights group at the Quetta suicide bombing. He said that terrorists did not represent any nation or ethnic group and they would be eliminated at any cost.
