He emphasized that the development and prosperity of Balochistan can only be achieved through peaceful, democratic, and constitutional struggle rather than through violence.

He encouraged the youth of Balochistan to participate in democratic and political processes and pursue their rights through peaceful means, stating that constructive engagement is the most effective path toward progress and development in the province.
