Magsi says nationalists no danger to federation QUETTA: The separatists in Balochistan are not in any position to endanger the federation of Pakistan, as their activities are confined to political rhetoric, Balochistan Governor Zulfiqar Ali Magsi said on Tuesday. He told the media only a small percentage of the population of the province wanted independence. The remaining population are patriots who only want ownership of their resources, equal opportunities and equitable representation in the federation. He said past problems had resulted from the centre refusing to consider the suggestions forwarded by the provincial government. Responding to questions about the financial health of the province, he said Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani had directed the provincial government to contact the Finance Division for aid. staff report
