Whispers of the Hills (Part- 01) The road to the hills was winding, narrow, and flanked by tall pine trees that reached for the sky like ancient sentinels. I had been planning this solo trip for months, craving an escape from the noise of city life.

A Silent Province, A Wounded Heart: The Crisis of Balochistan and the State's Responsibility
Introduction In the southwest corner of Pakistan lies Balochistan, the largest yet most neglected province of the country. Spread over nearly 44% of the national territory, its deserts, mountains, and coastlines hold not just natural resources but stories of pain, deprivation, resistance, and resilience. From Quetta to Gwadar, from Khuzdar to Turbat, the air is thick with silent screams — of mothers who have lost sons, of families without water and electricity, and of soldiers fighting in the shadows of a long-festering conflict. While the rest of the country debates politics and progress, Balochistan remains caught in a cycle of conflict, underdevelopment, and mistrust. This article is an attempt to explore the reality on the ground — the people’s suffering, the state’s failures, the burden on security institutions, and the lingering hope for a better tomorrow.
