Soomro names Mengal for new President

“I don’t think that any option is left for our rulers except to grant autonomy to the provinces”, he added.

Soomro argued that electing president from Balochistan would not only strengthen the federation but also foiled all conspiracies being hatched against the country.

He added that in present circumstances, Ataullah Mengal is the best choice for the slot of President, who would not only bring Baloch people into mainstream politics but also prove useful in dealing with religious fanaticism in the country.

He dispelled the impression that he, along with Ghulam Mustafa Jatoi and Hussain Haroon, had held a meeting with Ataullah Mengal to convey any message from power brokers to convince him for accepting the slot of next President of Pakistan.
