Should Quetta be the capital of Pakistan?

[Saadbaloch]

Shifting Capital from Karachi to Islamabad and then to Quetta isnt a wise thing to do, the wise steps would be to build atleast 2 or 3 New industrial cities in Balochistan One Gwadar , Chaman and Khuzdar which will give a sense of ownership to every one in Balochistn

آپکی بات سے میں انکار نہیں کرتا کہ پاکستان کے وہ حصے جہاں محرومی ہے وہاں انڈسٹریل ایریا بنائے جائیں- لیکن انڈسٹریل ایریا سے سارے مسائل حل نہیں ہوتے- پاکستان میں بہت بڑا فرق مختلف کلچر کا بھی ہے- پاکستانیوں کو ایک مظبوط قوم بنانے کے لئے پاکستان کےعوام کی سوچ ،ذہین اور کلچر میں ہم آہنگی پیدہ کرنے کے لئے بھی بہت سےپراجکٹ ایسے ہونے چاہئے جس سے آپس میں اختلافات ختم ہوجائیں- دارالخلافہ میں ہر ایک قوم کے نمائیندے ہوتے ہیں جس کی وجہ سے اس علاقے میں بہت سی اچھی تبدیلیاں رونما ہوجاتی ہیں- اور کوئٹہ کی وجہ سے افغانستان کے قریبی علاقوں میں بھی بہت سی تبدیلیاں رونما ہوگی جن کی وجہ سے ملک میں استحکام اور ہم آہنگی پیدہ ہوگی​

I am from Quetta and I agree with the option,It was an optioin before in 1950 but Ayub khan was from Rehana Haripur so he decided in favour of Islamabad.

15% tak baat lay aye hain, ab 50%-60% tak raye lay ker jaana zyada dur ki baat nahi hogi

woh log, joh geography say aur bil khasus capital ki ehmiyat say waaqif nahi, woh hi yeh baat ker rahay hain ya ker saktay hain kay Quetta ko capital nahi hona chahiye hai!

ehsaas e mehrumi, iran, baluchistan kay wasail aur gwadar bhi nihayat hi zuroori points hain jo aapko bhi uthanay chahiye hain

i hv seen in the early days of gawadar project tht even the drivers were hired from the punjab ,so let me tell u my dear unfortunately shifting capital will be seen as way to capturing resources of Baluchistan by establishment, u want to see happy Pakistan give 100% provincial autonomy and local govt system, then no one will point out towards my punjab, still because of dumb ayub khan thr is a sense of deprivation in Karachi tht why the hell federal capital was shifted from khi to islamabad. Karachi was selected by Quaid-e-Azam as the capital , who gave the right to ayub khan to change it n now the punjabis hv to face the blame.

jab tak subo kae wasael per pehla haq us soobae ko nahi milega us waqt tak ham aapas mae lertae rahaegae,sirf ik choti si misal do ga k balochistan sui sae gas nikli aur wo porae pakistan mae pheli hatta kae muree tak pohanch gae but kia zulum hae k wahi gas baluchistan kae buhat sae zilo mae aaj bhi nahi pohchi!

Brother, thanks for proving that Punjabis don't hate other communities of Pakistan and respect them all equally.

Unfortunately, other communities feel discriminated against when they see Hasb-e-haal, Khabarnaak and other music videos being played on mainstream channels that are only in Punjabi. Most TV shows also have Punjabi references.

I can feel the pain of our Pashtun and Baloch brethren who are in the majority in Pakistan with about 40% population combined when they see a mainstream show (only in name) but that only caters to the needs of a regional population.

Aur aapka point Gwadar per jo hai ghalat is liye hai kyunkay port kabhi bhi Capital nahi banatay.

America ka port New York hai laikin capital Washington.

Turkey ka port Istanbul hai laikin capital Ankara.

Humain bhi yeh hi kerna chahiye hai aur ooper aik sahab nai zikr kiya Afghanistan ka to main bhi yeh hi kehna chah raha tha. Baluchistan borders Iran, Central Asia and Afghanistan. For trade-relations, it is far more important and safe than Islamabad.

When Ayub chose Islamabad, it wasn't only because he was from the region but also because it was strategically more fit to be used for a capital than Karachi, which was a port and unsafe since our navy was weak.

I still wonder why they didn't choose Sylhet or Dhaka as a capital but it doesn't matter now, because the differences had always been present in our psyche.

Hopefully, we don't make the same mistake now, vis-a-vis Baluchistan.

Capitals always need to be diverse so the people from the specific communities that live there never separate or bother doing so. The majority of Washington D.C. is also African-American (Black) but that doesn't mean discrimination doesn't exist (despite having Blacks as homeless outside the White House, they have one inside, as well. How about we do that too? ;) Sikhs are appeased in India thanks to Manmohan and they even have a Kashmiri federal minister along with 17 ministers from the South).

Anywhoo, Islamabad is not diverse, unlike Quetta, which is home to Pashtun and Baluch in equal numbers with Hazaras that have a presence in Afghanistan, there, too (Speaker is Hazara Shia just like Lebanon's speaker, who is also Shi'a).
