Baloch separatist leader and head of the Baloch Republican Party (BRP), Brahamdagh Bugti, has announced publicly on Monday that he will be appealing for a political asylum in India soon. According to Bugti, the decision was reached in a meeting of his party’s central committee meeting. He revealed that “the meeting of our central committee ended today. And in the meeting the members of the central committee have decided with majority that I will appeal for a political asylum in India.”
Bugti explained that he plans to seek an appointment with the Indian embassy in Geneva and since “this decision has been taken and we will start working on it right away. Within two to three days, we will seek an appointment before the Indian embassy and we will present our case based on that.” Explaining the reason behind the move, Bugti elucidated that “our people in Balochistan and Afghanistan are in a very difficult situation. Very few of them are able to come to Europe, rest are living there only. So, we want that the Indian Government should open there doors for them and provide them access, including myself. Right now, I’m here (Switzerland), but I face problem regarding my travel. So, if I get an option to be in India, I will definitely go there.”
Upon inquiry about why did he choose India to seek asylum, he replied that “India is our neighboring country. In Europe, even if a government or the immigration department knows the problem, the people don’t. But in India, the people know about our problems, we will have their support. We share the same culture. We will be closer to our people and our people can easily seek asylum there, and it is easier for them to reach there with their families.”
