The committee focuses on issues such as human rights violations, cultural preservation, and political autonomy for the Baloch population. It often highlights concerns over resource exploitation in Balochistan and seeks to raise awareness about the struggles faced by the Baloch community.

Enforced disappearance in Balochistan is a critical human rights issue characterised by the abduction of individuals, often political activists, journalists, or ordinary citizens--by state authorities or military personnel, with their whereabouts intentionally concealed.

This practice is rooted in the ongoing political strife in the region, where Baloch nationalist groups seek greater autonomy and control over local resources. In response, the Pakistani state has employed heavy-handed tactics, including military operations that result in the systematic targeting of dissenting voices.

The impact on society is profound, creating a climate of fear that stifles political expression and erodes trust in state institutions. Families of the disappeared often face harassment and are left in a state of uncertainty and grief, prompting them to organise and advocate for justice.

Despite widespread documentation of these violations by human rights organisations, enforced disappearances persist, highlighting the urgent need for accountability and protection of human rights in Balochistan. (ANI)
