Balochistan Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti on Monday chaired a consultative meeting to review preparations for the forthcoming National Finance Commission (NFC) Award, emphasizing fairness, inclusivity, and consensus in the process.
Provincial Finance Minister Mir Shoaib Nosherwani briefed the session on the province’s financial position and urgent priorities. The chief minister said consultations would be held with all political parties and subject experts, including those outside parliament, to build a unified stance for Balochistan.
Bugti said the NFC Award must recognize the province’s unique challenges and ensure transparent distribution of resources. He described the award as an opportunity to strengthen federal harmony and foster national solidarity.
“The aspirations of the people of Balochistan must be reflected in the award,” he noted, adding that input from economists and intellectuals would also guide the province’s case.
The chief minister expressed hope that a fair share of resources would accelerate development and prosperity across Balochistan. He concluded that the true success of all stakeholders lay in a stronger federation and that the NFC Award should become a means of national trust and unity.
