Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfraz Bugti has emphatically denied the existence of no-go areas in the province, stating that lawmakers regularly visit their constituencies to address public concerns. Speaking at an open court in North Dera Bugti on Saturday, Bugti emphasized the government's commitment to resolving public grievances and providing essential services.
According to Bugti, the government has taken concrete steps to ensure that no-go areas are non-existent in Balochistan. He highlighted that open courts are intended to facilitate direct communication between citizens and the government, ensuring accountability and prompt resolution of complaints.
The CM directed officials to act swiftly on public complaints and ensure that people's issues are resolved without delay. He stressed the importance of regional development, mentioning efforts to secure federal funds for a highway linking Taunsa in Punjab with Balochistan. This project, he said, would provide an alternative route to Punjab upon completion.

The CM's visit to North Dera Bugti was part of a series of initiatives aimed at ensuring that all areas of Balochistan are accessible and that the government is responsive to the needs of its citizens.
