I font believe that ethnicity differences can drive protests where masses start asking for a country of their own.
India has more differences of ethnicity. There is almost every religion. We speak at least over 500 languages. There's so much of variety in culture, I bet you can't find anywhere! But there's never been any such case in India because people are not suffering here.
While in Balochistan, people are suffering. They don't even have so much that they can fullfill basic needs.
So, IMHO, it's the summit of sufferings that gives rise to such separatist movements. However, it's too late for Pakistan now. This movement will definitely see one more country on the global maps!
Ethnic differences certainly aren't sufficient to fracture a society, but it's easy for human brains to draw those lines and develop animosity. That's what grows into the kind of oppression you're describing, which is then what drives a demand for independence.
Do you expect the Iranian and Afghani parts of Balochistan to also be part of this new country?
reply
I agree to your point!
I don't view those parts to be coming with New Balochistan with the rise of Balochistan. Maybe later when they see Balochistan progressing.
