Balochistan Chief Minister says he will not use bulletproof cars anymore

Chief Minister (CM) of Balochistan Mir Abdul Quddus Bizenjo has refused to utilise bulletproof and bombproof vehicles for his own personal use.

Bizenjo has also declared that no one in his government will get VIP treatment, prohibiting his cabinet and senior officers from using any of these vehicles.

The decision took place in the backdrop of multiple provincial security forces recently losing their lives in terrorist attacks.

“In many incidents, security duty officers were targeted by terrorists but we [civilians] use our own bulletproof vehicle,” Balochistan CM said.

It is pertinent to mention that Balochistan is the most vulnerable province of Pakistan in terms of man-made disasters especially terrorism and civil unrest.
