Free Balochistan boards in New York; Awarness- Pak abuse Human rights

New York, Dec 29: Many billboards displaying - hash-tagged #FreeBalochistan — have come up around the iconic Times Square in New York City, drawing attention to rampant human rights abuses by the Pakistan government in its restive southwestern province.

Similar billboards and signs mounted on trucks and about 100 taxis have been driven around New York, especially in front of the consulates of Pakistan and China, said the World Baloch Organisation (WBO), which is behind the campaign that began on December 20.

The slogans include "#FreeBalochistan from human rights abuses" and "Raise your voice against human rights abuses in #Balochistan by Pakistan Army".

Referring to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor that goes up to Gwadar port in Balochistan, one of the signs read, "No to CPEC, the China-Pakistan project that aims to loot and plunder Balochistan."
