 Balochistan Independence News: A viral claim that Balochistan has declared independence from Pakistan has sparked intense debate across social media and drawn international attention to the region’s long-running separatist movement. A statement issued in the name of the “Republic of Balochistan” claims that the new administration controls 85% of the territory and has adopted its own national flag, anthem, currency and governance system.

However, the declaration has not been independently verified, and neither the Pakistani government nor any international body has officially recognised the claim.

 Balochistan News: Viral Letter Claims Balochistan Has Declared Independence

A letter circulating widely on social media claims that Balochistan has officially declared itself an independent republic under the name “Republic of Balochistan.” According to the document, the new administration controls nearly 85% of the province’s territory and has established its own government.

However, these claims have not been independently verified, and there has been no official confirmation from Pakistan, the United Nations or any recognised international government.

 Balochistan News: Claims of New Flag, National Anthem and Currency

The viral statement says the self-declared republic has adopted a national flag, selected “Ma Chukain Balochani” as its national anthem, introduced a new currency called the “Balochi Falus,” and established an independent administrative system.

It further claims that the new authorities now control key natural resources, including gold and copper mines, gas fields and coal mines across the region.

According to the letter, “Balochistan has declared its independence, adopted its national anthem, “Ma Chukain Balochani,” introduced its national flag, established its own currency, the “Balochi Falus” and now exercises control over 85% of the territory of Balochistan.”

The statement also says, “These developments make Balochistan deserving of international recognition. We now control the republic’s gold and copper mines, more than 150 active gas fields, and over 1,200 operational coal mines across the Republic of Balochistan.

None of these claims has been independently verified.

 Balochistan News: Letter Claims Security Personnel Have Joined the Baloch Side

The document also alleges that members of Pakistan’s military and security agencies have resigned and joined the Baloch movement.

It states, “Today, we are administering the State of Balochistan through our own security and defence forces. We may not possess fighter jets, attack helicopters, tanks, missiles, or heavy artillery, but we control our land. A force of 500,000 personnel comprising the Balochistan military, navy, air force, and civil administration stands ready to overthrow the occupying forces of Pakistan by the end of 2026.”

There is no independent evidence supporting these claims.

 Balochistan News: Appeal for International Recognition

The self-proclaimed administration has urged the international community to recognise Balochistan as an independent country.

The statement argues that recognising Balochistan would promote regional stability and prevent Pakistan from using the territory for military operations. It also claims that many Baloch and Pashtun personnel have left Pakistan’s armed forces to support the movement. These assertions remain unverified.

Baloch leader Mir Yar Baloch claimed that civilians have joined the resistance against the Pakistan Army.

He said, “The situation in the Republic of Balochistan is gradually falling under the control of Balochistan. The Pakistan army is losing ground and is now merely relying on its air forces. The people of the Republic of Balochistan are resisting everywhere. Before it was armed, the Balochistan people, now the civilian population, are also coming to resist and asking the Pakistan Army to vacate Balochistan soon.”

His remarks have not been independently verified.
