Big split in Pakistan even before the war, an entire state on India's side?

Islamabad, May 5, 2025: Big news of internal instability is emerging in Pakistan even before the talks of war. According to sources, political and social groups in the Balochistan province have started openly expressing support for India. This has created a stir in the Pakistan government and the army.
India has taken a tough stance against Pakistan after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. India has imposed economic sanctions on Pakistan and has also questioned the Indus Water Treaty. Against this backdrop, some influential leaders and local people in Balochistan have called for a rebellion against the Pakistan government. They claim that Balochistan is being continuously wronged by the Pakistani government and that it is in their interest to maintain friendly relations with India.
Groups like the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) have also taken advantage of this situation and intensified their activities. Last week, the BLA attacked a Pakistani army convoy and caused heavy damage. Local sources say that the people of Balochistan are now adamant on their demand for independence or closer ties with India.
Former Pakistani Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif, while expressing the possibility of war, had said, “We have to be mentally and militarily prepared.” However, this split in Balochistan could be a major blow to Pakistan’s unity. Some analysts believe that if Balochistan supports India, it could have an impact on the entire South Asian politics.
India has not officially commented on this, but the Ministry of External Affairs says that India is in favor of peace and stability. Meanwhile, the possibility of war and political instability is increasing due to these developments in Pakistan.
The repercussions of this incident are also being felt at the international level. Although China has shown support for its ally Pakistan, it is increasingly concerned about the situation in Balochistan. Everyone is watching to see what else happens in this matter in the coming days.
