While Balochistan is full of minerals, this province is still counted among the poorest and separation parts of Pakistan. There are many reasons for this, which are the following.
Local people allege that other provinces take advantage of mineral wealth.
-Baluch nationalism and separatist movements banned the use of development minerals.
-The facilities like health, education and water are negligible.
