and district officials on the prevailing situation and uplift schemes observed that officials deputed in the Dera Bugti district were not performing their duties, which has hampered the development process in the area.
 "Dwellers of the Dera Bugti have been suffering, just because of the

hospitals to the FC, he said "if FC can run hospital why it was impossible for the health department." Schools are deserted, hospitals are closed, we all are responsible if situation goes the same way.

acknowledge that civil departments have failed to deliver the masses in
Dera Bugti, however, he vowed to resume smooth and effective functioning of the departments including education and health to remove the grievances of the people.
 Babar reiterating government pledge said, that he along with
secretaries of all important department were in town to listen to the problem of the area people and subsequently devise a remedial plan.
