He urged the tribal elders to talk to the angry Balochs to come and play their role in the construction and development of the province and the country.
Ali Mardan said, "There is no room for any kind of concession and leniency on the integrity and survival of the country.
It should be understood that the state was always ready to defend the country and no one was allowed to destroy the peace of the country."
Minister of Home and Tribal Affairs Mir Zubair Khan Jamali welcomed all the tribal leaders and highlighted the main aims
of the Jirga.
He also welcomed the people who joined the national stream and were associated with the anti state activities for a long time but today they are convinced it has nothing to do except destruction.
Speaking at the Jirga, Tribal leader Nawab Muhammad Khan Shahwani said for the resolution of tribal conflicts in the province, the help of commissioners, deputy commissioners and administrative officers was needed.
He said regional reconciliation committees should be formed in this regard to ensure the promotion of peace by resolving local-level conflicts so it will have positive effects.
Former Federal minister and tribal leader Sardar Umar Khan Gorgaij said steps should be taken to resolve the conflicts between different tribes in the province.
Caretaker Minister for sports Nawabzada Mir Jamal Khan Raisani said, "Pakistan is the country that we earned through immense sacrifices rendered by our forefathers."
