The residents of the remote areas were earning their bread and butter through illegal means of business due to unavailability of job opportunities. The people were facing unemployment because there is no industry and other economic activities in the area.

IGFC South carefully listened the issues of Border Trade Union and advised that local trader community to approach the authorities in Islamabad by sending a delegation and meet the Federal Government and the Prime Minister. The traders should formally request the authorities for seeking permission to open Legal Border Trade Corridor Gate and Gray bun Crossing Point at Zamuran Jalagi in the same pattern of Redeeg mand and Gabad Ramdan Border Gwadar.

He said FC was striving to maintain durable peace in order to ensure protection of public lives and their property in the area.

Hafiz Nasiruddin told IGFC that the law and order situation in the border areas is better due to the sacrifices of local tribesmen and security forces.

Hafiz Nasiruddin informed IGFC South that on both sides of the Pak-Iran border, Local Baloch tribes have inhabited for centuries and the need for crossing points and transit points on the long border has increased since the Iranian border fencing, but at present only the Gray bun Zamuran border transit point has been approved after the Redeeg border and the crossing points gate. No steps have been taken so far for the reopening of the border, which has caused great distress and concern to the people of the border areas, Hafiz added.
