Making an intervention during the ongoing 45th Session of UN Human Rights Council in Geneva on Thursday, Mengal was quoted as saying by ANI: "On one side the Baloch are facing systematic military operations, displacements, enforced disappearances, on the other side state have deprived them of presenting their culture, reading, writing their mother language, barred from cultural norms and traditions. Just to eliminate their identity."

“Out of 13,000 over 9,000 schools in Balochistan are without drinking water and toilets,” he said.

He quoted the Baloch Peoples’ Congress, a political party, saying, “The Conspiracy to detach the Baloch from its identity is on the peak, PM Imran Niazi has announced a package naming it for 'Southern Balochistan'.

“For us, this is a conspiracy to divide Balochistan and maintain occupation with ease. Unfortunately on the other side, Iran is also doing the same, by deleting the name of Balochistan from textbooks and maps," he was quoted as saying by ANI.
