Abstract

Post-colonial states has been remained a home to multi ethno lingual and hetero cultural folders. Pakistan is one of the examples, having diversified ethno lingual groupings. It has four provinces and each have a distinct socio, cultural and lingual identity. Currently these Ethno-Nationalist movements have pivotal position in the political life of Baluchistan. The land of Baluchistan has experienced the violent tides of different ethno national and sectarian movements, but communalism in Baluchistan pushes the country toward hot water. Along this, uncountable waves of religious extremism in the region add fuel to fire. Both communalism and religious extremism is proving a thorn in flesh and the major hurdle to strengthen the socio economic political path. The concerned study aims to detect major driving factors that contribute to violent moves and also suggests remedial measures to eradicate yielded crisis. That voices our endeavors to cultivate literacy, harmony, equality, and in short neutralization of ethno national movements. The research concludes that intensity of ethnic rise must be the Centre of our priorities because still the water is in dormant position once it flowed, than it would be an uphill task to bear the aftershocks. This piece is intended to highlight the root cause of ethno nationalism and also the expected nightmare as we had faced in the form of Dhaka’s fall.

Keywords: Ethno-nationalism, fragmentation, harmony, regional stability, socio economic political disparities.
