The peaceful sit-in by Baloch women in Islamabad for the recovery of missing persons was perhaps the last protest, after which some women deemed it better to take up arms against state repression instead of shedding tears.
When the state, instead of delivering justice to its people, also refuses to recognize their constitutional and legal rights, rebellion is born in society. It is this injustice that compels people to take up arms.
In societies where justice has been extinguished, the trend of armed resistance becomes the last remaining path. The fact that a large number of Baloch women are joining the armed struggle is extremely alarming and constitutes an extremely dangerous situation for any state.
