The Haq Do Tehreek Balochistan (lit.‘Give rights movement’ abbreviated as HDT or HDTB) is a Pakistani political movement and party active in southern Balochistan, mainly in Gwadar.[1][3] The party's leader is Hidayat ur Rehman Baloch, who is a veteran Balochi nationalist politician from Gwadar.[1] The party is active in southern port areas of Balochistan and protests issues like illegal fishing.[1] The HDT was founded in 2021 in a coalition of politicians who advocated for human rights for Baloch people in Pakistan.[4] The party heavily campaigned and won a majority of votes in the 2024 Balochistan provincial elections in the Balochistan provincial assembly seat PB-24.[5] The Haq Do Tehreek also has a somewhat affiliation with the Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan.[6]
Ideology
The Party's leaders have criticized the Pakistani central and provincial government's decisions of having a “non-serious attitude” to Balochistan's many issues.[1][7] The HDT focuses on the four main issues.
- Iran-Pakistan border issues including checkpoints, and Iran-Pakistan border trade[1]
- Security issues (Military involvement in Balochistan)[1]
- Illegal fishing in Balochistan's ports (mainly Gwadar)[1]
- Human rights for Balochis in Gwadar and throughout Pakistan[1][4]
- China-Pakistan Economic Corridor[8][3]
The HDT leader Hidayat ur Rehman Baloch has openly protested against the government of China and Pakistan for their building of the Gwadar port as part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.[9][7]
The party supports Baloch nationalism and advocates for a greater government focus on the issues of Balochistan.[1] The HDT’s main focus has been diverted to the port of Gwadar, where they have highly advocated for a halt to Illegal fishing and trawling, but they are mostly known for their stance against the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.[1]
