LBTTT a Gilgit — at Gilgit-Baltistan

Gilgit, March 01: Gilgit Baltistan is on a boil. The rising unemployment has wreaked havoc with the economic and social fabric of Gilgit Baltistan. Many accuse the puppet administration propped up by Islamabad of being unmindful of the aspirations of the youth here. Most of the jobs are cornered by Pakistanis, locals allege.
