Abstract

In CPEC, Balochistan especially Gwadar port holds an important
position. After the inauguration of CPEC, Gwadar and Balochistan has
become the central issue of the Pakistan, China and the whole Asia. As
like, China’s One Belt, One Road (OBOR) initiative, Gwadar would also
connect all the provinces of Pakistan with each other through highways
and trades. Although, there were various controversies on CPEC, now, a
consensus is being established and the routes have been finalized to
promote regional connectivity which would ultimately lead towards the
China, and Eurasia. In a result, the geographical and economic
conditions of Gwadar will be progressive in the near future through the
proposed investments and developments in Balochistan
