According to scholar Frederic Grare, the underlying issues that are generating the conflict are “expropriation, marginalization, and dispossession” (Grare 5). The Pakistani government has expropriated Baluchistan land the for recreation area. Despite being the richest province in terms of energy and mineral resources, Baluchistan remains one of the most underdeveloped provinces. Baluchistan subsoil holds a significant portion of Pakistan’s energy and mineral resources. It accounts for thirty six percent of its total gas production (Grare 4). However, Baluchistan only consumes seventeen percent of its own production. The remaining eighty three percent is distributed throughout the rest of the country. Furthermore, Baluchistan receives only twelve point four percent of the earnings due to it for its supply (Grare 5).

Baluchistan is the poorest province of Pakistan (Grare 4). Over 70% of the Baloch population lives on a part of their traditional territory. Baluchistan is the largest among Pakistan’s four provinces, comprising forty three percent of land area, but only six percent of Pakistan’s total population (Jafferelot 31). Baloch trace their roots to tribes that migrated east from around Aleppo, in Syria before Christian era. Baloch speak Balochi, part of the Iranian group of Indo-European languages. The majority of Baloch peoples are Hanafi Sunni, of Islam faith (Jafferelot 31).

The rest of the "paragraph" doesn't follow. Support sentences in paragraphs are supposed to explain and support the topic sentence. You need to finish the paragraph following your topic sentence and then move all the rest of this into a different paragraph with its own topic sentence -- if it's at all applicable to your paper. (If it's not, then delete it.)
