About Party History
National Party, founded in 2003, is a secular, progressive, and democratic political force rooted in the aspirations of Pakistan’s oppressed nations and working people. Guided by the principles of social democracy, inclusive federalism, and human dignity, we envision a peaceful, pluralistic, and prosperous federation where all citizens enjoy equal rights, security, and justice.
Our history stems from the union of two ideological movements: Balochistan National Movement (BNM) and Balochistan National Democratic Party (BNDP). These organizations trace their roots back to the National Awami Party (NAP), which has historically fought for democratic federalism and people’s rights.
We are the heirs of a century-long national democratic struggle that began in Balochistan in 1918, expanding to Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab, and Sindh. Our mission remains clear: a democratic Pakistan where power flows from the people, and all federating units have control over their resources and decision-making.
