The Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC; Balochi: بلۏچ یکجهتی کمیٹی; lit.'Baloch Unity Committee') or Balochistan Yakjehti Committee ('Balochistan Unity Committee'), is a human rights movement established in response to alleged state human rights abuses in Balochistan, Pakistan. The BYC's roots can be traced back to July 2018, when Mahrang Baloch conceived the idea for its formation following the abduction of her brother by Pakistani intelligence agencies. The organisation has been confronted by Pakistani government as proxy of terrorist organisations and criminal smuggler groups.
