BRP president Nawabzada Barmdagh Bugti rebuked the government's claims saying the Baloch people were fighting for their independence without any foreign help.
Bugti termed Islamabad's claims about India's involvement in the Baloch struggle as 'baseless propaganda', saying it wants to divert the international community's attention from the atrocities being meted out to Balochis.
"The government wants to hide its atrocities perpetrated against the Baloch people from the world by launching a baseless propaganda," The Dawn quoted Bugti, as saying.
Bugti urged the international community to address the brutalities of security forces against the Baloch people.
"The international community should send independent observers to monitor the situation in these areas," he said.
Earlier reports in the Pakistani media had said that Islamabad had handed over a dossier to New Delhi detailing India's covert subversion in the restive province of Balochistan.
According to the report, the dossier also blamed India for carrying out terror attacks on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore and the Manawan police academy.
However, India has termed the allegations 'baseless'.
Government sources denied that any such dossier was given to Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh at Sharm-el-Sheikh in Egypt.
