Bugti, the grandson of Baloch nationalist leader Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti who was killed by Pakistan forces 10 years ago, said he will file the asylum application to the Indian government through the country's embassy here soon.
"We have decided to formally file asylum papers to Indian Government soon. We will follow the legal process for the application," he told reporters here.
Bugti is currently living in exile in Switzerland.
He also said his Baloch Republican Party has decided to approach the International Criminal Court against Pakistani army generals.
Last month, Bugti had thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for raising the issue of the situation in Balochistan in his Independence Day speech.
