Abdul Hamid Khan is chairman of the Balawaristan National Front (BNF), a nationalist political party of Gilgit-Baltistan, the Northern Areas of Pakistan. Along with his friends Nawaz Khan Naji, Mohammad Rafiq and Shujaat Ali, Khan established BNF on July 30, 1992.

“I was mentally shocked and my conscious shook when Pakistani and Afghan terrorists attacked our brothers (Shia Muslims) by using the name of religion in 1988 during General Zia’s regime, otherwise I was sympathizer and worker of Pakistani parties like Tehrik-e-Istiqlal. I was supporter of Nizam-e-Mustafa campaign in 1977 against Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto."[1]

Khan was born on July 10, 1953,[citation needed] in Bahrkohlti, a small village of Yasin in the Ghizer district.
