...The Kargil War (Hindi: करगिल युद्ध kārgil yuddh),(Urdu: کارگل جنگ kārgil jang), also known as the Kargil conflict,[note (I)] was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil district of Kashmir and elsewhere along the Line of Control (LOC). The conflict is also referred to as Operation Vijay (Victory in Hindi) which was the name of the Indian operation to clear the Kargil sector.[12] The cause of the war was the infiltration of Pakistani soldiers and Kashmiri militants into positions on the Indian side of the LOC,[13] which serves as the de facto border between the two states. During the initial stages of the war, Pakistan blamed the fighting entirely on independent Kashmiri insurgents, but documents left behind by casualties and later statements by Pakistan's Prime Minister and Chief of Army Staffshowed involvement of Pakistani paramilitary forces,[14][15][16] led by General Ashraf Rashid.[17] The Indian Army, later on supported by theIndian Air Force, recaptured a majority of the positions on the Indian side of the LOC infiltrated by the Pakistani troops and militants. With international diplomatic opposition, the Pakistani forces withdrew from the remaining Indian positions along the LOC. The war is one of the most recent examples of high altitude warfare in mountainous terrain, which posed significant logistical problems for the combating sides. This was only the second direct ground war between any two countries...

...M. Adeel Sohail 14767 Assignment # 3 Analysis of Pakistani Industries Miss Sadia Mansoor Nationalization of Steel and Wheat Industry in Pakistan Nationalization In 1972, nationalization program was implemented by Mr. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto for the very first time in Pakistan. The aim of this process was to promote economic democracy, liberalization, and to put the country in state of progressivism. Ended in 1977, this program was again put forward in 1996 by Benazir Bhutto. Despite its success in the initial years, these programs left disastrous effects on Pakistan’s national economy. Impact on Wheat Industry In the third phase of nationalization (year 1976), around 2,000 cotton, ginning, and rice husking units came under the program. This caused huge chaos among the workers of the country, especially the farmers as the agricultural hub was being affected by the policy. The program eliminated the crucial role of middlemen. The first and second phase had already created resentment among investors and trading agents across the country. There were various implications that nationalization gave to Pakistan: hyper inflation, drastic fall in production & GDP growth which consequently led to low savings & tax collections, resulting in unemployment, loss of confidence in the investor sentiment, public sector overweighed, sick industries, fall in production and most importantly increase in corruption. Government socialist policies against the business elite was believed to...

...Pakistan election violence forces candidates behind high walls Dozens killed in attack on political rally in Pakistan Mon, May 6 2013 [pic][pic] [pic] By Katharine Houreld PESHAWAR, Pakistan | Mon May 6, 2013 7:24pm EDT (Reuters) - Mian Hussain is fighting for his political life from a deserted party headquarters, where two telephones sit silently beside him and the footsteps of a tea boy echo down the corridor. One of Pakistan's most high-profile anti-Taliban politicians, Hussain hasn't been to a single public event since campaigning for the May 11 election kicked off. A fiery orator who once electrified big rallies, he now makes short speeches by telephone to small huddles of supporters meeting in secret. For the spokesman of the Awami National Party (ANP), it's just too dangerous to go out. Since April, the Pakistani Taliban have killed more than 70 people in attacks targeting three major political parties, preventing many of their most prominent candidates from openly campaigning. Hussain worries the Taliban want to rig the elections in favor of parties that will take a softer line with their determination to stamp a radical brand of Islam on the country. He says that is why the Taliban are targeting the ruling coalition that backed military operations against them - Hussain's ANP, the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) and the Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM), whose offices have been repeatedly bombed. The ANP has borne the brunt of the attacks because it is staunchly...

...counsel government officials feel obliged, and perhaps even privileged, to seek. Thus, it was least surprising to see nearly all big shots of the country’s financial services industry stand in awe as Mian Mansha walked into the ballroom of a Karachi hotel on Friday evening to speak about the offer for sale of shares in a Nishat group subsidiary, Lalpir Power Limited. However, commensurate with the stature that he has attained in the last two decades, Mian Mansha chose to speak about larger issues confronting the economy of Pakistan. “This country has changed forever. We’re going to have reverse immigration. The future looks really bright,” said Mian Mansha, who is known to have a close working relationship with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, another Mian from Lahore. He is currently part of a high-profile, albeit informal, team that the prime minister has tasked with the resolution of the energy crisis. “The government is going to pay off the circular debt, hopefully once and for...

...The history of Pakistan encompasses the history of the region constituting modern Pakistan. Prior to independence in 1947, the territory of modern Pakistan was a part of the British Indian Empire. Prior to that it was ruled in different periods by local kings and numerous imperial powers. The ancient history of the region comprising present-day Pakistan also includes some of the oldest empires of Indian Subcontinent[1] and some of its major civilizations.[2][3][4][5] By the 18th century the land was incorporated into British India. Pakistan's political history began with the birth of the All India Muslim League in 1906 to protect "Muslim interests, amid neglect and under-representation" and to oppose Congress and growing Indian nationalism in return the British Raj would decide to grant local self-rule. On 29 December 1930, philosopher Sir Muhammad Iqbal called for an autonomous new state in "northwestern India for Indian Muslims".[6] The League rose to popularity in the late 1930s. Muhammad Ali Jinnah espoused the Two Nation Theory and led the League to adopt the Lahore Resolution[7] of 1940, demanding the formation of independent states in the East and the West of British India. Eventually, a successful movement led by Jinnah resulted in the partition of India and independence from Britain, on 14 August 1947. On 12 March 1949, the second constituent assembly of Pakistan passed the Objectives Resolution which was proposed by the first Prime Minister Liaquat Ali Khan, proclaimed...

...wounded more than 120. The attack happened when the Christian worshipers were dismissed from the service. At this time, all of a sudden, an explosion occurred followed by another. Of the 78 killed, 34 included women and 7 children. The attack coincided with a broader wave of attacks on religious minorities, including Shiite Muslims this year. In March, a Muslim mob swarmed through a Christian neighborhood in the eastern city of Lahore, burning two churches and more than 100 houses. Christians also frequently find themselves accused of blasphemy under Pakistan’s strict blasphemy laws. The attacks are mostly orchestrated by Sunni extremist militant groups, although some have also been claimed by the Pakistani Taliban. Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has been trying to initiate peace talks with the Pakistani Taliban, aimed at ending a decade of violence. Mr. Khan said he believed that the bombings were an attempt to sabotage the peace talks. “A conspiracy is being hatched to drag the country back to the 10-year-old morass,” he said, referring to the time when former President Pervez Musharraf allied himself with the United States in the effort against militancy and extremism. According to British Broadcasting Corporation, “The BBC reports that 'militants linked to [the] Pakistani Taliban have...

First, empowerment requires that power can change. If power cannot change, if it is inherent in positions or people, then empowerment is not possible, nor is empowerment conceivable in any meaningful way. In other words, if power can change, then empowerment is possible. Second, the concept of empowerment depends upon the idea...

...Expansion Projects of Karakoram Highway Abstract The KKH expansion project is China’s brainchild and an initiative of ex-President of Pakistan, General Pervez Musharraf. The ambitious plan, for improving the crossregional transportation and commercial network among the client states, will convert KKH into a 90-feet wide expressway for a threefold increase in the existing capacity. The expansion and re-alignment will allow speed with safety and cost reduction by accommodating heavy-laden trailers under extreme climatic conditions. The corridor development project will cost $6 billion and will link Central Asia and China to the Asian highway network, passing through Afghanistan and Iran.54 Further, a 1,100 km long rail-link worth costing $10.237 billion will also be laid, which will cut the distance between Pakistan’s capital Islamabad and China’s trade centre Kashgar to a mere seventeen hours.
