Friendsmania.net
Introduction
North West Frontier Province is an important
province of Pakistan. Its capital is Peshawar. Famous Khyber Pass is situated
in this province. Foreign invaders entered sub-continent through this pass. It
is an historical passage. Khushal Khan Khattak and Rehman Baba are the most
famous poets of this province.
Facing Difficulties
Frontier is the province of Muslim majority. But
Muslim League had to face many difficulties and problems while establishing it
here. This difficulty was due to the leaders that were under the influence of
Congress and they favoured its policies. Among such leaders Sarhadi Gandhi
Abdul Ghaffar Khan was at the top of the list. In this province, Congress had
the ministry that opposed the movement of Muslim League.
Organization of Muslim League
Muslim League slowly made its strong hold there
under the leadership of the Quaid. Muslim League began to become popular in
Frontier after passing Pakistan Resolution in 1940. Muslims of this area began
to join Muslim League. Congress in this province started making false cases
against the Muslim Leaders to torture them and locked them in jails. But they
did not lose their courage. The struggle of Muslim League after 1945 became
active. Among the leaders which contributed a lot are Khan Abdul Qayyum Khan,
Peer Sahib Zakori Sharif and Peer Sahib Manki Sharif.

Demand for Pakistan
In February, 1947 Muslim League started the Non
Co-Operative Movement against the Congress. Provincial Government gave hard
tortures to Muslim League workers but it could not stop the Muslim League
movement. Instead, it began to spread in the whole province. Provincial
government began to be hated everywhere in the province and meetings of Muslim
League began to be held in favour of separate homeland. In his way it was
proved that the people of Muslim League were in the favour of Pakistan.
Conflict between Muslim League and Congress
On 3rd June, 1947 British government accepted
the demand of Pakistan and declared that the future of Frontier will be decided
by vote. So the Muslims stopped Non-Cooperation Movement. Muslim started
convincing the people to give vote for Pakistan. On the other hand Congress
started movement against Pakistan and raised a slogan of Free Baluchistan.
Joining Pakistan
The people of Frontier voted in favour of
Pakistan in a large majority. In this way Frontier became the part of Pakistan
and the Muslims of Frontier got their independence.

Fourteen Points of Quaid-e-Azam
Friendsmania.net
Introduction
In March 1929, at the annual session of All
India Muslim League, Quaid-e-Azam declared his famous fourteen points.
Federal System
The form of the future constitution should be
federal with the residuary powers rested in the provinces.
Provincial Autonomy
A uniform measure of autonomy shall be granted
to all provinces.
Representation of Minorities
All legislative in the country and other elected
bodies shall be constituted on the definite principles of adequate and
effective representation of minorities in every province without reducing the
majority in any province to a minority or even equality.
Number of Muslim Representatives
In the central legislative, Muslims
representatives shall be not less than one-third.
Separate Electorates
Representative of communal groups shall continue
to be by means of separate electorates as at present provided it shall be open
to any community, at any time, to abandon its separate electorate in favour of
joint electorate.
Muslim Majority Provinces
Any territorial re-distribution that might at
any time be necessary shall not in any way affects the Muslim majority in
Punjab, Bengal and N.W.F.P.
Religious Liberty
Full religious liberty, liberty of belief,
worship and observance, association and education shall be guaranteed to all
the communication.
Three-Fourth Representation
No bill or resolution shall be passed in any
legislative or any other elected body if three-fourths of the members of any
community in that particular body oppose such a bill.
Separation of Sindh
Sindh should be separated from Bombay
Presidency.
Introduction of Reforms in N.W.F.P and
Baluchistan
Reforms should be introduced in the Noth West
Frontier Province and Baluchistan on the same footing as in other provinces.
Government Services
Muslims should be given adequate share along
with ohter Indians in the services of State.
Protection of Muslim's Culture and Language
The constitution should embody adequate
safeguard for the protection of Muslim culture, language, religion and
civilization.
One-Third Muslim Ministries
No Cabinet, either central or provincial is
formed. Without being a proportion of atleast one third Muslim Ministers.
Conclusion
No change shall be made in the constitution of
State except with the concurrence of State constituting the Indian Federation.
The reasonable and moderate demands, contained in the fourteen points, were
rejected by the Hindus leaders which considerably widened the gulf between the
two communities.
Importance of Jinnah's Fourteen Points
A comparison of the Nehru Report with the
Quaid-e-Azam's fourteen points shows that the political gap between the Muslims
and the Hindus had really widened. Fourteen points of Quaid-e-Azam became
principles for the Muslims of India. The importance of these points can be
judged by the fact that these points were presented in the Round Table
Conference of 1930. As a result, these points became the demands of the Muslims
and greatly influenced the Muslims thinking for the next two decades till the
establishment of Pakistan in 1947.

Motives
and Objectives of Muslim League
friendsmania.net
Introduction
The important motives and objectives of Muslim
League are as under:
1. To safe guard and protect Muslim interests
and to convey their demands to British Government.
2. To create a feeling of respect and good will
in Muslims for the British Government.
3. To promote brotherhood between different
nationals of India.
Role of Muslim League
The role played by All India Muslim League in
the creation of Pakistan is summarized under:
Minto-Morley Reform Act - 1909
The Muslims under the able leadership of Muslim
League now began to press for the separate electroate for the Muslims. The
authorities accepted their demand in an Act, called "The Minto-Morley
Reform Act", 1909.
Lucknow Pact - 1916
In November 1916, two committees of League and
Congress met at Calcutta and drew and agreement draft of political reform for
India called "Lucknow Pact." Through this pact the Congress
recognized the separate status of Muslims.
Simon Commission
In 1927, Simon Commission was sent to India
under the chairmanship of Sir John Simon to settle Muslim Hindu differences. It
was rejected because there was no Indian member on the commission.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
Jinnah's Fourteen Points - 1929
The Quaid-e-Azam refused to accept the nehru -
report. He prepared a draft of guiding principles consisting of 14 points,
popularly known as "Jinnah's Fourteen Points."
Allama Iqbal's Allahabad Address - 1930
In 1930, in his presidential address at annual
session of League at Allahabad, Iqbal proposed the formation of a separate
Muslim State by combining Northern and South-Western Muslim majority region in
Sub Continent.
Day of Deliverance
On 22nd December, Muslim League observed
"Deliverance Day" to thank for Allah for resignation of Congress
Ministers.
Pakistan Resolution - 1940
The attitude of the Hindus made it clear that the
Hindus and the Muslims were two separate nations. On March, 23rd, at the annual
session of the Muslim League at Lahore, the famous resolution, commonly known
as the Pakistan Resolution was passed. It was presented by Maulvi Fazlul Haq.
Cripps Mission - 1942
Sir Stafford Cripps was sent by the British
Government to India, to discuss with Indian leaders, the future Indian
Constitution. His proposal was rejected by both the Congress and the League.
The Congress characterized them as "a post-dated check on a failing
bank." Jinnah said that:
"If these were accepted "Muslims would become a minority in
their majority provinces as well".
Gandhi Jinnah Talks - 1944
Gandhi held talks with Jinnah to discuss about
the future of India, but no fruitful results came out of it because Gandhi did
not accept Muslims as a separate nation.
Simla Conference - 1945
Lord Wavell called a conference at Simla. The
conference failed to achieve any purpose due to one sided attitude of Lord
Wavell. In this conference, Quaid-e-Azam made it crystal clear that the (7)
Muslims League can represent Muslims of India.
General Elections - 1945-1946
Elections for the central and provincial
assemblies were held in 1945-1946 in which Muslim League won 30 seats of
central legislative meant for Muslim and 430 seats out of 495 in the provincial
legislative.
Cabinet Mission - 1946
Cabinet Mission visited India in 1946 and
submitted its recommendations to the Britishers. As a result Interim Government
was formed but Congress and League couldn't cooperate amongst them.
Delhi Convention - 1946
Quaid-e-Azam called a convention of all the
Muslim League Members at Delhi. At the convention every membter took the pledge
to under go any danger for the attainment of national goal of Pakistan.
3rd June Plan - 1947
Lord Mount Batten prepared the plan for
transference of power according to the wish of people. He emphasized on the
partition of the country and told that it was the only solution of the Indian
political deadlock. Both League and Congress accepted the plan.
Conclusion
Muslims League thus got its object and Pakistan
was created on 14th August 1947. In short we can say that the creation of
Pakistan is the result of the ceaseless efforts of the Muslim League and the
great heroes which dedicated their lives for the creation of Pakistan. If there
were be no Muslim League the fate of the Muslims of the Sub Continent could not
be changed

played very important role in the formation of Pakistan.
Historical Background
Sindh became the part of Muslim state firstly
after the victory of Mohammad Bin Qasim. That is why it is called the gateway
of Islam. During the rule of Mohammad Bin Qasim and his followers Sindh
remained the province of Abbasi Caliphate for nearly three centuries. During
this time, many great scholars were born there which made Sindh famous over the
Islamic world, during the decline period of Abbas when local rulers got the
control of Sindh. After this Sindh remained under the control of Sultans of
Delhi and Mughal rulers. However, the government of Muslims remained there till
the arrival of the British rule. Shah Abdul Latif Bhatai and Hazrat Sachal
Surmast are the famous Sufi poets of Sindh.
Separation of Bombay from Sindh
During the rule of the English, Sindh was made a
part of Bombay, due to which no attention given to the social and educational
position of Sindh. In Quaid's fourteen points the separation of Sindh from
Bombay was demanded. In this way due to the continuous efforts of Muslim League
Sindh was separated from Bombay in 1935. It was made a separate province of
Muslim majority.
Home Land of Quaid
Quaid-e-Azam was born in Karachi. He completed his
early education in Sindh Madrassa High School.

Pakistan Movement
The Muslims of Sindh took active part in
Pakistan Movement. In 1938 the Provincial Muslim League of Sindh passed a
resolution in which it was demanded that the provinces with Muslim majority
should be given to Muslims. It was the first time that any branch of Muslim
League passed a resolution of separate homeland.
Favour for Pakistan Resolution
On 23 March 1940, there was held a Muslim League
Session in Lahore in which Pakistan Resolution was passed. The Muslim League
leaders of Sindh supported the resolution very much. A prominent leader of
Sindh, Sir Abdullah Haroon felt happy on this pattern that the demand of Sindh
Muslim League made in 1938 became the demand of Muslim League on national
level.
Pakistan Demand Committee
Quaid-e-Azam made a committee in Sindh province
to speed up the struggle for Pakistan in which Sir Abdullah Haroom and many
other leaders of Sindh were the members. By the efforts of these Muslim leaders
the demand for Pakistan became more popular.
Muslim League Ministry
Muslim League in 1943 became so popular in Sindh
that it established its own ministry. In this way Sindh was the first province
in the sub continent where the Muslim League established its ministry. In
December 1943, Sindh Provincial Assembly once again became more superir to
other provinces by passing resolution in favour of Pakistan.
Success of Muslim League in Elections 1946
After the provincial elections in February 1946
the leader of the Muslim League, Sir Ghulam Hussain Hidayatullah established
ministry under leadership. But this assembly was dissolved due to the
conspiracies of Congress and new elections were held in 1946 in which Muslim
League won all the seats and established its ministry again.

Role of Punjab in the Making of Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Introduction
Punjab is the largest province of Pakistan. Lahore is the capital of Punjab.
Lahore is an historical city. Lahore has always been the centre of political
activity. So this province is called elder brother. This province played an
important role in the existence of Pakistan.
Strong Support for Pakistan
Punjab took active part in every political or non-political activity. In the
same way in Pakistan Movement, Punjab played its important role.
Allam Iqbal
Allama Iqbal took part in practical politics and created the wave of freedom in
the Muslims. He was the member of Provincial Council of Punjab. In 1930 he gave
the sketch of separate homeland for the Muslims in his Allahabad session. That
is why he is called the Painter of Pakistan. He gave very useful suggestions to
Quaid-e-Azam and showed his complete confidence in his leadership. Quaid also
respected Allama Iqbal. He said during Pakistan Movement, "If we succeeded
in getting a separate homeland for the Muslims and at one side I am given the
president-ship and at other side the books of Iqbal; I will select the books of
Iqbal." In 1931-1932 in London, Iqbal joined Round Table Conference so
that the political problems of sub continent could be solved.
Maulana zafer Ali Khan
Zafar Ali Khan also belonged to Punjab. He was a high rank generalist, national
hero and a great poet. "Zamindar" was his famouse newspaper in Urdu.
He founded "Majlis-e-Ahrar". This party launched a movement against
Kadiyanis. He stated the aims of Muslim League well by his pen and tongue when
he joined it. In 1936 elections, he was elected as the Member of Assembly on
Muslim League ticket and after this he remained on the front in the struggle
for independence. Iqbal said about Zafer Ali Khan:
"What work Mustafa Kamal Ataturk did for Turkey by his sword, Zafer
did the same work for the Muslims by his pen."
Chaudhry Rehmat Ali
chaudhry Rehmat Ali who suggested this name for Pakistan in 1932 lived in
Punjab. In those days he was studying in London. He made Muslims emotional by
his pamphlet, "Now or Never". He invented Pakistan by : P for
Pakistan, A for Afghani, F for Frontier Province, K for Kashmir, S for Sindh
and Tan for Baluchistan.

Pakistan Resolution
Muslim League slowly set its feet in Punjab. In the beginning some local and
provincial political parties opposed Muslim League but later on, Muslim League
became the most effective political party of Punjab under the leadership of
Quaid-e-Azam. On 23rd March 1940, there was held a meeting in Lahore in which
Pakistan Resolution or Lahore Resolution was passed in which Pakistan as a
separate homeland for the Muslims was demanded. Now-a-days Minar-e-Pakistan is
standing at that place.
Lahore As the Heart of Pakistan
Quaid-e-Azam rightly said "Lahore is the heart of Pakistan."
Effective Pakistan Movement
Muslim League became the most active emotional party in Punjab under the
leadership of Quaid-e-Azam. People from all groups of Punjab joined Pakistan
Movement.
Muslim League in Punjab Assembly
Muslim League took part in 1945-46 elections on the basis of demand for
Pakistan and won particular seats in the central assembly for Punjab. In
provincial elections, Muslim League won 75 seats out of 86. After this four
other members joined Muslim League. So Muslim League got 79 seats, in this way Muslim
League became the biggest party in Punjab. But the English governor of Punjab,
instead of offering the Muslims League to make government, offered the
government to Congress and Unionists party by conspiracy. Because of this,
government did not have the support of the people. Muslim League launched
"No Confidence Movement" and as a result, it had to resign
soon.
Wrong Division of Punjab
It was decided that the province of Punjab should be divided between India and
Pakistan. For this purpose an English Judge Radcliff was appointed as president
of Commission that by conspiracy with Mountbatten and Congress gave most
fertile areas of Muslim majority to India and the population of those Muslim
areas left their homes and had to migrate to Pakistan.
Disturbances and the Problem of Immigrants
When Hindus and Sikhs saw that sub-continent is being divided against their
interest they started disturbances in some regions of Punjab in which thousands
of Muslims were killed and injured. In this play of fire and blood, the Muslims
of Punjab proved very courageous and welcomed the refugees coming from India
and proved that the Muslims are brothers of each other in the hour of need

Sir Syed Ahmed Khan
Friendsmania.net
Early Education
Friendsmania.net
he was born in Delhi on 17th October 1817. Sir
Syed Ahmed Khan was a great reformer. He belonged to a prominent family of the
city. After completing his formal education, he entered service with the
British East India Company in 1839. He rose to the position of judge in 1846
and later on he was transferred to Banglore as the Chief Judge.
The First Task
Sir Syed Ahmed Khan began his first task to
soften British hostility towards the Muslims of subcontinent. He wrote a book
"Essay on the causes of the India Revolt" on the war of independence.
This book was sent to British Members of the parliament and was circulated
among British officials.
Educational Services
Sir Syed Ahmed Khan knew that the Muslims could
not achieve this goal without education. He set up a Persian school at
Muradabad in 1859. This school was upgraded to the college in 1875. This
college was upgraded to the college and the university level after his death.
The educated Muslims of the early twentieth century were the product of this
institution.
Political Services
He urged the Muslims to acquire knowledge first
and then they should take part in the politics of the subcontinent. After the
war of independence, his position was not less than that of a great political
reformer for Muslims.
Aligarh Movement
Aligarh Movement had the following objects:
1. To build confidence between the British and
the Muslims.
2. To persuade the Muslims to get scientific
knowledge and learn English language.
3. To hold back the Muslims from the collective
politics.
Effects of Aligarh Movement
His main focus was on Aligarh to achieve his
goals. he estabished Mohammad an Anglo Oriental School. It was a symbol of a
broad movement affecting every phase of Muslim life. The actions taken by Sir
syed Ahmed Khan for the educational uplift of the Muslims left a far-reaching
impact on the political, social, economic and religious aspects of the Muslims.
The Aligarh movement showed new ways to press and opened the doors of economic
prosperity for the Muslims of the sub-continent.
Congress and Sir Syed Ahmed Khan
In 1883, Lord A.O.Hume formed an organization
called Indian National Congress. The aim of this party was to provide a
political platform for the Indians. Many Indians joined this party. Sir Syed
Ahmed Khan was an open minded and large hearted person. He was a great patriot,
At first he considered all who lived in India as one nation and was a great
advocate of Hindu-Muslim unity. He looked both Hindus and Muslims with the same
eyes. He said,
"By the word "Nation", I mean
only Hindus and Muslims and nothing else. Our interests and problems are common
and therefore, I consider the two factions as one nation."
But unfortunately the attitude of Hindus and
Congress compelled him to reconsider his ideas about one nation. He felt sorry
to see that both Congress and Hindus looking against the interests of the
Muslims. Congress ignored the Muslims totally. He failed to bring Hundus and
Muslims closer a one single platform He saw that the Hindus never come forward
with open mind and always adopted a policy to damage the Muslim cause, so Sir
Syed Ahmed Khan advised the Muslims to keep themselves away from it. On 1st
October 1906 Sir Agha Khan led a Muslim delegation and met the Viceroy Lord
Minto at Simla to demand a separate electorate for Muslims in the coming
reforms. The viceroy save a good response to them. There being no political
party for Muslims at that time a strong need for it was felt. God Almightly
enabled them to form Muslim League.
Urdu-Hindi Controversy
In 1867, Hindus demanded that Hindi should be
made on official language of India in place of Urdu. They started an agitation.
The Hindus were against Urdu because it was the language o the Muslims, Sir
Syed felt sorry and he was now convinced that the Hindus would never be friend
with the Muslims.
The Real Founder of Pakistan
Sir Syed Ahmed Khan saw the attitude of Hindus
towards the Muslims and felt sorry for it. He declared,
"I am convinced now that Hindus and Muslims
could never become one nation."
Hindus and Muslims are two separate nations
because their religion, culture, history and way of life are quite distinct
from each other. In this way we can say this great hero and reformer, the real
founder of Pakistan.
Sir Syed passed away on 27 March 1898 but his
work was continued by Nawab Mohsin-ul-Mulk. Due to the Sir Syed's efforts the
Muslims emerged as a separate identity

Two
Nation Theory
Friendsmania.net
Introduction
The Two Nation theory in its simplest way means
the cultural, political, religious, economic and social dissimilarities between
the two major communities, Hindus and Muslim of the Sub Continent. These
differences of out look, in fact, were greatly instrumental in giving rise to
two distinct political ideologies which were responsible for the partition of
India into two independent states.
The Basis of the Creation of Pakistan
The Two Nation Theory was the basis of the
struggle for creation of Pakistan which held that Hindus and Muslims are two
separate nations. They in spite of living together for centuries could not
forget their individual culture and civilization.
There are a few factors which split the
inhabitants of the Sub Continent into two nations. Let us examine each of them
separately.
Religious Differences
Islam preaches Tawheed (Oneness of Allah) and
believes in equality of man before law. Muslims are the believers of God, the
Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H), the Holy book Quran and hold a cohesive approach
towards life.
Hinduism, on the other hand is based on the
concept of multiple Gods. Their society follows a caste system and is divided
into four classes and has a very narrow approach towards life.
Hindu Nationalism
The Hindu nationalist leaders totally ignored
the great contribution made by the Muslims in the Indian society by way of
promoting education and other social activities. Their writings and ideas
flared up the communal discord between Hindus and Muslims to further pollute
the political condition.
@import "/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
Cultural Differences
Muslim followed the Islamic culture, while
Hindus inherited a self build culture. The Hindus burnt their dead bodies while
Muslim burred them. Hindus considered the 'Mother Cow' as a sacred animal and
worshiped it while Muslims slaughtered it. They performed 'Sati' while Muslims
abhorred this tradition.
Social Differences
The two communities of the Sub-Continent differ
in their social life as well as the clothes the foods, the household utensils,
the layout of homes, the words of salutation, the gestures and every thing
about them was different and immediately pointed to the distinctive origin.
Economic Differences
After 1857, the Muslim economic was crushed. The
Muslims were thrown out of Government services and their estates and properties
were confiscated, while the Hindus were provided with ample opportunities to
progress economically.
Educational Differences
The Hindus had advanced in the educational field
because they quickly and readily took to the English education. While Muslims
did not receive modern education which heavily affected their economic
conditions.
Political Differences
the political differences between the Hindus and
Muslims have played an important role in the development and evolution of the
Two Nation Theory.
Hindi Urdu Controversy
In 1867, the Hindus demanded that Urdu should be
written in Hindi Script instead of Persian script. This created another gap
between Hindus and Muslims.
Congress Attitude
The Indian National Congress was founded in
1885. It claimed to represent all communities of India but oppressed all Muslim
ideas and supported the Hindus.
Partition of Bengal
In 1905, the partition of Bengal ensured a
number of political benefits for the Muslims but the Hindus launched an agitation
against the partition and partition was annulled in 1911.
Language
The Muslim and Hindus wrote and spoke two
different languages. The Muslim spoke Urdu and it was written in Arabic Script.
On the other hand, the Hindi language was spoken by Hindus and it was written
in Sanskrit.

Sir Syed Ahmed - The Pioneer of Two Nation Theory
The entire freedom movement revolved around the
two nation theory which was introduced by Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. He considered
all those lived in India as one nation and was a great advocate of Hindu-Muslim
unity. Speaking at the meeting of nation and was a great advocate of
Hindu-Muslim unity. Speaking at the meeting of nation and was a great advocate
of Hindu-Muslim unity. Speaking at the meeting of Indian Association he said:
"I look to both Hindus and Muslims with the same eyes and consider
them as my own eyes. By the word 'Nation' I mean only Hindus and Muslims and
nothing else. We Hindus and Muslims live together on the same soil under the
same government. Our interests and problems are common, and therefore, I
consider the two factions as one nation."
Two Nation Theory in the View of Allama Iqbal
Allama Iqbal was the first important figure who
propounded the idea of separate homeland on the basis of two nation theory. In
the annual session of Muslim League at Allahabad in 1930, he said:
"India is a continent of human beings belonging to different
languages and professing different religions ... I, therefore, demand the
formation of consolidated Muslim state in the best interests of the Muslims of
India and Islam."
Quaid-e-Azam's Statement on Two Nation Theory
He expounded the two nation's theory in such
detail that most Muslims and even some Hindus came to believe in its truth. He
declared:
"Muslims are not a minority; they are one nation by every definition
of the word nation. By all canons of international law we are a nation."
Quaid-e-Azam reiterated that Hindus and Muslims
could ever evolve a common nationality was an idle dream.
In 1973, he said:
"Hindustan is neither one country, nor its inhabitant's one nation.
This is sub continent which consists of many nations of which the Hindus and
Muslims are two major nation."
Conclusion
Two nation theory is the basis of the creation
of Pakistan because without it Pakistan would not come into being on 14th
August, 1947

The Mujahideen Movement

movement in the North of India; this movement is known as "The Mujahideen
Movement" or "The Movement o Jihad". This movement arranged a
power for the struggle of freedom in Muslims which produced a spirit of
survival and they started freedom struggle.
Background of the Mujahideen Movement
Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi selected a particular
way on the command of his spiritual guide Shah Abdul Aziz and devoted himself
in the preparation of the holy war. He started a national movement for this
purpose in 1818 and organized this movement after is arrival from Hajj as the
Mujahideen Movement in 1831.
Objectives of Mujahideen Movement
He wanted to make the Muslims as the true lover
of Islam, for this purpose he started the Mujahideen Movement.
The main objectives of the Mujahideen Movement
were following;
- To preach unicity of Almighty Allah.

Muslims to pass their lives simply according to the teachings of Islam.
- To protect the Muslims against such acts and ideas
which are contrary to Islamic values.
- To protect the Muslims from the worship of other things
except Allah.
- To preach Jihad because it was not possible to get
freedom from evil force without armed struggle.
Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi
wanted to eliminate the domination of Sikhs in Punjab and N.W.F.P to revive
Islamic values and traditions.
He started Jihad in the Punjab and N.W.F.P. Shah
Ismail Shaheed along with six thousand followers also joined Syed Ahmed in his
Jihad against evil forces. Syed Ahmed toured different areas around Delhi and
Punjab, where number of his followers joined him.
Struggle of Mujahideen Movement
The Mujahideen Movement was started against the
Sikhs. He came to Sindh in 1826 and sought to help Syed Sibghatullah Shah Pir
Pagara. Syed Sibghatullah Shah Pir Pagara sent a strong contingent of this
staunch followers called "Hurs". Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi left his
family under the protection of Pir Pagara and proceeded towards Jihad without
any worry about his family. Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi reached Nowshehra after
passing though Afghanistan, the Khyber Pass and Peshawar in December 1826 and
made it his headquarter. The first battle against hte Sikhs was fought on
December 21, 1826 near Akora. The Sikhs were defeated. The second battle was
fought at Hazro. It was also won by the Muslims. These victories inspired a
number of Pathan tribes to join Jihad Movement. The number of Mujahideen rose
to 80,000. Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi was given the status of
"Amir-ul-Momineen". Islamic laws were enforced in the area which was
controlled by Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi.
The movement of the Holy war was initially very
successful but soon conspiracies began against Syed Ahmed, Maharaja Ranjid
Singh (1780-1839) bribed Sardar yar Mohammad and his brother Sultan Mohammad
Khan to plot against the Khilafat of Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi. The disloyalty
of the tribal leaders disheartened him. He made Balakot as is new headquarter.
He started his struggle from Muzaffarabad. Here a tough fight started between
the Mujahideen and the Sikhs. The Muslims fought with heroism but Syed Ahmed
and his right hand companions were martyred on 6th May1831. In short, the
Mujahideen movement of Syed Ahmed failed in Balakot, but this movement kindled
a flame of freedom in sub-continent. The political work of Syed Ahmed Brelvi
was carried on later by Willayat Ali of Patna. When the British captured the
Punjab then a battle was fought again against the British. Thus the Jihad
movement of Syed Ahmed Shaheed Brelvi was ended after several wars like this
for independence

Making in Pakistan - Evolution of Constitution
Friendsmania.net
The Meaning and Importance of Constitution
Constitution is the collection of those basic
principles and laws which explain the rights of the citizens, powers of
different departments and their mutual relations. The constitution is the
backbone of any country. The country is like a trust for the life, and
protection of people of the country. It protects the rights of citizens and
proves helpful in running the system of a country in an organized way.
Government of India Act 1935
Government of India Act, 1935 was enforced with
little changes and amendments at that time when Pakistan was newly born. The
aim was to run the government temporarily till the constitution is made. India
Act was prepared by English and this could not fulfill our needs according to
our national requirements and interests.
Objective Resolution
The first step towards constitution making in
Pakistan was taken in March 1949 when our first legislative council sanctioned
Objective Resolution. Liaquat Ali Khan was the Prime Minister of Pakistan. This
resolution is the base of our constitution, it is said that Allah is the
supreme power and citizens of Pakistan will use it within limits of Quran and
Sunnah. No constitution can be practiced in Pakistan which goes against the
injunctions of Islam. It is the duty of the government to make arrangements for
the Muslims of Pakistan to lead their lives according to the rules of Quran and
Sunnah.
Preparation of Constitution
It was hoped that the constitution will be mae
within one and a half years after the sanction of Objective Resolution but
unfortunately it could not happen. There were other reasons along with the
murder of Liaquat Ali Khan. First Legislative Assembly made committee named the
Committee of Basic Principles. Instead other sub-committees were also formed.
But objective was not achieved and the process of constitution making became
very slow.
Secondary Legislative Assembly
On 21st December, 1954 Governor-general of
Pakistan Ghulam Mohammad dissolved the Legislative Assembly and the elections
of second Legislative Assembly in 1955 were held in an indirect way. This new
assembly started the work of constitution making once again.

Effects of Climate
Friendsmania.net
The effect of Climate of Humans
Climate effects lives very much. The dress, way
of living, food, professions, plays, customs adn economic life of any country
dependes upon its climate and other conditions of weather. Pakistan is very
vast in area so different regions differ a lot in their climate, due to this
difference of climate the hobbies, professions and way of living of Pakistani
people have a large difference.
Northern Mountain region and winter season
In the north it is too cold and the temperature
falls below freezing point 0 degree C and some regions have snowfall. In these
regions cold has effected the human and animal lives. In winter the growth of
grass and other plants stops. Grass is pressed by ice. The leaves of trees
falls and the region is covered with snow. At some places teh river and pond
water also freezes.
The Activity of Work
In this intence cold people leaves their out a
side works and has a stay in their houses. There is neither any play nor any
bussiness due to blockage of passages by snowfall. The people here collect food
and other things of need for themselves and their animals for this period. Most
of the people of this, region go on plains during inter and come back in
summer.
North Mountain Region and Summer Season
The condition here is changed by the arrival of
summer. The regions become green by the growth of grass and trees. The weather
become pleasant. The fountains of clear water and stream add to teh beauty of
this region.
Activity of Work
There is a large activity in summer everywhere.
People become busy in their work outside the house. Irrigation start and children
young men are seen active in their work so that they become able to get their
crops before winter. Trade and other bussiness starts. Everyone tries to save
something for winter season.
Foreign Jobs
The people of these areas are hardworking, brave
and strong. Because the jobs in the northern mountain areas are less so a large
number of people not only do jobs in different parts of Pakistan but also in
foreign countries. They not only earn their livings by hard work but also bring
foreign exchange to Pakistan.
Jobs in Armed Forces
These people play active role in Pakistan Army
due to their bravery and have won name in wars.
Heavy Dress
Because of intence cold, the people of this area
wear heavy and silky dress.
Hardworking
There is vast plain area of Pakistan in the
south of northern mountain region. The climate of this plain is very intense.
It is very cold in winter and very hot in summer. Due to its intense kind of
climate these people have much patience in the intencse heat the people of this
region grow crops and trees. These people start their work early in the morning
and work late till night.
Rest in the Afternoon
These people feel it necassary to take in the
afternoon to become fresh.
Fruits and Crops
The soil and climate of these regions is
suitable for cultivation, so crops are grown in both summer and winter. A large
amount of fruit crops, grain is produced. Due to this the people of this area
are prosperous.
Highly Populated Areas
These areas are highly populated. Means of
transportation are abundant. Education and other necessities of life are
available. Most of the people are farmers. Many people also do government jobs.
The people of this region also do trade and jobs in industries.
People of Deserts
The southern parts which include Bahawalpur,
Khanpur, Mianwali and Muzafargarh are desert like. These are very hot areas in
summer. Storms come and mounds af sand change their place from time to time.
People save them from heat by wearing thick clothes and hide their head with
cap or cloth. The winter season is very short.
Journey in the Night
People do not travel in the daytime. They travel
at night in the form of caravans and the bells of their camels can be heard.
Breading the Cattle
Cultivation is done in those areas where canal
water is available. The other regions where there is little rainfall, ordinary
grass and bushes grow. Here goats and cattle are bread. These people walk from
place to place in search of grass and water.
Balochi People
The climate of regions of Balochistan Plateau is
very intense. Winter is much cold and there is snowfall here. These people do
the work of handicrafts while sitting in their houses in the winter. Balochi
women are very expert in emboidery of glasswork. Some people leave this area in
winter and return back in summer. The people of Balochistan wear loose clothes
and use turban.
Irrigation by Karays
The regions of little rain are irrigated by
water of heavy rain stored under ground house. These are called Karays. Because
these houses are underground so they do not let water to absorb in the oil or
evaporate.
Modern Steps
In regions where underground water is not
available the government is making arrangments of tube-wells. The water of
fountains is also saved from going waste. These steps have given benefits to
certain areas for irrigation and cultivation. The cold and dry climate of this
plateau is suitable for the growth of fruits.
Meadows and Green Regions
There is usually the shortage of water in
regions of Balochistan. This is the reason that water of natural fountains and
reservoirs is considered precious. The meadows and green part of this area are
very important. The people pay special attention in breeding goat and cattle.
They are brave, hardworking and intelligent.
Professions
Climate has also its effect on human profession.
Agriculture is the main profession due to fertile lands of Punjab. The
agriculture system is not good in some regions of Jhelum and Rawalpindi,
therefore people of these areas prefer military jobs. Here military job is give
importance. The people of coastal region are boatmen and fisherman. The people
of the frontier do jobs for a short time due to intense cold and snowfall.
Their women earn their livings by sewing clothes doing embroidery and
handicrafts while the men migrate to different regions to do manual labour. The
people of regions where grass and bushes grow breed goats and cattle. They deal
in Cotton and do trade. Agriculture regions also progressing from industrial
point of view.
Way of Living
Climate effects way of living very much. There
is much work of wood in the construction of houses in the regions of heavy
rainfall and roofs of these are made in the form of slopes in the lower parts
of Sindh where moisture-laden airflows people have made their chambers. In
karachi many story buildings are constructed according to its climate. In
deserts people live in small tents. In this way, the way of living in Punjab,
Frontier and Balochistan is different from each other.
Dress
Climate effects the dress of a region very much.
In Punjab villagers use khaddar in winter and thin clothes in summer. People of
Frontier due to intense cold wear long and thick clothes. They cover the head
with turban. The people of Thar and deserts cover their head with turban and
its one part is used to save the neck. In the same way Sindhi and Balochi wear
particular dresses. The women of different regions wear different types of
dresses

Environmental
Pollutants
Friendsmania.net
Natural Environment
Physical or natural environment is very
essential for the prosperity of life on earth. Natural environment means air
water and all these things which are essentials for some form of life.
Necassary for a Healthy Life
Clean air to breathe pure water to drink and
food free for impurities are necassary for a healthy life.
Unnecassary Changes in Natural Environment
The unsuitable or unnecassary changes in natural
environment can be dangerous for the properity of life. Polluted air, dusty
water and impure food etc are injurious to human health.
The Present Condition of World
Now a day the whole world is facing the
dangerous problem of environmental pollution. The smoke from cars and
factories, solid waste, horn or any such noise are the causes of environment
pollution.
Effects of Pollutants
Let us now examine the effects of pollutants in
air, water, soil and food etc
Air
Composition of Air
The air is composed of nitrogen, oxygen and
carbon dioxide etc. These are the bases of existence of every form of life on
earth. The oxygen in the air is essential for our life. Where as other gas are
necassary for animal and plant life also
Food
Climate also effects our food. The people of
mountains use meat, barley and fruit. They need must food to save their body
from cold. The people of Punjab use milk, curd and lassi. The main portion of
the food of the people living near coastal areas is fish. In the same way there
is a large difference of food of villagers and the people living in cities.
Pollutants are Increasing
With the increase in population of the world use
of fossil fuel or power resoures like coal, oil etc has increased. By burning
these fossil fuels the pollution has increased in the air. Therefore, increase
in population and industrial development, environment especially air is being
effected.
Water
Water is also necassary as like air. We should
drink clean and pure water. In 20th century with the industrial revolution and
increase in population the use of water has increased. But now a day the
availability of pure water to drink has become difficult.
Contaminates of water
Water has been contaminated by different types
of germs, bacteria, virus and other chemicls. So by the use of contaminated
water the diseases of stomach are spreading. Insecticides not only damage the
soil but they contaminate the food crops and vegetables. Different kinds of
fertilizers increase the yield of crops but the upper layer of soil and
increase the quantity of chemicals in the production.
Problem of Water Logging and Salinity
In those areas, where rainfall is the irrigation
system has made the cultivation of land possible. Due to canal system a large
amount of water is absorbed by the ground that raises the level of underground water.
This brings the salt of the soil out and effects the fertility of the land and
a problem of water logging and salinity is increased. Therefore it is necassary
that canals should be cemented to avoid the seepage of water by the ground.
Tube wells should be installed so that the ground water level can be lowered in
these effected areas.
Planted Trees
More trees should be planted on the sides of
tides and canals to avoids the flow of soil and decrease the salinity.
Polluted Water of Wastage Material
The polluted water of urban and industrial areas
is drained to the rivers and canals. This contaminated water irrigates the
agricultural land and gives very harmful results. So this industrial and
sewerage water should be recycled and then pumped into the rivers and canals.
The strict laws made by the government are not enforced strictly to avoid the
disasters.
Wastage Material
At this time out of 50 thousand tones of solid
waste produced daily only 20-50 percent is transported to clumps properly. Rest
of the solid waste becomes the part of water, soil and air etc and damages the
life.
To Control this Issue
Government feels that pollution is harmful for
human health. Therefore, National Conservation Strategy (NCS) is working for
improvement of environment. The main focus is on the improvements of the
institutions, legislation and environment awareness among the people,
plantation and marine pollution management. The government of Pakistan has
allocated more than Rs.287 million rupees for this purpose to control this
issue

Situation of Pakistan
Pakistan is situated in the north of tropic of
cancer. Pakistan is a sub-tropical country. It is situated in the western part
of the monsoon region. Some of the areas in the north of Pakistan is warm and
mist, whereas the mountainous area have highland type climate.
Pakistan is divided into following regions on
the basis of its climate.
1. Sub-Tropical Continental highland
2. Sub-Tropical Continental plateau
3. Sub-Tropical Continental lowland
4. Sub-Tropical Coast land
Sub-Tropical Continental higland
It includes Pakistan's northern mountain ranges
(outer and central Himalayas), north-western mountain ranges. (Waziristan, Zobe
and Loralai) and the mountain ranges of Balochistan (Quetta, Sara waft, Central
Makran and Jalawan). Here the winter is extremely cold, normally there is
snowfall. Summer season is quite cool and in spring and winter seasons there is
mostly fog and rainfall.
Sub-Tropical Continental plateau
In this climate region most of the parts of
Balochistan are included. From may to the mid of september hot and dusty winds
continuously blow. Sibbi and Jacobabad are located in this region. There are a
few rainfall during the month of January and February (normally 5 cm). Extreme
hot, dry and dusty winds are important characteristics of this region.
Sub-Tropical Continental lowland
This climated region includes the upper Indus
plain (Punjab Province) and lower Indus plain (Sindh Province). Summer is very
hot. The north of Punjab receives less rainfall. Winter rainfall situation is the
same. In teh Thai, Kachhi, Sibbi and south-eastarn plains and dry and a large
area in desert. The Peshawar plain experience thunder storms and dust storms
during summer.
Sub-Tropical Coastland
This climate region includes the coastal areas
of Sindh and Balochistan province or the southern part of Pakistan. The
temperature is moderate. The different between maximum and minimum temperature
is less. There is inflow of sea breeze throughout the summer and the humidity
is high. Annual average temperature is 32 degree C and rainfall is 18 cm. May
and June are the honest months. The plain of Lasbela receives rainfall both in
summer and winter seasons. pakistan is situated in monsoon type of climate.
There are extreme variations in the temperature. A major part of Pakistan lies
at a great distance from the sea

Plains of Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Plain Area
This plain is spread, in the South of Slat Range
and in the East of Suleiman Range and Kirthur Mountain which is spread up to
the Arabian Sea. This region is irrigated by river Indus, Ravi, Jhelum, Sutleg
and Chenab. Hence it is called the indus plain. The point of Mithan Kot all
other reivers join Indus. The plain above Mithan Kot is called the upper Indus
plain. The upper part of river Indus is made of teh soil brouth by rivers. So
it is very fertile. There are a few rainfalls in it. There is a long chain of
canals spread in this area which is unique in the world. Due to these effects
good crops are produced over here. In this plain some hills are seen near
Chiniot and Sangla Hill. These are not so high to obstruct roads and canals for
irrigation. In the West of river Jhelum there is a desert of Thai. This is now
irrigated by canals coming from Jinriah Barrage. Due to which a large part of
Thai has been populated. There are many Doabas in this region, For Example Ban
Doab, Singh, Sagar Doab, Neli Bar in district Multan and Sahiwal, Gunji Bar and
Kuruta Bar. As soon as we go away teh plain became higher and higher. This
raised region plain called Daras. In the north of Daras, the plains of Bannu
and Peshawar are very fertile. Good crops are found here due to canals and tube
wells. The important crops of its region are wheat, rice, cotton, sugar cane,
tobacco and oil seeds.
The Lower Indus Plain
The region in the south of Mizhan Kot to the
Arabian Sea is called the lower Indus Plain. It includes the most part of Sindh
Province. This plain is very fertile. In the North of sindh many canals have
been dug due to which good crops are produced. The people of this region are
becoming rich day by day.The central part of sindh has been irrigated by canals
to a large extent, but the eastern part is still desert. It is called the
desert of Thar many arrangements are being made for teh progress of this
region. Near Thatha, rever indus starts making Delta and is divided into many
branches which afterwards fall in the Arabian Sea. During rainy season most of
its part is flooded with water and bring large destruction.
Deserts
The south eastern part of Pakistan consists of
deserts. This area includes the district of Bahawalpur, Sukkur, khairpur,
Sanghar, Mir Pur Khas and Tharparkar. Following are main deserts of Pakistan.
Cholistan
The area which is situated in Bahawalpur is
called Cholistan.
Kharan
This desert is situated in the North West of
Balochistan province. Which is called Desert of Kharan. Deserts are unpopulated
and barren due to less rainfall.
Coastal Plain
The length of coastal plain of Pakistan is about
700 kilometers which starts from the border of Sindh with an Indian and ends at
Pakistan and Iran in the West. The coastal areas of Pakistan are very important
due to its geographical situation. Also the possibility of mineral oil in the
sea has increased the importance of coastal regions. That is why the government
is giving more importance to the progress of these areas.
Plateau
The area which consists of ridges trough basin
plains and dessected plains is known as Plateau.
Pothohar Plateau
In the north of Pothohar Plateau, there are Kala
Chitta and Margalla Hills. In the south of Salt Range river Jhelum flows in the
east and river Indus in the west. The chain of Salt Range starts from the
mountains of Tilla Jogian and Bakrala hills on the bank of river Jhelum. These
chains runs for some distance along the river and then in the west after
passing through Bannu meet with suleiman mountain. The average height of Salt
Range is 700 meters. In district sakasar its height becomes 1,500 meters. This
is the reason of pleasant weather over here. Although the mountains of salt
range are barren but are full or mineral wealth where the reservoirs of salt,
gypsum, stone of calcium and coal are present. The famous Khewra Mine of salt
is also here. In the north of Salt range is the plateau of Potwar its height is
300-600 meter. The land here is dry and stony. At certain place cultivation is
done. Here the reserves of kersone oil are found. Two important rivers flow
here. Among them rivers Swan is the larger one. Its valley is called Swan
Valley and its famous for old civilization. The name of the second river is
river Hurd. These two rivers flow from East to West and fall in river Indus.
Balochistan Plateau
This plateau is located in Balochistan in the
south of coastal Makran range. Siahal range, central makran range Rass range
are important. There height gradually increases from 300 meters to 2000 meters.
In the north of the plateau of Balochistan is Chaghi Range. The famous Khojak
pass is in this range. Toba kakar is in the north east of Balochistan. The
average height of this range is 3000 meters. In the north west of Balochistan,
there are salt lakes. The famous one is Hamun-e-Mashkhel River Gomal, Zhob and
Hingol are important. This plateau is frill of precious metals. There are vast
oil reserves here. Sui gas is dug from its southern part which is a great
blessing of God and Pakistan largely depends upon it for its progress. Here
also lie the reserves of coal, iron and chromites and copper

Mountain Ranges of Pakistan
Introduction
The physical features of Pakistan are no similar
everywhere. It means that the land of Pakistan is different in various regions
from its type. There are chains of high mountains which are covered with snow
throughout the year and also fertile lands and green valleys. There are also
vast deserts in Pakistan. There are three relief (Physical Features) of
Pakistan.
1. Mountains
2. Plains
3. Plateau
Mountains
The part of earth, which is almost 3000 feet
above the sea level and has a broad base, steep slope and a narrow top is
called a mountain. Mountain ranges are divided into two parts in Pakistan.
1. Northern Mountain Range
2. Western Mountain Range
Northern Mountains Range
This range includes the Himalayas, the Karakoram
and the Hindukush mountain ranges
Himalayan Range
Himalaya is surrounded by most of the part of
Pakistan towards North. Himalaya means "the house of ice". These
mountains are spread up to Gilgit. The name of one of its top mountain is Nanga
Parbat. Its height is 8,126 meters. The chain of Himalaya saves our plains from
cold winds of Middle East. They also stop monsoon from Arabian Sea and Bengal
Gulf and becomes the source of rainfall. Their highest tops are covered with
snow. When in spring and summer seasons the snow melts, our rivers are supplied
with abundant water. On their slopes in the south there are forest of precious
wood. The touring resorts of Pakistan like Murree, Nathiagali, Abbottabad and
Kaghan Valley are also situated in these ranges. Thousand of people come here
for recreation. The valley of kashmir is in the heart of these ranges which is
considered the Paradise on Earth.
Karakoram Range
Karakoram is situated in the north of Himalaya
in which Northern Kashmir and the regions of Gilgit are situated. The average
height of Karakoram range is 7,000 meters. Its highest top is K-2 which is
8.611 meters high. The top of its neighbouring Mountains are covered with snow
throughout the year. But in summer the normal life begins and people become
busy in earning their livings. The canals flow fast and green grass grows. This
mountain range lies between Pakistan and China. Here Karakoram Highway (KKH)
has been built along the river Hunza due to which trade between the two
countries has progressed very much.

North Western Mountain Range
Hindukush Range
The Hindukush range lies in the north West of
Karakoram Range. Most of the mountains of this range are in Afghanistan. The
highest top of this range is Tirichimir which is 7690 meters high. In this
range Chitral and Deer are situated. These mountains become the source of tains
in summer season in Pakistan and India.
Western Mountains Ranges
The Koh-e-Sufain
Khyber Pass is situated in the South of river
Kabul which joins Kabul to Peshawar this Pass is an old passage of trade. All the
invaders in olden times entered in the Sub-Continent through this Pass which is
53 km long. Peshawar Cantonment lies close to Khyber Pass the koh-e-Sufaid is
in the South of this Pass. The average heigh of this are covered with snow
throughout the year.That is why it is called Koh-e-Sufaid. River kurram flows
in its south. Trade with Afghanistan is carried out through Kurrahi Pass.
Kohat And Waziristan Hills
Kohat and Waziristan hills are situated between
two rivers i.e. Gomal and Kurram. This mountain range is spread to north-south
direction. River Tochi is an important river of this range. There are many
passes through these mountains. These passes promote cultural and trade ties
between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Tochi and Kurram passes are located in these
hills.
Suleiman Range
Koli Suleiman is in the South of River Gornal.
The highest peak is Tukht-e-Suleiman which is 3,500 meters high. It is a barren
land . It is destroyed due to floods. Government controls flood by constructing
high boundaries. Important place is Bolan at which river Bolan is situated.
Through this path, railway line reaches Quetta after passing through Sibbi.
Kirthar Range
It is in the south of Karakoram range which is
high and dry. The maximum heigh of the Kirthar range is 2150 meters. In its
south river Hub and Lyari flow which fall in the Arabian Sea at karachi.
Salt Range
The chain of Salt Range starts from the
mountains of Tilla Jogian and Bakrala Hills on the bank of river Jhelum. These
chains run for some distance along the river and then in the West after passing
through Bannu meet with the Suleiman Mountain. the average heigh of Slat Range
is 700 meters. In district Skesar its heigh becomes 1,500 meters. The river
Swan is the famous river of this area

Chapter
4 - Land and Climate of Pakistan - Question 1 - Importance of Location of
Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Location of Pakistan
Pakistan is located between 23 degrees.30 North
to 37 degrees North Latitude and 61 degrees East to 77 degrees East Longitude.
China lies in the north of Pakistan while Afghanistan and Iran are in the West
of it. India lies in the East and in the South is Arabian Sea.
The Importance of Location
The location of Pakistan is not only unique in
the world but of special importance in South Asia. Pakistan links the east with
the west. Some important neighbouring countries of Pakistan are as under.
China
There is 600 km long territory of Pakistan along
the border of China. Both countries have political, cultural and trade
relations with each other. A road through Gilgit and Hunza goes to Kashmir, a
city of China. This road has been made culling the hard rocks of mountain
Karakoram. There is a close cooperation between the two countries in heavy
machine industry and many other departments. Silk, cloth, machines etc are
imported from China.
Central Asian Islamic Countries
Pakistan has religious, cultural and economic
relation with the central Asian Islamic Countries. Pakistan is the only country
that provides them the nearest sea route and transport facilities. These
countries lie in the North West of the Pakistan.

Afghanistan
Afghanistan is situated to the West of Pakistan.
When the English got the control of sub-continent, according to a pact with
Afghanistan in 1893, the permanent border between the two countries was marked
which is called Durand Line.
This line is about 2240 kilometers long with the
border between Pakistan and Afghanistan. Both countries have old religious,
cultural and trade terms.
Iran
To the West of Pakistan is the border of Iran
along province of Balochistan. It is our Islamic brother country. Iran was the
first country which recognized the existence of Pakistan in 1947. Iran has made
political and trade pacts known as R.C.D. Its name is E.C.O which means
Discipline for Economic Cooperation. Iran openly helped Pakistan during the
wars of 1965 and 1971. Pakistan proves its friendship with Iran in every hour
of need. Islamic revolution has come in Iran by the end of kingship. It has
also better relations with Pakistan.
India
India is a Hindu country in the East of
Pakistan. There is a common border of 1600 kilometre in between these
countries. Both countries are trying to solve their problems including Kashmir.
Due to this enmity, wars of 1948, 1965 and 1971 have been fought between the
two countries. In the last war, our one wing East Pakistan got separated from
us due to this enmity. India is always busy in conspiracy by the cooperation of
a super power despite of knowing that it is better for the welfare of both
countries to develop pleasant terms .Fifteen crore Muslims live in India. Their
protection is also a big problem.
Trade Through Arabian Sea
Arabian Sea is in Indian Ocean. Most of the
trade between east and west is done through Indian Ocean. Pakistan through
Arabian Sea is linked with the Muslims Countries of Persian Gulf. All of them
are rich in oil. In Karachi Bin Qasim and Gwader are important seaports of
Pakistan. In this respect South-East Asian Muslim countries (Indonesia,
Malaysia, Burunai, Darussalam) and South Asian Muslim countries (Bangladesh,
Maldives and SriLanka) are important. So Pakistan has an important strategic
position in the world

Chapter
5 - Resources of Pakistan - Question 7 - Irrigation and its Importance
Friendsmania.net
Means of Irrigation
Following are the means of irrigation.
Canals
Pakistan is irrigated by five rivers which are
Ravi, Satluj, Jhelum, Chenab and Indus. From these rivers canals have been dug.
These are very suitable canals for two points of view. Firstly, these rivers
come back from ice covered mountains and flow throughout the year. Secondly,
they have the same slope.
Wells
Rainwater which goes down in our land is
collected in the rocks below. In this way a large reserve of water is formed
down in the earth. Wells are made to use this water for irrigation. In Punjab a
large number of wells have been dug, especially in Tehsil Shakarghar (District
Narowal), Gujrat, Lahore and Dera Ghazi Khan Districts. Adequate Irrigation is
done by wells. In the valley of Peshawar also irrigation is done by wells. Due
to enough rainfall water is not low therefore wells are easily dug.
Tube Wells
In the villages where the facility of
electricity is available water is drawn out by electric pumps. In this way more
water is obtained from wells. So we get more benefits by tube wells.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
Dams/Ponds
At many places water collected in ponds. Rain
water is collected in them and is used in the hours of need. In the same way in
mountain areas, small dams are made to stop water in small canals. Then small
canals are dug to bring this water in the fields. These dams are made in less
high areas. At some distance from Islamabad, Rawal Dam is made in the same way.
By making many such dams in Punjab in the districts of Attock, Rajanpur and
Dera Ghazi Khan the deficiency of water has been removed. Similar types of
other dams are in provinces of Frontier and Balochistan.
Karez
In Pakistan Balochistan is more hot and dry.
There is little rainfall small canals become dry in summer due to intencse
heat. For irrigation underground houses are made to save water from being
absorbed and evaporated. Water is drawn out with the help of Persian wheels and
brought to fields.
Importance of Irragation
Irrigation means the artificial way of watering
the crops. Irrigation is very important for Pakistan.We have little rainfall
therefore we get the help of irrigation in preparing our crops. The progress of
our country depends upon the means of irrigation and their progress. All parts
except northern mountains depends upon irrigation. 67% of our land is irrigated
due to little rainfall. The most important means of our irrigation is our
system of canals. Our canals irrigate 70% of our lands while 14% is left for
tube-wells, Persian wheels Karez and ponds

Natural Resources
The economic development of a country totally
depends upon natural resources. The exploitation of natural resources and their
usefulness depends upon the efforts of human beings.
Population of Pakistan
The population of Pakistan has gone beyond 150
millions which has made Pakistan seven biggest country in the world. To meet
the needs of growing population we have to increase our agricultural
production.
Self Sufficient
By the grace of Allah our economy is progressing
to gain self sufficiency. Moreover some excess production of grains is exported
to earn foreign exchange.Education is required to be developed on modern,
lines. Modern techniques and research can accelerate the progress of
agriculture and industry.
OverCome to Over-Crowed Population
The alarming situation is the rate of growth of
population which is more than that of the production of natural resources. This
thing effects the economic growth of the country. Through accelerated
exploitation of existing energy resources, we can promote economy of the
country

Canals of Pakistan
River Indus, Jhelum and Chenab are the math
sources of water for Pakistan. These rivers have maximum quantity of water during
summer but minimum during winter season 84% of the total water flows in these
rivers in summer.
The Canals of River Ravi
Upper Ban Doab and lower Ban Doab are two
important canals of river Ravi. These canals are very important for the
production of summer crops. The upper Bari Doab is and old canal which was
constructed in 1868.
The Canals of River Chenab
The upper Chenab and lower Chenab irragate the
area of Rachna Doab. The haveli system of canals is also located in this Doab
that comes out from Trimmu Head Works.
The Canals of River Jhelum
Chaj Doab has two important canals i.e. upper
Jhelum and lower Jhelum. These canals irrigate a large part of the Triple Canal
Project and have increased agricultural production. These two canals along with
lower Ban Doab link the three rivers i.e. Jhelum Chenab and Ravi.
The Canals of River Sutlej
There are three Head Works on river Sutlej i.e.
Feroze-Wala, Sulaimanki and Islam, whereas fourth is on the Puhjnad. These
canals irrigate the area of Nili Bar and Bahawalpur.
The Canals of River Indus
The canals from Jinnah Barrage near Kalabagh
irrigate the desert area of Thar for agricultural purpose. Districts of D.G.
Khan and D.I. Khan are irrigated by a link canal from Chashma barrage, Taunsa
barrage and Guddu barrage also have canals which irrigate vast areas. Following
are imporatant canals from river Indus for NWFP.
1. The Canal of River Swat.
2. The Canal from Swat River Irrigates.
3. The Peshawar area.
4. The Warsak Project.
A project in the north west of Peshawar at
Warsak is important for the local requirments of the region.

Agricultural
problems in Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Pakistan is basically an agricultural country
and agriculture has a central position in the economy of the country. While
pointing at the faults we describe certain reforms.
Old Types of Agricultural Instruments
In small field's modern equipment cannot be
used. Due to poverty we cannot use modern equipment. Tractors are not commonly
used. We do not know much about modern equipments and scientific methods of
agriculture hance production per acre less.
Reforms
Our farmers should know about the modern
research in the field and should adopt modern scientific methods of
agriculture.
Lack of Agricultural Education
Due to lack of modern education, our farmers use
old methods and equipments. They do not use new seeds and fertilizers.
Reforms
Farmers should be educated through print and
electronic media about agriculture.
Limited Area
The reason of less agricultural production is
that our farmers have little amount of land. This is because the number of
farmers is increasing with the increase in population.
Reforms
The scattered pieces of land should be converted
into big units.
Barren Land
There is very little rainfall in our country. It
rainfall is in the time and enough we can get enough crops.
Reforms
There should be introduced reforms in the system
of irrigation. New canals should be dug.
Problems of Water Logging and Salinity
It is the major problem of Pakistan especially
in certain parts of Sindh. Most parts of Sindh are suffering from this disease.
According to an estimate about one lac acre land has become useless due to this
problem.
Reforms
There should be planned programmes on national
level to reduce this danger.
Insects and Crop Disease
In our lands insects and crops diseases destroy
plenty of our crops.
Reforms
Pesticides should be sprayed at the proper time.
There should be research work on drops to control these diseases.
Cutting Action on Land
It happens due to storms and heavy rainfall.
Reforms
There should be special arrangements for this
problem and chemical fertilizers should be used to enhance the fertility of the
soil.
Inferior Seeds and Fertilizers
Our farmers are not familiar with the methods of
preserving seeds and using the right amount of fertilizers.
Shortage of Money
Due to lack of money average production is much
effected. Our farmers are under the influence of loans so they cannot give full
intention to their props. They are always worried about the return of loans.
Reforms
If our farmers get loan on less credit and on
easy soft conditions.
Zamindara System
This system in Pakistan has many defects. Land
owners hand over their land to tenant who do not take interest in producing
more crops. They link that the main part of their crop will be taken by the
owner of the land. This effects our average produce very badly.
Reforms
Landlords should take interest in the bussiness.
Tenants should be given proper profit and right.
Lack of Medical Facilities
Our farmers is often found suffering from
certain medical problems. He is often offering from various diseases due to low
standard of living.
Reforms
There must be enough hospitals in the village
from the farmers should get proper medical facilities.
Transportation Problems
By insufficient means of transportation farmers
cannot bring their production to markets at the right time.
Reforms
Means of transportation should be improved and
go downs in a large number are being constructed

Minerals of Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Important Minerals
There are three types of minerals.
Metallic Minerals
1. Iron ore.
2. Chromites.
3. Copper etc.
Non-Metallic Minerals
1. Rock Salt.
2. Limestone.
3. Gypsum.
4. Marble, Gemstone, China Clay, Fire Clay,
Sulphure etc.
Power Resource Minerals
1. Coal.
2. Natural Gas.
3. Crude Oil etc.
Coal
We have not yet discovered coal which can be
used in engines. It is mostly used in manufacturing Calcium Carbonate and
bricks. Some coal is also used in homes. We have got coal from various spots
places but it is not of good quality. It fulfils 10% of our needs.
Places
The biggest mines of coal is Salt Ranges in
Kohistan in the region of Makarwat in Punjab. In these regions coal is also
found in Dundot and Pudh. Like Makarwal some mines are such whose tunnels are
about nine miles long. In the province of Balochistan many reservoirs are found
at other places. Coalmines are in Sharg, Hoset, Hernai, Sar, Dagari, Sheeren
Aab, Bolan, Aab and Mush. Processing plant is also set in Shargh. In the lower
regions of Sindh mines of Jhimpir and Lakhra are important. Government is in
search of more mines.
Mineral Oil
Minerals oil is very important in modern age. It
is used in factories, industries and transport. Motorcars, tractors, train
truck etc depending upon this oil. It is also used in homes. Average production
of oil in Pakistan cannot meet its needs. We are getting 10% oil for our needs
and the rest of the oil is imported on which we spend a large amount of foreign
exchange. Experts say that at certain we can get oil from the sea. For this
purpose we started digging in 1985 at the coast of our sea in Karachi. At
certain other places are digging our earth. If we succeed we shall satisfy our
need of oil from our our resources.
Places
We are getting oil from Khor, Bhullian, Tut, Kot
Sarug, Miyal, Dherznund (District Attock), Kazian (District Rawalpindi), Dhodak
(District Dera Ghazi Khan), Kursal ( District Jhelum), and Khushkhali (District
Badeen). The oil obtained from Attock, Jhelum and Chakwal districts is refined
in Morgah Refinery near Rawalpindi. Refinery means the industry where crude oil
is refined for different purposes.
Natural Gas
Natural gas is an important discovery. We meet
35% of our need of energy from this gas. This gas is brought in Lahore,
Karachi, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Sialkot, Peshawar and other cities by means of
pipelines. This gas is used in Industries and also in our homes as fuel. Fine
type of fertilizer is prepared in Multan by using this gas. This gas is aslo
used in manufacturing Rayon thread and Chemical materials.
Places
The reservoirs of natural gas are in Sui, Uch,
Zin, Kherpur, Muzrani, Hindi, Kundkot, Sarung, Dhodak, Peerkoh and Dhullian.
Iron Ore
Iran ore is very important for the progress of a
country. We have set up a steel mill in Karachi with the cooperation of Russia.
In Pakistan, iron is not of good quality so it is imported to meet our needs.
Places
The biggest reservoir of iron is found in Kala
Bagh. Some are also found in Chitral, Khuzdar, Chulgari and Muslim Bagh. Iron obtained
from Chitral and Nokundi is of good quality. Our iron fulfills only 16% of our
needs.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
Copper
It is used in manufacturing electric goods
especially electric wires. In past it was only used in making coins and
utensils.
Places
Its reservoirs are in provinces of Balochistan
and Frontier. In Balochistan it is found in Saindak, Chaghi and some other
places. These reservoirs are refined by progressive corporation of natural
resources. Corporation is working on this plan with cooperation of foreign
experts. The work has been started on crude metal in Saindak and Karachi
Laboratory.
Saindak Copper Project
In Balochistan, large deposits of copper, gold
and silver have been discovered at saindak, Chagai and Amuri. The economy of
Pakistan is depended on these projects. China is collaborating with Pakistan on
these projects. According to an estimate saindak will give annual production as
below.
Copper = 16,000 Tones
Gold = 1.5 Tones
Silver = 2.75 Tones
Chromite
It is a white metal which is used to make iron.
It is also used in manufacturing certain instruments, aero planes and colours.
It is also used in the art of photography. It is exported to get large amount
of foreign exchange.
Places
Its reservoirs are the biggest of the world in
found Pakistan. Theses reservoirs are found in Muslim Bagh. Small reservoirs
are found in Chaghi, Kharan, Malakand, Mehmund and North Waziristan.
Rock Salt (Non-Metallic)
Pakistan has vast reserves of salt. It is used
in various eatables, the biggest is Khewra Mine. The area of this mine is about
10500 square meters. It is producing high quality of salt from centuries.
Another mine is in Khushah. We aslo get salt from mines of Kala Bagh, Jutta and
Bahadur Khail. We get salt from seawater near Maripur and Coast of Makran. This
sea salt is used to preserve fish and is in some industrial uses. The annual
production during the year 2000-01 was 1275 tonnes.
Lime Stone
Limestone is very useful raw material for cement
industry. It is found in the northern and western mountain areas of Pakistan
mostly. Large deposits are found in Daudthail, Wah, Rohri, Hyderabad and
Karachi. The annual production of limestone is 9.9 thousand tonnes.
Gypsum
It is a bright stone of white colour. It is an
important wealth of our country. It is used in manufacturing cement, chemical
fertilizer and plaster of Paris, Sulphuric Acid and Ammonium Sulphate. It is
also used in small industries. The annual production of Gypsum is 358.5
thousand tonnes approximately.
Places
It is obtained from Salt range and western
mountainous areas of Pakistan. The important mines of Gypsum are in Khewra,
Dandot, Daudkhail, Rohri and Kohat.
Marble
It is a very beautiful stone of white or black
colour. It is used in the floores or walls of building to make them attractive
and beautiful. A large quantity of white and black marble is found in Cambelpur
near Faith Jung in Kala Chitta Hills. District Muzaffarabad and Mirpur of Azad
Kashmir are other important areas where marble is found. The annual production
of marble is 586.6 thousand tonnes.
Places
In our country marble is of various types. The
best in Khyber Agency at Mullah Gori. It is Swat, Noshera, Hazara, Gilgit and
Chaghi.
Sulphur
It is the necassary part of explosive material.
It is very important for the defence of a country. It is also used in making
Sulphuric Acid and many other chemicals. We get crude Sulphur which is made
useful by our experts. Soon we will be able to meet our needs of Sulphur. After
cleaning Sulphur, it is also used chemical industries. Industries are being set
up in Quetta and Karachi.
Places
Its reserves are found in Koh-e-Sultan (District
Chaghi) and (District Karachi).
China Clay
China clays is found in Mangora (District Swat)
and Nagar Parkar (Sindh).
Fire Clay
It is used in making strong bricks which is used
in Kiln of bricks.
Places
It is found in Kohistan Nimak and Kala Citta
Hills. Its reserves also are found in Swat, Hazara and Malakand. In Pakistan
clay making Chini utensils are also found. This clay is also used in making
tiles and sanitary ware. Its reserves are in Swat, Hazara and Malakund.
Calcium Carbonate
It is used in manufacturing cement, sugar and
certain other materials. It is also used for the preparation of white wash
stone by burning it.
Places
Its reservoirs are found in several parts of our
country. Its vast reservoirs are Dandot, Daudkhail, Wah, Rohri, Hyderabad and
Karachi

Forest department of Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Role of Forests Department
Government has formed Forests Department for
looking after forests and preparing new forests and due to it there is a good
increase in the number of forests every year. Forests are necassary for the
economic progress of a progress. According to experts 25% area of a country
should be consisted of forests for a balanced economy. Unfortunately our
forests make 3.6% of the total area of Pakistan which is 19 crore and 70 lac
square acre forests cover an area of 72 lac acres. By decrease in the amount of
water, the vegetation decreases gradually.
Our Government is trying to increase the forests
and has taken following steps.
1. Establishing nurseries in all big cities
where plants are available.
2. Tree plantation weeks.
3. Newspaper, magazines, radio and TV provide
necassary information and guidance to the people and pursue them to plant
trees.

Forest
and their Importance
Friendsmania.net
Types of Forests in Pakistan
Evergreen Forests
There are evergreen forests in northern and
north-western parts of Pakistan, as these areas receive more rainfall.
Beautiful scenes attract human beings. In this way forest are the means of
beauty and attraction. These forest include deodar, firs, blue pine, spruce,
chalghoza, oak, chestnut and walnut are also important. These are found in
Murree, Mansehra, Abbotabad, Chitral, Swat and Dir Hardwood for the making of
furniture is available from these trees.
Foot-Hill Areas Forests
Phulai, Kao, Jand, Acacia, wild olive, black
berry etc are found in the foothill areas of these forests. The district of
Peshawar, Mardan, Kohat, Attock, Rawalpindi, Jhelum and Guj rat are important
in this respect.
Dry-Hill Forests
The dry-hill forests are found at altitude of
about 900 to 3000 meters in Quetta and kalat division of Balochistan. Other
than thorny forests Mazoo, Chaighoza and poplar are important trees.
Miscellaneous Forests
Some of the forests are found in Sukkur, Kotri
and Guido. The forests department plants trees like mulberry, sum bal, dhrek
and eucalyptus along the rivers, canals and railway lines.
Mangrove Forests
Mangrove forests are found along the coastline
from Karachi to Kutch.
Importance of Forests
Forest plan an important role being a natural
resource in the development af a country as explained below.
Slow Melting of Ice and Soil Erosion
Rain and snow in heavy quantity fall on the
northern mountains of Pakistan. These areas are the main source of water of
rivers. The forest also stop soil erosion as they slow down the speed of
rainwater on the slopes of mountains. They also irrigate teh plains regularly.
Forest provide Fuel
Forest provide wood as fuel in place of coal.
They also provide timber, firewood, gum and other useful things which are very
important for the trade of country.
Pleasant Climate
Forest make the climate of an area very pleasant
as they reduce heat and pollution.
Rainfall
Temperature is reduced by forests and air
becomes moist. Rainfall in a region increases due to presence of forests.
Fertility of Soil
Forest keep the soil intact and soil fertility
remains uneffected.
Stopage of sand and silt
Rivers carry huge amount of sand and silt that
fill our dams and lakes and destroy hydroelectric power projects, the presence
of forests stop the sand and silt.
Water Logging and Salinity
Forests are very useful in water logged and
salinity effected areas. Trees absorbs water from the soil and lower water
level of underground reserves. The forests ate useful in stopping of floods and
safety of dams.
Tourism
Forests promote tourism. There are many places
in the northern and north-western mountainious areas of Pakistan. Which are
covered with forests and known for recreations for the peoples.
Wild LIfe
Forests are very important for wild life. In
forests animals of hunting are found from which we get meat. In this way forest
are the source of the hunting and also act as places of recreation.
Employment
Forests provide employment to a large part of
population in Pakistan.
Fruits and Fodder
Forests provide different kinds of fruits and
fodder to animals.
Imporatant role in Economy
Forests plays an important role in the economy
of Pakistan. About five million people are directly or indirectly engaged in
this sector we can get building, wood from forests. This wood is used in
building and also used in the preparation of furniture.
Herbs
The herbs grown in forests are used for the
preparation of medicines

Soil
The upper layer of the earth which is composed
of different thin rock particles is helpful in the growth of vegetation and
plants that is called soil.
Basic Components of Soil
Soil has three basic components.
1. Solid particles like salt, mineral and
organic matter.
2. Air.
3. Water.
Importance of Soil
The kind of soil totally depends upon climate,
location, vegetation and rock material. The agriculture of a country depends
upon her soil's structure and kinds. Soil is a gift of nature.
Alluvium
Those materials which are transported from one
place to another by rivers and deposited at other places are called alluvium.
Aeolian Soil
Similarly wind also transports the material from
one place to another which is deposited over the surface that is called Aeolian
Soil.
Classification of Soils
The soil of Pakistan may be classified according
to the regional basis.
Indus basin Soils
The indus plain is made with the deposition of
alluvium by the indus river its tributaries. For the last thousands of years
rivers have been depositing the soil in the form of layers. These soils have
more calcium carbonate and less organic matter. These soils are divided into
three main categories.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
Bongar Soils
Bongar soils cover a vast area of indus plain.
The area includes most of the part of Punjab, Peshawar, Mardan, Bannu and
Kachhi plain. A major part of the province of sindh is also comprised of these
soils. Some of these soils are rich and irrigated give very good production.
Usually these soils are far from the present rivers beds.
Khaddar Soils
Khaddar soils are also formed along the rivers.
So every year new layer of salt clay is deposited. These soils have low content
of organic matter and salt.
Indus Delta Soils
These soils cover the river Indus Delta. They
extent from Hyderabad to the south coastal area. Most of the soils is clay and
developed under floodwater. Rice is cultivated in the major part of these
soils.
Mountain Soils
These soils mostly cover the highlands of
northern and western areas of Pakistan. The soils of northern mountainous areas
have high content of organic matters because the climate is moist. Whereas the
soils of western mountainous areas have high content of calcium carbonate and
low content of organic matter because the climate of these areas is arid and
semi-arid. The soils of Pothwar plateau have high lime content. They are
productive when plenty of water is available.
Sandy Desert Soils
The soils cover the western areas of
Balochistan, Cholistan and the desert of Thar in Pakistan. They are formed by
layers of sand particles. They have moderate quantity of calcium carbonate.
They are made of disposition of sandy soil layer by layer Arid and semi-arid
type of climate effect these soils. So the economic activities are very low in
deserts

Chapter
6 - Industrial Development of Pakistan - Question 9 - Industrial Progress is
Possible in Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Pakistan is an under-developed country there
prevails poverty among the people. Drought, environmental pollution, low
income, lawlessness, and illness are the main causes for backwardness in
agriculture and industry. Hence the country cannot progress. Our progress
mostly depends upon agriculture and industrial sector. Similarly imports,
exports and means of transportation are the basis of the progress of a country.
Either it is private sector or the public sectors, both are very important.
E-Commerce can play a vital role in the development of the economy in such a
way that living standard of present generation may increase.
Pakistan industrial progress depends upon the
following factors:
1. Agriculture
2. Means of transportation and communications.
3. Best utilization of natural resources.
4. Financial resources
5. Increase of the capability of human
productivity resources.
6. Increase of the supply of goods to the
international market.
7. Promotion of banking.
8. Emphasis on the technology.
9. Expansion of the markets.
10. Increase in the income of the people so that
they may increase their consumption and savings.

is world of computer technology. It is now being used in the industry, commerce
and homes. Now one car deal with the others with the help of a computer. the
world has become a global village.
Advantages of E-Commerce
E-Commerce is the new method of doing business
in the world. Different industries advertise their products on the internet
with their prices. Whereas every person sitting at home or in office can see
the pictures and prices, of the commodities of those industries through
internet. One can directly take information from the company. by E-Commerce, we
can sell anything at suitable prices, and can earn profit. This is called
E-Commerce business.
By Using Credit Cards

Chapter
6 - Industrial Development of Pakistan - Question 7 - Kinds of Land Transport
and Communication
Friendsmania.net
Various Means of Communication
The means of communication are mail, telegraph,
telex, telephone, television, newspaper, magazines, radio, internet, e-mail and
e-commerce, etc. People come closer to one another through all these means.
They help the businessmen to make deals quickly, and keep them in touch with
price fluctuations. They also help to send documents to distant places in no
time.
Types of Communication
There are two types of land communication:
1. Railway
2. Roads
1. Railways
Pakistan railway is the most important of our
transportation system but it is not fully being used.
Roads bear the maximum burden. It is called P.R.
In the beginning railway engines were operated by coal. Now diesel engines have
been raplaced by electric engines. The first railway track was laid between
Karachi and Kotri in 1861. At some places double liens are arranged and new
railway lines are being laid. Railway has 600 locomotive railway engines and
23459 good wagons.
Steps towards Improvement of Pakistan Railway
More facilities are being provided to the
passengers. Modern signal system has been adopted. Mughalpura workshop, Lahore
and Islamabad Wagon shop are repairing engines and tail compartments improve
the system of railway. It is very important that Pakistan Railways should
improve the means of transportation of goods to enhace the industrial and
economic progress.
Problems of Pakistan Railways
There is mismanagement of railways which has
created following problems:
Old and Rusty Machinery
Most of the machinery has become old and rusty.
It has not been repaired or replaced so far.
Slow Speed of Goods Trains
The speed of goods train is slow so people send
their goods by roads. Thus railway suffers financial loss.
Lack of New Powerful Engines
Pakistan, Railway suffers from shortage of new
powerful engines. Passenger and Express trains are usually pulled by these
engines, which go out of order commonly thus causing delay of goods and
passenger trains.
Old Railway Tracks
Old and rusty railway tracks, sleepers and
wagons, cause increasing railway accidents.
Mismanagement and Inefficiency
Mismanagement, over staffing and inefficiency of
the workers are the main reasons, which cause financial losses to Pakistan
Railway. The management of Pakistan Railway is not competent.
Lack of Accountability System
There is no proper system of accountablity in
railways department.
2. Roads
Roads are very important for our trade.
Different cities have been linked by roads and much of our production and raw
material is carried from one place to another through roads. The majority of
our population travels by road. Moreover agricultural goods and other
production of our articles are carried to different parts of the country by
roads.
Important Roads of Pakistan
Only one highway connects the north and the
south of the country, i.e. Karachi, Hyderabad, Multan, Sahiwal, Lahore, Gujranwala,
Rawalpindi and Peshawar. This national highway is a mean of transportation of
56% of goods and the people of the country from one place to another.
Shahrah-e-Resham
It was constructed in the north of the country
with the help of China passes through the highest mountain of the world.
Shahrah-e-Resham links Pakistan and China via Abbottabad, Rawalpindi and
Islamabad.
Length of Roads in Pakistan
There are many long roads in the country which
are of both good condition and quality. The length of roads in Pakistan is
251661km which are 148877 km of good quality and 102784km of low quality.
Motorway
Need for Motorway
There was great burden on the National Highway
No. 5. Due to traffic burden its performance does not meet the requirements.
This rush could not be reduced even by making the National Highway two ways.
Tranportation of goods from one place to another as well as travelling takes
lot of time. It has necessitated a new motorway in country.
Gawadar Motorway
A part from this, Gawadar Motorway is also being
constructed which is 865km long.
Karachi-Hub Kakar Motorway
Karachi-Hub Kakar Motorway is 341 km long and it
was opened for traffic in 1998. In Pakistan the project of motorway is divided

Important Major Industries of Pakistan
The Important Major Industries of Pakistan
There are the following important industries of
Pakistan.
Cotton Textile Industry
After the freedom of Pakistan the maximum
progress was made by the industry of cotton cloth Pakistan got its share of
three industries. Cotton cloth was mostly imported. Government gave much
importance to this industry and encouraged. At that time 850 small and large
industries were working. In 1975 the produce of cloth was 70 crore yarns. Now
our country is independent in some types of cloth yards but cotton cloth is
also being exported. Japan and Hong Kong are the biggest importers of our
cloth. Now the import of this industry is finished. Its industries are mostly
in Faisalabad, Lahore and Karachi. Faisalabad is called the Manchester of
Pakistan. Two industries Bolan Textile and Lusbella are being established by
the cooperation of Iran. It will cost Rs. 67 Crores.
Woollen Textile Industry
There are no industry of woollen cloth in
Pakistan before partition. One difficulty is that fine woollen thread has to be
imported. Country wool is not so good that it can be used in the manufacturing
of good quality cloth. It is mostly used in carpet making high quality woollen
cloth blanket and woollen thread in Pakistan is made in Bannu, Karachi,
Lawrencepur, Hernai Multan, Noshera and Quaidabad.
Cement Industry
There was only industry of cement when Pakistan
came in to being. Now many industries are working in Daud Khel, Dandkot,
Hyderabad, Wah, Rohrim Jhelum, Hazara and Karachi. Calcium Carbonate, Gypsum
and Special clay which is used in its manufacturing is sufficient for Pakistan.
A factory is being made in Spuntungy in Balochistan with the cooperation of
Iran. Second factory is under construction at Gudai in Lasbella. Factories of
cement are also working in Gharibwal, Farooqui, Noshera, Kohar and Nooriabad.

Industry of Banaspati Ghee
In Pakistan the industry of banaspati ghee has
progressed much but its production is less the need of our country. More
factories are being set up. There was no ghee factory in Balochistan at the
time of partition. But now two factories are working at Quetta and Temple Dera.
In 1973 this industry was nationlized. Government is establishing more
factories according to our needs. Two factories are located in Northern areas
and one is being set up on tribal areas. Now there are 25 ghee factories in
Pakistan.
Chemical Industries

Industrial
Development of Pakistan - Question 3 - Small Scale Industry and Problems of
Small Scale Industry
Friendsmania.net
Small Scale Industry
Small scale industry has always been praised in
different ways in various countries. In Pakistan this industry is that one
which after employing 2 to 9 workers produces different goods for the market on
small scale. Following are the main small scale industries.
Poultry farms, dairy farm, honey making
industry, carpets, pots, sports goods, fans and electric motors etc.
Problems of Small Scale Industry
(I) Decreases in the Productive Capabilities of the Labour
Small scale industrialists have less capital.
That's why they cannot expand their bussiness due to lack of capital.
(II) Lack of Technical Skills
Workers are uneducated and unskilled. Due to
non-availibility of new technology it is very difficult for the semi skilled
and illiterate workers to maintain the standard of their products. So they
cannot establish large scale industry because of lack of technical skills.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
(III) Lack of Cooperation
Due to lack of cooperation small scale industry
faces different difficulties. The difficulty to find the profitable markets and
competition with the large scale industries which produces better goods and the
small industry has to face losses.
(IV) Outdated Means of Production
The cause of problems in small scale industry is
that they use mainly old and outdated means of production.
(V) Step Motherly Treatment
The Step Motherly Treatment of the government
departments creates lot of problems. Small industry finds it difficult to get
the good raw material. It cannot train their workers and pay them good wages.
They work without the benefits of social security

Industrial Development of Pakistan - Question 2 -
Backwardness of Industry in Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Causes of Backwardness of Industry in Pakistan
Following are the causes of the lack of
industrial progress in Pakistan.
(I) Industrial Policies of Different Governments
When new government takes over it disposes of
all policies of previous government. Due to this our country faces great
problems and causes lack of progress.
(II) Decrease in the Capital
Every industry wants a large number of capitals
but due to lack of capital industry will not progress.
(III) Limited Markets
Limited markets are also the cause of lack of
industrial progress.

When labour will works hard then any industry
makes progress and production will also improve and increase. If labour will
not work then industry will deteriorate.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
(V) Lack of Means of Transportation and Communication
Communication plays an important and vital role
in industry's progress. If communication system is in disorder then our product
is out of order. That's why lack of communication and transportation also
causes the industry failure.
(VI) Expensive Means
Expensive means of transportation and
communication.
(VII) Lack of Technical Knowledge
If workers are not technical minded then our
industry will not progress. Lack of our technical workers is the downfall of
our industries.
(VIII) Shortage of Entrepreneurs
Because of shortage of entrepreneurs industry
will not progress.
(IX) Lack of Education
Lack of political coordination and political
stability is the cause of industry's failure.
(X) Non-Availibility of Electricity
Non-Availibility of Electricity in many regions.
(XI) Common Load Shedding
Electricity plays an important role in
Pakistan's progress. Pakistan is not self sufficient in electricity that's why
common load shedding also causes failure in industry's progress.
(XII) Economic Restrictions Imposed by Other Countries
An economic restriction imposed by other
countries also causes failure of industry's progress.
(XIII) Lack of Effective Exploration of the World Market
Lack of effective exploration of the world
market also causes failure of industry's progress

Ideology of Pakistan
Friendsmania.net
Introduction
Pakistan is an ideological state and the
ideology of Pakistan is an Islamic Ideology. Its basic principles being:
"The only Sovereign is Allah."
Ideology of Pakistan basically means that
Pakistan should be a state where the Muslims should have an opportunity to live
according to the faith and creed based on the Islamic principles. Quaid-e-Azam
once said:
"Pakistan was created the day the first Indian national entered the
field of Islam."
From the above statement, it is clear that
ideology of Pakistan is an Islamic one.
Two Nation Concepts
The fundamental concept of ideology is that
Muslims should get a separate identity. They should have a separate state where
they could live according to Islamic rules and principle. On one occasion
Quaid-e-Azam said:
"The Muslims demand Pakistan where they can rule in accordance with
their own system of life, their culture development, their traditions and
Islamic laws."
Thus, this fundamental concept of ideology led
to the concept of two nations in the Sub Continent and resulted in the
formation of Pakistan.
@import
"/extensions/GoogleAdSense/GoogleAdSense.css";
Factors Creating the Idea of Separate Homeland
Factors creating the idea of a separate homeland
were as follows:
1. Anti Muslim Campaign
The Hindus and British joined hands to destroy
the faith, belief, customs and national importance of Muslims because Muslim
rebellion was creating much problem for both.
2. In Acceptance of British Rule
Muslims had been ruling the Sub-Continent for
ages. Therefore, they could not resist any power over them. When British came
to rule the Sub Continent, Muslims were the only nation who opposed them. Thus,
in order to gain power, British had to crush the Muslims collectively.
3. Hindus Betrayed Muslims
In the beginning, Hindus appeared to be on
Muslim's side, but later on their hostility was exposed as they opposed various
steps taken by British Government which purely benefited Muslims.
4. Refusal of Muslim Identity
British wanted to implement parliamentary system
in Sub-Continent in which the majority was the power and authority. due to
Hindu majority it was probable that if British left India undivided, it would
fall under the Hindus Rule. Further more, Hindus did not accept the separate
identity of Muslims and thus, there were no chances of freedom even after the
British rule.
5. War of 1857
In 1857, Muslims and Hindus tried to expel the
British out of India but failed. Later due to Hindu conspiracies, Muslims were
held responsible for it and hence were crushed further by British.
6. Sir Syed's Idea
Sir Syed for the first time put down the idea
that Muslims are a separate nation. He convinced Muslims to unite themselves in
order to have a separate social and political identity.
Basic Points of Ideology of Pakistan
Muslims are different from Hindus in every
aspect, their culture, civilization, customs and religion all are entirely
different.
The Muslims need a free state for protection of
their separate where they can live in accordance with their faith, belief and
follow the Islamic codes.
Importance of Ideology in National Life
Ideology is a motivating force for a nation,
which is striving hard to bring stability and homogeneity to its nation hood.
It provides the binding force to the scattered groups in a society and brings
them close to each other on a common platform. Ideologies impel their adherence
to follow a joint linked action for the accomplishment of their goal.
Ideologies give shape to the revolutions and create new cultures and
civilizations. They stress on their adherents to insist on the realization of
their ideal through total transformation of society.
An urgent agreement with each other on the
ideals is most vital pre-requisite of an ideology.
Conclusion
The fundamental concept of the ideology of
Pakistan is that Muslims are a separate nation having their own culture,
literature, religion and way of life. They cannot be merged in any other
nation. They should be able to develop their culture and religious traditions
in an Islamic State and they should be able to create a true Islamic society
for themselves.
Thus the ideology of Pakistan which developed
through the period of Mohammad Bin Qasim and others and followed by political
leaders like Quaid-e-Azam was materialized in 1947

Ideology
of Pakistan in the Light of Quaid-e-Azam's Sayings
friendsmania.net
Introduction
Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah gave practical
shape to the ideology given by Allama Iqbal.
After joining Muslim League in 1913, he
continued with his efforts to bring about Hindu Muslim unity but he was greatly
disappointed to see the prejudicial attitude of the Congress and Hindus towards
the Muslims. Following are some extracts from the speeches and statements which
he delivered from time to time for explaining the ideology of Pakistan.
Address At Second Round Table Conference in 1931
Quaid-e-Azam believed that Congress and Hindus
would never recognize the rights of Muslims. He declared while representing the
Muslims in the second Round Table Conference in 1913:
"The Hindu Muslim dispute must be settled before the enforcement of
any system or constitution. Until you do not give guarantee for the safeguard
of the Muslim interests, until you do not win their (Muslims) co-operations,
any constitution you enforece shall not last for even 24 hours."
Quaid-e-Azam and Two Nation Theory
Quaid-e-Azam was a firm advocate of two nation
theory which became the ideological basis of Pakistan. He said:
"The Muslims are a nation by every right to establish their separate
homeland. They can adopt any means to promote and protect their economic
social, political and cultural interests."
On 23rd March, 1940 at the historic session of
the Muslim League at Lahore, he said:
"The Mussalmans are not a minority. They are a nation by any
definition. By all canons of International law we are a nation."
In his presidential address at the annual
session of Muslim League at Lahore in 1940. He said:
"India is not a nation, nor a country. It is a Sub Continent of
nationalities. Hindus and Muslims being the two major nations. The Hindus and
Muslims belong to two different religions, philosophies, social customs and
literature. They neither intermarry nor inter dine and they belong to two
different civilizations which are based mainly on conflicting ideas and
conceptions. Their aspects on life and of are different. It is quite clear that
Hindus and Muslims derive their inspiration from different sources of
history."
On March 8, 1944 while addressing the students
of Muslim University, he said:
"Hindus and Muslims through living in the same town and villages had
never been blended into one nation. They were always two separate
entities."
Quaid-e-Azam and Millat-e-Islamia
He believed that only Islam was the unifying
force of the Muslim Millat. He said:
"What relationships knits the Muslims into one whole, which is the
formidable rock on which the Muslim edifice has been erected, which is the
sheet anchor providing base to the Muslim Millat, the relationship, the sheet
anchor and the rock is Holy Quran."

Address At Islamia College Peshawar
In 1946, at Islamia College Quaid-e-Azam
declared:
"We do not demand Pakistan simply to have a piece of land but we
want a laboratory where we could experiment on Islamic principles."
Address on 18th June 1945
In his message to the Frontier Muslim Students
Federation, he said:
"Pakistan not only means freedom and independence but Muslim
ideology, which has to be preserved which came to us as a precious gift and
treasure and which we hope, other will share with us."
Conclusion
The above sayings and statements largely prove
that Quaid-e-Azam wanted to establish an Islamic system as a code of life
because he believed that it was the sole objective of the Pakistan Movement
