Out of 961 schemes, 405 schemes have successfully been completed at an aggregated expenditure of Rs. Rs.10.180 billion. Resultantly, communications links will get more strengthened in addition to increase in the employment rate in the province. More specifically, 60 schemes of water sector will definitely reinforce other sectors attached to it such as livestock and forestry. The PSDP 2011-12 has a total outlay of Rs.31.35 billion having 1084 schemes. Of this Rs.31.35 billion, 47.4% has been allocated to 590 ongoing schemes. The strategy adopted in preparation of the PSDP 2011-12 focuses chiefly on infrastructural sectors. Education, health and potable safe drinking water have been paid due attention with a view to bring about positive increase in their representation in social indicators. Worth mentioning is the fact that involvement of the Elected Members of the Provincial Assembly has excessively been helpful in identification of schemes in the constituencies having followed a well thought criteria.

  • The Social Effects of Drone Warfare on the F.A.T.A. and Wider Pakistan

    The Social Effects of Drone Warfare on the F.A.T.A. and Wider Pakistan

    THE SOCIAL EFFECTS OF DRONE WARFARE ON THE F.A.T.A. AND WIDER PAKISTAN Stephen Pine, January 2016 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the MA degree in Development and Emergency Practice, Oxford Brookes University The Social Effects of Drone Warfare on the F.A.T.A. and Wider Pakistan Abstract The FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Areas) of Pakistan have a long history of conflict and have been used as something of a proving ground for U.S. drones, operated jointly by the USAF (United States Air Force) and the CIA. This dissertation aims to evaluate the social effects of drone strikes and drone surveillance upon the civilian population of the FATA as well as other regions of Pakistan. Through statistical correlative analysis this dissertation finds that, far from achieving the aim of eliminating militancy within the FATA, drone strikes have acted as a recruitment tool for the Pakistani Taliban (TTP) and have harmed the local civilian population. FATA residents have been caught in a deadly cycle of drone strikes followed by militant revenge-attacks which have often been known to focus on ‘softer’ civilian targets. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data within this dissertation reveals that even the basic functioning of schools within the FATA has been affected, with both teachers and students hesitant to attend for fear of attack. Drone strikes in the region have also led to financial insecurity for families as they have lost their male ‘bread-winners’. This has been compounded by the destruction of family property and assets. Furthermore, local residents have been found to have developed mental health problems and, in many cases, display clear symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Prolonged, unchecked dogmatic bigotry has led to a sharp increase in sectarian violence in Pakistan, particularly between Shia and Sunni sects. The greatest burden of sectarianism is borne by the Shia Hazara community of Balochistan – the total population of which is estimated to be approximately between 0.4 to 0.5 million people. Hazaras have consistently been targeted by terrorists and religious fanatics since 1999 through suicide bombings and targeted killings, with more than 2,000 having reportedly been killed in the last 14 years. Hazaras are hardworking and talented people, they have been excelling in sports and scholar- ships. Many of them have worked as important civil servant contributing towards the welfare of all people. Consequently, Hazaras are of the view that they are living as prisoners in Quetta.
  • Environmental and Social Management Framework

    Environmental and Social Management Framework

    Government of Balochistan Environmental and Social Management Framework Balochistan Human Capital Investment Project (BHCIP) Health Department and Secondary Education Department February 2019 Balochistan Human Capital Investment Project Government of Balochistan Executive Summary Introduction: The Government of Balochistan (GoB) intends to implement “Balochistan Human Capital Investment Project (BHCIP)” with proposed assistance from the World Bank (WB). The project will be implemented by provincial Planning and Development Department through Health and Secondary Education Departments. In line with the national/provincial laws as well as WB safeguard requirements; and to address potentially negative environmental and social impacts of the Project, the GoB has conducted an environmental and social assessment of the proposed activities. As an outcome of this assessment, this Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) has been prepared. Context and Rationale: Pakistan is facing economic challenges amid long-standing policy and structural weaknesses. While Pakistan has reduced poverty substantially over the last two decades, however, the poverty varies considerably from 7.4 percent in Islamabad to 67.3 percent in Dera Bugti, Balochistan, where in 2014, 21 out of 33 districts have poverty rates of 50 percent and above.1 Balochistan stands at the lowest amongst many dimensions of human capital, including health and education outcomes, while the country is already performing worse than its regional peers on average. Balochistan has a Human Capital Index (HCI) of 34 percent, the lowest in Pakistan, and presents gender disparities with a HCI that is lower for females (32 percent) compared to males (35 percent).2 The low score in human capital is partially linked to Balochistan’s alarming 42 percent poverty rate3 and socio-cultural norms that makes it difficult to utilize health and education services in the province.
