One of the requirement of Section 3(5)(d)(ii) of NEPRA (Application and Modification Procedure) Regulation 1999 is that the Applicant shall provide expression of interest to provide credit or financing for the Project.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new species of torrent catfish, Liobargus hyeongsanensis, is described from rivers and tributaries of the southeastern coast of Korea. The new species can be differentiated from its congeners by the following characteristics: a small size with a maximum standard length (SL) of 90 mm; body and fins entirely brownish-yellow without distinct markings; a relatively short pectoral spine (3.7–6.5 % SL); a reduced body-width at pectoral-fin base (15.5–17.9 % SL); 50–54 caudal-fin rays; 6–8 gill rakers; 2–3 (mostly 3) serrations on pectoral fin; 60–110 eggs per gravid female. Key words: Amblycipitidae, Liobagrus hyeongsanensis, New species, Endemic, South Korea Introduction Species of the family Amblycipitidae, which comprises four genera, are found in swift freshwater streams in southern and eastern Asia, ranging from Pakistan across northern India to Malaysia, Korea, and Southern Japan (Chen & Lundberg 1995; Ng & Kottelat 2000; Kim & Park 2002; Wright & Ng 2008).

    SCHOLAR WARRIOR Gilgit-Baltistan: An Overview SENGE SERING Gilgit-Baltistan is a part of the state of Jammu and Kashmir but remains in the illegal occupation of Pakistan. It has an area of 76, 000 square kilometers, almost equal to the area of Assam. Around two million people call it their home. These include Tajiks, Dardic, Burushu and Tibetans. Farming, tourism and gem trading are the main sources of income. Economic Development In the context of macro-level development, the Government of Pakistan has adopted a top down approach with government organisations and corporations determining and leading the development projects, leaving little or no role for the local population in the decision making process. The benefits in the larger context often come in the long term but seldom accrue to the people at whose expense sacrifices have been made. For micro-level development, there is a bottom up approach mostly led by NGOs like Aga Khan Foundation. Decision making is at the grassroots level, aimed at capacity building to sustain livelihoods at the local level. Chinese Interests China’s interests mainly pertain to large scale strategic and economic projects. Locals have no role in planning, policy formulation, execution and benefit distribution. The sectors that the Chinese engage in are building trade and transit routes and tunnels, construction of dams, the energy sector, and mining of 64 ä SPRING 2012 ä SCHOLAR WARRIOR SCHOLAR WARRIOR Its location in a uranium, gold, copper and other metals and minerals. highly seismic zone Chinese are now aggressively acquiring mining sites here.

  • Freedom of Religion & Religious Minorities in Pakistan: a Study Of
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 19, Issue 1 1995 Article 5 Freedom of Religion & Religious Minorities in Pakistan: A Study of Judicial Practice Tayyab Mahmud∗ ∗ Copyright c 1995 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Freedom of Religion & Religious Minorities in Pakistan: A Study of Judicial Practice Tayyab Mahmud Abstract Pakistan’s successive constitutions, which enumerate guaranteed fundamental rights and pro- vide for the separation of state power and judicial review, contemplate judicial protection of vul- nerable sections of society against unlawful executive and legislative actions. This Article focuses upon the remarkably divergent pronouncements of Pakistan’s judiciary regarding the religious status and freedom of religion of one particular religious minority, the Ahmadis. The superior judiciary of Pakistan has visited the issue of religious freedom for the Ahmadis repeatedly since the establishment of the State, each time with a different result. The point of departure for this ex- amination is furnished by the recent pronouncement of the Supreme Court of Pakistan (”Supreme Court” or “Court”) in Zaheeruddin v. State,’ wherein the Court decided that Ordinance XX of 1984 (”Ordinance XX” or ”Ordinance”), which amended Pakistan’s Penal Code to make the public prac- tice by the Ahmadis of their religion a crime, does not violate freedom of religion as mandated by the Pakistan Constitution. This Article argues that Zaheeruddin is at an impermissible variance with the implied covenant of freedom of religion between religious minorities and the Founding Fathers of Pakistan, the foundational constitutional jurisprudence of the country, and the dictates of international human rights law.
