Politics of Nawwab Gurmani
Politics of Accession in the Undivided India: A Case Study of Nawwab Mushtaq Gurmani’s Role in the Accession of the Bahawalpur State to Pakistan Pir Bukhsh Soomro ∗ Before analyzing the role of Mushtaq Ahmad Gurmani in the affairs of Bahawalpur, it will be appropriate to briefly outline the origins of the state, one of the oldest in the region. After the death of Al-Mustansar Bi’llah, the caliph of Egypt, his descendants for four generations from Sultan Yasin to Shah Muzammil remained in Egypt. But Shah Muzammil’s son Sultan Ahmad II left the country between l366-70 in the reign of Abu al- Fath Mumtadid Bi’llah Abu Bakr, the sixth ‘Abbasid caliph of Egypt, 1 and came to Sind. 2 He was succeeded by his son, Abu Nasir, followed by Abu Qahir 3 and Amir Muhammad Channi. Channi was a very competent person. When Prince Murad Bakhsh, son of the Mughal emperor Akbar, came to Multan, 4 he appreciated his services, and awarded him the mansab of “Panj Hazari”5 and bestowed on him a large jagir . Channi was survived by his two sons, Muhammad Mahdi and Da’ud Khan. Mahdi died ∗ Lecturer in History, Government Post-Graduate College for Boys, Dera Ghazi Khan. 1 Punjab States Gazetteers , Vol. XXXVI, A.

The two claimants to the jagir were Kalhora, son of Muhammad Mahdi Khan and Amir Da’ud Khan I.

Survey Report
SAVE THE NATURE SURVEY REPORT BALOCHISTAN BLACK BEARIN PAB HILL, DISTRICT KHUZDARBALOCHISTAN [November2013] [ INTRODUCTION Balochistan, the largest province of Pakistan, has a rich floral and faunal diversity. Despite its global importance it has never been explored in detail nor been managed properly. The ecosystems are being degraded, depleted and deteriorated mainly due to the absence of appropriate management practices. As a result critical habitats continue to be degraded and many species of global importance have either become extinct or are critically endangered. The government has limited reach to the wilderness areas of the province, and little capacity or resources to undertake conservation activities. The extent of the issues is further augmented in these areas of the province due to inaccessibility and lack of human resources with the custodian department. Overgrazing; cutting of scanty vegetation by outsiders for sale as for fuel; indiscriminate hunting and trade in wild species are common practice especially in the bordering districts. Besides poverty and unawareness, the other most serious deficiency in environmental policy-making in the province lies in the lack of adequate and specifically trained human resources, able to generate new or to tap traditional knowledge needed for effective policy and proper implementation of the decisions. HABITAT AND LOCALITY OF BLOCHISTAN BLACK BEAR WADH Sub-Tehsil of district Khuzdar, Balohistan is very famous for its unique natural resources. It is predominantly inhabited by Mengal Tribe of Balochistan. The climate of the area is semi-arid with warm summers and mild winters. The target area, like rest of the Balochistan is also rich in mineral resources.
