The level of commitment of funds is now 85 percent of the Public Disclosure Copy credit amount and the roll out of the automated system is in full swing. A total of 10 Service Centers is now operational. Data entry has been completed in Hafizabad district and is in progress in another 17 districts. Data entry poses the major challenge to adherence to the project implementation timelines. The PMU has been pulling together the lessons learned Page 1 of 4 Public Disclosure Authorized The World Bank Report No: ISR6934 in the pilot phase Districts and will document that for the benefit of Districts now on stream. It was agreed that regular monthly reporting on the status of the data entry work by District, with explanation of any delays against agreed timeframes, be provided to the Bank starting August 1. The performance of the PMU, and implementation of the overall project monitoring plan, remain on track. In the view of the mission, Government’s decision to eliminate pay supplements for civil service staff seconded to the PMU could pose a threat to the Project. This has bearing in particular on the positions of Project Director, Deputy Project Director, Director Operations, Director Monitoring and Evaluation, and Director Policy. The risk of turnover of currently seconded public sector staff is high, and it will most likely be difficult to attract and maintain qualified public sector staff when vacancies appear. Government has agreed to review this policy in June.

  • Cast and Baradri System and Voting Behavior in Pakistan (Elections 2018): a Case Study of Hafizabad District
    Cast and Baradri System and Voting Behavior in Pakistan (Elections 2018): A Case Study of Hafizabad District Karim Haider Muhammad Arshad Ali This study scrutinizes the impact of caste and Baradri system on voting behavior evolving from Pakistan’s general elections of 2018. Traditionally, the caste and Baradari system have been playing a substantial role in the elections of Pakistan since its birth especially in the region of Punjab. After the partition the evolution and modernization of electoral system and introduction of democratic institution in Pakistan never fully changed the customary value-system of the society of Punjab which is largely based on caste and Baradari system. With specific reference to caste and Baradari system in Punjab, an analytical research has been made to understand profound origins of Caste and Baradari System and its impact on the voting behavior of four selected constituencies, one of National Assembly and three of Provincial Assembly of Punjab in one of the districts of province of Punjab in general elections of 2018. Further, this study explains that the Punjab is based on social divergence with national political culture; therefore, the people of Punjab always look standing with the authoritarian rule which begins from family system and ends at national politics of Pakistan. Having majority seats in National Assembly the role of Punjab is very important and study about the voting behavior of the people of Punjab has special reference to national politics. Introduction Baradari defined as “brotherhood” initiated by the Persian language word Baradar meaning “brother”. Muslims of south Asian region especially in India and Pakistan, a large number of socialclasses are separated on the origin of Biradaris.

Abstract Fluctuations in climatic conditions enhances flood vulnerability, especially in the agricultural lands that lie alongside the river. This paper evaluates the causes of flood, variations in the spatial extent of flood peak dates and investigates the socio-economic impacts of flood, in district Mandi Bahauddin, Punjab, Pakistan for year 2010 and 2014. Primary data was collected through questionnaires from the farmers owning agricultural lands in the study area. Secondary data was obtained from various government organizations. Results prove that the effects of 2014 flood were more severe than 2010. Tehsil Phalia was badly destroyed in 2014 flood because it is located along side River Chenab. Flood left great effects on socio-economic life of people living in study area. For the prevention from the future floods, it is necessary to take mitigation measures and the policy of the government must be changed from disaster response to disaster mitigation. According to flood victims, structural and non-structural measures both are very important for the flood prevention.
