  • Checklist of Medicinal Flora of Tehsil Isakhel, District Mianwali-Pakistan
    Ethnobotanical Leaflets 10: 41-48. 2006. Check List of Medicinal Flora of Tehsil Isakhel, District Mianwali-Pakistan Mushtaq Ahmad, Mir Ajab Khan, Shabana Manzoor, Muhammad Zafar And Shazia Sultana Department of Biological Sciences, Quaid-I-Azam University Islamabad-Pakistan Issued 15 February 2006 ABSTRACT The research work was conducted in the selected areas of Isakhel, Mianwali. The study was focused for documentation of traditional knowledge of local people about use of native medicinal plants as ethnomedicines. The method followed for documentation of indigenous knowledge was based on questionnaire. The interviews were held in local community, to investigate local people and knowledgeable persons, who are the main user of medicinal plants. The ethnomedicinal data on 55 plant species belonging to 52 genera of 30 families were recorded during field trips from six remote villages of the area. The check list and ethnomedicinal inventory was developed alphabetically by botanical name, followed by local name, family, part used and ethnomedicinal uses. Plant specimens were collected, identified, preserved, mounted and voucher was deposited in the Department of Botany, University of Arid Agriculture Rawalpindi, for future references. Key words: Checklist, medicinal flora and Mianwali-Pakistan. INTRODUCTION District Mianwali derives its name from a local Saint, Mian Ali who had a small hamlet in the 16th century which came to be called Mianwali after his name (on the eastern bank of Indus). The area was a part of Bannu district. The district lies between the 32-10º to 33-15º, north latitudes and 71-08º to 71-57º east longitudes. The district is bounded on the north by district of NWFP and Attock district of Punjab, on the east by Kohat districts, on the south by Bhakkar district of Punjab and on the west by Lakki, Karak and Dera Ismail Khan District of NWFP again.

  • Grounding Sectarianism: the End of Syncretic Traditions
    Journal of the Research Society of Pakistan Volume No. 55, Issue No. 2 (July - December, 2018) Saadia Sumbal * Grounding Sectarianism: The end of syncretic traditions Abstract This article sets out to explore the sectarian differentiation that beset Pakistan from the very outset. In this study the events taking place at the national level, had the resonance at the local level, particularly in the district Mianwali. In a bid to explain the heightened sectarian tension, the role of Maulana Allahyar 1 from Chakrala 2 , has been underscored as a devout exponent of Sunni/ Deobandi ascendancy, with wider implication. He employed munazara as the main instrument of stemming Shia dissemination. He upheld the cause of Sunni/Deobandi version of Islam in the midst of rising proselytization of Shias in the region. Because of his endeavors to counter the Shia’s creeping influence in Chakrala, came to be the epicenter of Islamic reformism. Hence along with the strivings of Allahyar, Chakrala too forms the main focus of study. Introduction Pakistan has faced a constant irritant regarding the status of the religious minorities vis a vis majority. The politics of religious exclusion therefore becomes extremely relevant while studying Pakistan‟s political history. Such exclusion has crystalized the sectarian fault lines which gave rise to fundamentalist ideologies. On sectarianism and religio-political activism of Ulema most scholars link the increased radicalization of sectarian identities with Zia-ul-Haq‟s Islamization, the Afghan War, the proliferation of Deobandi madaris and the 1979 Iranian Revolution.3 Qasim Zaman and Vali Nasr have delved deep into sectarianism, their work shows how in the last half of twentieth century, configuration of social, political and religious factors at national and transnational levels articulated religious identities4.

  • State Capacity in Punjab's Local Governments
    Final report State capacity in Punjab’s local governments Benchmarking existing deficits Gharad Bryan Ali Cheema Ameera Jamal Adnan Khan Asad Liaqat Gerard Padro i Miquel June 2019 When citing this paper, please use the title and the following reference number: S-37433-PAK-2 STATE CAPACITY IN PUNJAB’S LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: BENCHMARKING EXISTING DEFICITS Gharad Bryan, Ali Cheema, Ameera Jamal, Adnan Khan, Asad Liaqat Gerard Padro i Miquel This Version: August 2019 Abstract As the developing world urbanizes, there is increasing pressure to provide local public goods and local governments are expected to play an important role in their provision. However, there is little work on the nature of of capacity deficits faced by local governments and whether these deficits are acting as a constraint on performance. We use financial accounts data from Punjab’s local governments for 2018-19 to measure their ability to utilize budgets and find that there is considerable variation in this metric across local governments. We supplement this with a management survey with the top managers whose decisions affect budget utilization in a random sample of 129 out of 193 urban local governments in Punjab. We find that the capacity deficits in local governments are particularly challenging in terms of human resource capabilities, the adoption of automated systems, and legal and enforcement capacity. We also find that better human resource capabilities and the use of managerial incentives are positively correlated with budget utilization. Our evidence provides new insights on the importance of management and human resource capabilities and systems capacity in local governments in a developing country setting.

  • Evaluation of Nutritional Potential of Wild Edible Fruits Consumed by Indigenous Communities of Central Punjab, Pakistan
    Pak. J. Bot., 52(5): 1715-1725, 2020. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.30848/PJB2020-5(6) EVALUATION OF NUTRITIONAL POTENTIAL OF WILD EDIBLE FRUITS CONSUMED BY INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES OF CENTRAL PUNJAB, PAKISTAN ASIF ABBAS SHAH1, AMIN SHAH1,⃰ MUHAMMAD NADEEM2 AND SARVAT RAHIM1 1Department of Botany, University of Sargodha, Sargodha-40100, Pakistan 2Institute of Food Science and Nutrition, University of Sargodha, Sargodha-40100, Pakistan *Corresponding author’s email: [email protected] Abstract The current study was based upon nutritional value of wild edible fruits consumed by rural people in Central Punjab, Pakistan. The study area is gifted with fertile agricultural land that is blessed with arid and semi-arid climatic conditions. However, uncultivated landscapes in the region are occupied by wild flora including wild edible fruits. This work focused on the consumers of wild edible fruits in the indigenous communities because of their vast traditional knowledge on the nutritional importance of indigenous wild species. A total of 27 wild edible fruit plants were recorded in the area belonging to 16 families. All the plants were native and have occupied the area for decades or centuries. Ziziphus nummularia, Morus nigra and Morus alba were found to be the most abundant and consumable species. The most rarely occurring species were Asparagus officinalis, Cocculus hirsutus, Cordia gharaf and Grewia tenax. The plant samples were collected, identified, preserved and deposited in the Herbarium of University of Sargodha (SARGU) for future reference. Fruit samples were subjected to proximate analysis such as moisture, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, ash and nitrogen free extract (NFE) contents to evaluate their nutritional importance.
