according to an estimate in 2004-05, 62% of households had access to tap water inside or within a reasonable distance from their homes via storage and partial treatment at Water Supply Complexes—the highest rate in Pakistan (GB-Economic Survey Report, 2010). According to Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey 2016-17 (MICS) of Gilgit-Baltistan, 79% of household members are using improved sources of drinking water. Public Health Engineering Department (PHED), Gilgit Development Authority (GDA) and Gilgit-Baltistan Public Works Department (GBPWD) are the custodian departments for construction and operation of Drinking Water Supply Systems (DWSS) in urban areas of Gilgit- Baltistan (GB).

  • In Its Meeting Held on 10Th June 2020 Approved Block Allocation of Rs
    PREFACE PREFACE The National Economic Council (NEC) in its meeting held on 10th June 2020 approved Block Allocation of Rs. 15000 million in the Federal PSDP for Annual Development Program (ADP) of Gilgit-Baltistan for the year 2020-21. The Federal Government has kept GB share unchanged from the previous Financial Year, including Foreign Aid Component of Rs. 2000 million, despite the fact that the country has been ravaged by the outbreak of COVID- 19. The Foreign Aid Component has been provided for the Economic Transformation Initiative (ETI) in Gilgit-Baltistan. The ADP 2020-21 has been formulated with a vision to provide better facilities of life including access to energy, sanitation, basic health care, education, communication, and sustainable livelihood to the people of the region. Major intervention areas include essential health care services, new facilities for Covid-19 patients, roads and bridges across remote valleys, water supply and sanitation schemes, IT based learning projects, and generation and distribution projects in power sector. The Covid-19 crisis is the most serious crisis in our living memory hitting world economy, public health, tourism, and almost all facets of our public life. GB government has allocated substantial resources in ADP 2020-21 to tackle this crisis. We are also grateful to the federal government which has promised matching grant for all Covid related development expenditure. FY 2019-20 remained another successful year in the development history of Gilgit-Baltistan, as GB Government has been ahead of other provinces as far as utilization of the development funds are concerned. For the last five consecutive years, the GB Government has been achieving 100% utilization of development funds and we hope to achieve this goal in the current year too.

It is obviously your own institution that provides you the education facility at your door step. Allama Iqbal Open University is the unique in Pakistan which provides education to all citizens; without any discrimination of age, gender, ethnicity, region or religion. It is no doubt that our beloved country had been facing numerous issues since its creation. The initial days were very tough for the newly state but with the blessings of Allah Almighty, it made progress day by day. However, due to conspiracy of external powers and some weaknesses of our leaders, the internal situation of East Pakistan rapidly changed and the end was painful as we lost not only the land but also our Bengali brothers. After the war of 1971, the people and leaders of Pakistan were forced to rethink the future of the remaining country.

Beijing’s involvement in various mega projects related to construction and development of strategic infrastructure in the Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir (PoK), influx of People’s Liberation Army (PLA) in the Gilgit-Baltistan region, adoption of visa-related controversial policies and invitation to India’s Kashmiri separatist leader, are being seen in the India’s official and strategic circles, as the encirclement of India by China through Kashmir. During the Cold War era, Beijing had bestowed Pakistan with the status of ‘spoiler state’ in order to weaken the natural predominance of India in the South Asian region. Nevertheless, now, it is being viewed that China has transformed Pakistan into a ‘ frontline state’ to contain the increasing Indian influence at regional and global levels.
