  • Towards an Inclusive Public Transport System in Pakistan1
    TOWARDS AN INCLUSIVE PUBLIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM IN PAKISTAN1 Muhammad Adeel, Anthony G.O Yeh and Zhang Feng2 Abstract Urban transport in Pakistan is characterized by the coexistence of formal and informal transit services. While urban transport is deregulated and - somehow – multimodal in the country, the transport service providers often compete with each other within their particular constrains and their equilibrium defines the overall landscape of urban accessibility. With examples from the cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, the paper discusses three broad constraints on the urban modes of transportation, namely regulatory, spatial and demand related constraints, using a number of important system characteristics. Results show that the overall level of constraints remains ‘Very High’ on the newly constructed BRT, followed by ‘High’ constraints on the informal paratransit mode, ‘Qinqui’. Whereas the Suzuki and Wagon modes coverage remains maximum and they carry relatively lower level of constraints. In this context, an inclusive urban mobility largely depends on a proactive approach by management authorities to minimize these constraints through a number of initiatives including integration of modes, improvements of the quality of service and condition of vehicle, and by facilitating the mobility of women and non-motorized travellers. Keywords: Transport, accessibility, Pakistan, BRT, Qingqi 1. BACKGROUND Population explosion and rapid urbanization in Asian countries have brought complex mobility challenges for a vast majority of their people who also face issues of poverty, inequality and limited access to basic services (Gakenheimer, 1999). While the average distances between activities are increasing with time, so are the issues of mobility and accessibility. Lack of access to public transport, poor quality of transportation infrastructure, rising levels of personal automobile ownership and a persistent disregard of traffic regulations pose further issues to the already challenging mobility environment (Dimitriou and Gakenheimer, 2011).

  • Pakistan Response Towards Terrorism: a Case Study of Musharraf Regime
    PAKISTAN RESPONSE TOWARDS TERRORISM: A CASE STUDY OF MUSHARRAF REGIME By: SHABANA FAYYAZ A thesis Submitted to the University of Birmingham For the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Political Science and International Studies The University of Birmingham May 2010 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The ranging course of terrorism banishing peace and security prospects of today’s Pakistan is seen as a domestic effluent of its own flawed policies, bad governance, and lack of social justice and rule of law in society and widening gulf of trust between the rulers and the ruled. The study focused on policies and performance of the Musharraf government since assuming the mantle of front ranking ally of the United States in its so called ‘war on terror’. The causes of reversal of pre nine-eleven position on Afghanistan and support of its Taliban’s rulers are examined in the light of the geo-strategic compulsions of that crucial time and the structural weakness of military rule that needed external props for legitimacy. The flaws of the response to the terrorist challenges are traced to its total dependence on the hard option to the total neglect of the human factor from which the thesis develops its argument for a holistic approach to security in which the people occupy a central position.

  • Final AFAD Statement
    AFAD’s Statement for the 11th year of Masood’s Enforced Disappearance in Pakistan 30 July 2016 – Today, July 30, 2016, is the eleventh year since the disappearance of Masood Ahmed Janjua, which occurred on July 30, 2005 during the military regime of General Pervez Musharraf. A respectable citizen of Pakistan, before his disappearance, Masood Ahmed Janjua was an educator and a businessman by profession. Mr Janjua was more than a businessman; he was also a philanthropist and he managed a charity hospital for the poor. On the day of his disappearance, he left home to travel to the north western part of Pakistan, together with his friend Mr. Faisal Faraz. Neither of them reached their destination, nor returned home. According to Mrs Amina Masood Janjua, numerous former detainees testified having seen her husband confined in a secret detention cell managed by the country’s secret agencies. One among these detainees, Dr. Imran Munir, had remained himself in the custody of the same secret agency for over a year before being recovered by the Supreme Court of Pakistan. Dr. Munir testified under oath that he had met and conversed with Mr Janjua during the time he was subjected to enforced disappearance by the same authorities. After this testimony, Mr. Imran Munir was threatened in such a manner that he had to leave the country. Presently he is in exile and living as a refugee under the UN refugee program. Indeed, powerful hands are making all efforts to ensure Mr. Munir’s statement in favor of Mr Janjua is not recorded.
