  • Tribal Belt and the Defence of British India: a Critical Appraisal of British Strategy in the North-West Frontier During the First World War
    Tribal Belt and the Defence of British India: A Critical Appraisal of British Strategy in the North-West Frontier during the First World War Dr. Salman Bangash. “History is certainly being made in this corridor…and I am sure a great deal more history is going to be made there in the near future - perhaps in a rather unpleasant way, but anyway in an important way.” (Arnold J. Toynbee )1 Introduction No region of the British Empire afforded more grandeur, influence, power, status and prestige then India. The British prominence in India was unique and incomparable. For this very reason the security and safety of India became the prime objective of British Imperial foreign policy in India. India was the symbol of appealing, thriving, profitable and advantageous British Imperial greatness. Closely interlinked with the question of the imperial defence of India was the tribal belt2 or tribal areas in the North-West Frontier region inhabitant by Pashtun ethnic groups. The area was defined topographically as a strategic zone of defence, which had substantial geo-political and geo-strategic significance for the British rule in India. Tribal areas posed a complicated and multifaceted defence problem for the British in India during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Peace, stability and effective control in this sensitive area was vital and indispensable for the security and defence of India. Assistant Professor, Department of History, University of Peshawar, Pakistan 1 Arnold J. Toynbee, „Impressions of Afghanistan and Pakistan‟s North-West Frontier: In Relation to the Communist World,‟International Affairs, 37, No. 2 (April 1961), pp.

  • The Afghanistan-Pakistan Wars, 2008–2009: Micro-Geographies, Conflict Diffusion, and Clusters of Violence
    The Afghanistan-Pakistan Wars, 2008–2009: Micro-geographies, Conflict Diffusion, and Clusters of Violence John O’Loughlin, Frank D. W. Witmer, and Andrew M. Linke1 Abstract: A team of political geographers analyzes over 5,000 violent events collected from media reports for the Afghanistan and Pakistan conflicts during 2008 and 2009. The violent events are geocoded to precise locations and the authors employ an exploratory spatial data analysis approach to examine the recent dynamics of the wars. By mapping the violence and examining its temporal dimensions, the authors explain its diffusion from traditional foci along the border between the two countries. While violence is still overwhelmingly concentrated in the Pashtun regions in both countries, recent policy shifts by the American and Pakistani gov- ernments in the conduct of the war are reflected in a sizeable increase in overall violence and its geographic spread to key cities. The authors identify and map the clusters (hotspots) of con- flict where the violence is significantly higher than expected and examine their shifts over the two-year period. Special attention is paid to the targeting strategy of drone missile strikes and the increase in their number and geographic extent by the Obama administration. Journal of Economic Literature, Classification Numbers: H560, H770, O180. 15 figures, 1 table, 113 ref- erences. Key words: Afghanistan, Pakistan, Taliban, ­­Al- Qaeda, insurgency, Islamic terrorism, U.S. military, International Security Assistance Forces, Durand Line, Tribal Areas, Northwest Frontier Province, ACLED, NATO. merica’s “longest war” is now (August 2010) nearing its ninth anniversary. It was Alaunched in October 2001 as a “war of necessity” (Barack Obama, August 17, 2009) to remove the Taliban from power in Afghanistan, and thus remove the support of this regime for Al-Qaeda, the terrorist organization that carried out the September 2001 attacks in the United States.

  • Archaeological Exploration in the Mohmand Agency
    Ancient Pakistan, Vol. XV, 2002 187 Archaeological Exploration in the Mohmand Agency M. QASIM JAN MOHAMMADZAI Covering an area of 2,296 sq km (Sensus Report), the Mohmand Agency stretching along the Durand Line between 34°-10' and 34°-43' North Latitudes and 70°-58' and 71°-42' East Longitudes is bounded by Afghanistan in the west, the Bajaur Agency in the north and north-east and the Malakand Agency in the east, while the districts Charsadda and Peshawar border it on the south-east and south respectively. Administratively, it is divided into seven sub-divisions (tehsils) of Ghalanai, Halimzai, Safi, Ekka Ghund, Pandyalai, Ambar and Prangghar-all under a political agent, who is directly responsible to the governor of the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan. The Mohmand Agency, mostly hilly area, is formed of rugged and barren offshoots of the Hindu Kush range. Being the principal entry point from Afghanistan to the Peshawar Valley in the ancient past, it has continued to enjoy an important geo-commercial location at the present as well (Yousafi 1960: 62). It is the busiest trade route second only to the Khyber Pass (Ali 2003: 20-21). Not only fo1midable armies made their way to Pakistan, but peaceful caravans of merchants also availed the opportunity of access to the Silk Route via passes in this region (Dani 1967: 7-8). Its inhabitants have maintained their tribal way of life throughout the known history (Dupree 1980: XLII). During the time of the Mughals, Sikhs and later in the British period in particular, several attempts were made to bring this area under their direct control but stiff tribal resistance forced them revert their scheme (Swinson 1967: 32).

    ORIGINAL ARTICLE PUBLIC HEALTH Barriers in immunization of children under two years of age in Mohmand Agency, Federally Administered Tribal Area, Pakistan Muhammad Naeem12, Aisha Imtiaz , Hamid Hussain23, Naeemullah , Shama Hidayat1 ABSTRACT Background: Immunization is vital in children health care, however, many studies have shown that child immunization is influenced by many factors. Objective: To determine the barriers associated with immunization among children less than two years of age. Material & Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Tehsil Halimzai of Mohmand agency, Federally Administered Tribal Area, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, from July to December 2014. Sample size was 421. Chi-square test was applied to determine association of socio-demographic factors to immunization. Results: The socio-demographic data of participants showed that 197 (46.8%) participants were between 31 - 40 years of age. Mean age of the participants was 35.79 + 8.03. 245 (58%) were uneducated and 268 (89.8%) had monthly income between 5000 and10,000 Pakistani Rupees (PKR). Among 421 children under two years of age, 287 (68.2%) were immunized and only 102(35.5%) were fully immunized. Importance of child immunization was recognized by 286 (67.9%) parents, however, most of the parents 286 (67.9%) did not retain the immunization cards of their children. The socio-demographic factors found to be associated with immunization status of children included age (P = 0.02), income and education level of participants (P < 0.01). The other factors included psychological fear of being attacked (P = 0.04), awareness of the community about child immunization by the health care providers (P < 0.001).
