  • Pakistan Floods Situation Report # 4
    Pakistan Floods Situation Report # 4 Saturday 7 July 2007 Highlights • Another weather system is developing in the Bay of Bengal and moving in North West direction from India that would bring in moderate to heavy rains within the next 3-4 days in the upper Punjab and Kashmir region. The overall situation of dams and reservoirs remains under control. • Flood waters are moving southward, lowering the water levels in some areas by resulting in damage to those downstream in districts Dadu and Kambar of Sindh province. • A joint cross-sectoral assessment of the affected areas is being undertaken by the NDMA with the assistance of UN agencies and NGO partners. Preliminary assessment results are expected to be available by Thursday July 12. • The Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Cell has created an email address for coordination with health partners: [email protected] Summary Cyclone Yemyin in Baluchistan • In District Gwadar the most severely affected areas are Pasni and Ormara tehsils. Pasni is affected throughout while Ormara has six union councils badly affected. Many people are still stuck in flood areas. • In Chaghai, one of the largest districts in Pakistan, there is still no access to the affected areas and therefore there is no reliable estimate of the damages and relief requirements. • In district Khuzdar 25 dead bodies have been recovered and 120 persons are still missing. Rescue operations are being carried out by Frontier Constabulary and local communities. • Naushki town was cut off from Quetta for three days as the bridge connecting Naushki with Quetta and other parts of Chaghai district was submerged in flood water.

QUETTA :BETWEEN FOUR REGIONS AND TWO WARS Haris Gazdar, Sobia Ahmad Kaker, Irfan Khan Collective for Social Science Research February 2010 Crisis States Working Papers Series No.2 ISSN 1749-1797 (print) ISSN 1749-1800 (online) Copyright © H. Gazdar, S. Ahmad Kaker, I. Khan, 2010 24 Crisis States Working Paper Buffer Zone, Colonial Enclave or Urban Hub? Quetta: Between Four Regions and Two Wars Haris Gazdar, Sobia Ahmad Kaker and Irfan Khan Collective for Social Science Research, Karachi, Pakistan Quetta is a city with many identities. It is the provincial capital and the main urban centre of Balochistan, the largest but least populous of Pakistan’s four provinces. Since around 2003, Balochistan’s uneasy relationship with the federal state has been manifested in the form of an insurgency in the ethnic Baloch areas of the province. Within Balochistan, Quetta is the main shared space as well as a point of rivalry between the two dominant ethnic groups of the province: the Baloch and the Pashtun.1 Quite separately from the internal politics of Balochistan, Quetta has acquired global significance as an alleged logistic base for both sides in the war in Afghanistan. This paper seeks to examine different facets of Quetta – buffer zone, colonial enclave and urban hub − in order to understand the city’s significance for state building in Pakistan. State-building policy literature defines well functioning states as those that provide security for their citizens, protect property rights and provide public goods. States are also instruments of repression and the state-building process is often wrought with conflict and the violent suppression of rival ethnic and religious identities, and the imposition of extractive economic arrangements (Jones and Chandaran 2008).
