  • 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.

For an Army to fight a campaign successfully, many different aspects of military activity need to be in place. The soldiers who do the actual fighting need to be properly trained, equipped, supplied, and importantly for the individual soldiers, they need to know that in the event of them being wounded (which is more likely than not), they will receive the best medical treatment possible. In South East Asia, more soldiers fell ill than were wounded in battle, and this fact severely affected the ability of the Army to sustain any unit in the front line for any significant period.

  • A Case Study of the Bazaar Valley Expedition in Khyber Agency 1908
    Journal of Law and Society Law College Vol. 40, No. 55 & 56 University of Peshawar January & July, 2010 issues THE BRITISH MILITARY EXPEDITIONS IN THE TRIBAL AREAS: A CASE STUDY OF THE BAZAAR VALLEY EXPEDITION IN KHYBER AGENCY 1908 Javed Iqbal*, Salman Bangash**1, Introduction In 1897, the British had to face a formidable rising on the North West Frontier, which they claim was mainly caused by the activities of ‘Mullahs of an extremely ignorant type’ who dominated the tribal belt, supported by many disciples who met at the country shrines and were centre to “all intrigues and evils”, inciting the tribesmen constantly against the British. This Uprising spread over the whole of the tribal belt and it also affected the Khyber Agency which was the nearest tribal agency to Peshawar and had great importance due to the location of the Khyber Pass which was the easiest and the shortest route to Afghanistan; a country that had a big role in shaping events in the tribal areas on the North Western Frontier of British Indian Empire. The Khyber Pass remained closed for traffic throughout the troubled years of 1897 and 1898. The Pass was reopened for caravan traffic on March 7, 1898 but the rising highlighted the importance of the Khyber Pass as the chief line of communication and trade route. The British realized that they had to give due consideration to the maintenance of the Khyber Pass for safe communication and trade in any future reconstruction of the Frontier policy. One important offshoot of the Frontier Uprising was the Tirah Valley expedition during which the British tried to punish those Afridi tribes who had been responsible for the mischief.

    Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: PAK17193 Country: Pakistan Date: 14 February 2005 Keywords: Pakistan – NWFP – Khatm-e-Manshiat – Sahar Newspaper –Afridi clan This response was prepared by the Country Research Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. Any information on the movement Khatm-e- Manshiat would be of assistance. 2. Any information on the newspaper Sahar would be of assistance. 3. What information is available on the “Afridi clan” and any connections with narcotics trafficking? RESPONSE 1. Any information on the movement Khatm-e- Manshiat would be of assistance. Information from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) indicates the organisation called Khatm-e-Manchiate does exist. It was reportedly an anti-drug organisation, formed in the mid 1980’s, and based in the North-West Frontier Province (NWFP). The pertinent extract follows in detail: Khatm-e-Manchiate was an anti-drug organization which had a close relationship with the National Awami Party, one of the largest political parties in Pakistan’s North-West Frontier Province (NWFP). Khatm-e-Manchiate was formed in the mid 1980’s, however its impact on preventing drug use in the NWFP was limited. The group, although technically still in existence, is no longer operational. Both Khatm-e-Manchiate and the now defunct Tehrik-e- Surkhposhtan (an anti-colonial movement formed in NWFP before partition) had close associations with the Afghan intelligence agency, KHAD (DIMIA Country Information Service 2002, Country Information Report No 52/02 – Khatm-e-Manchiate, (sourced from DFAT advice of 6 March 2002), 11 March – Attachment 1).

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT The thesis begins by describing the socio-political and economic organisation of the tribes of Waziristan in the mid-nineteenth century, as well as aspects of their culture, attention being drawn to their egalitarian ethos and the importance of tarburwali, rivalry between patrilateral parallel cousins. It goes on to examine relations between the tribes and the British authorities in the first thirty years after the annexation of the Punjab. Along the south Waziristan border, Mahsud raiding was increasingly regarded as a problem, and the ways in which the British tried to deal with this are explored; in the 1870s indirect subsidies, and the imposition of ‘tribal responsibility’ are seen to have improved the position, but divisions within the tribe and the tensions created by the Second Anglo- Afghan War led to a tribal army burning Tank in 1879.

Human societies throughout the world and in all the ages have been organised into groups and these groups have been arranged in certain order of hierarchy. Sociologists are always eager in providing interpretation to the system of hierarchy and the placement of individuals in different groups in the hierarchy. Generally society's stratification system has been argued in terms of two broad approachefii. One is based on the Marxian interpretation to the nature of human relationships, popularly known as conflict approach or class approach to social stratification. Opposed to this approach, there are sociologists who prefer to analyse the social stratification system on functional line. Muslim society in principle negates the operation of any stratification in society, but in actual practice they are also stratified in terms of different groups and categories, present study "stratification Among Pathans of Farrukhabad Distt," is an attempt to imdeirstand the nature of social stratification and the notion of inequality.
