Pakistan Situation Report #7- NWFP Displacement 3 July 2009 Pakistan Situation Report #7- NWFP Displacement 3 July 2009 This report was issued by OCHA HQ with a coverage period from 24 June to 30 June. The next report will be issued on or around 10 July, 2009. Conflict Zones by Union Councils in Malakand Division as defined by the Home & Tribal Affairs Department of the NWFP Government I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES • Camps and shelters are being reinforced to prepare for the July monsoon rains. • There are now a total of 45 humanitarian hubs, in and out of camps. The provision of water/ sanitation and shelter materials is a priority for IDPs in host communities. In June, over 20,500 MT of food was distributed to IDPs in camps and host communities. • Local authorities estimate that about 30 percent of IDPs from Buner have returned to their place of origin in the last three weeks. • The Provincial Rehabilitation, Reconstruction and Settlement Authority (PRRSA) was created on 29 June. II. Situation Overview Source: Government of NWFP, Home & Tribal Affairs Department, June 29, 2009 According to the Provincial Government, the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) has so far verified 270,000 families or approximately 1.9 million people. NADRA has also reported that 563 families have successfully using the ‘redressal’ system that has been established to deal with appeals on IDP status. The Provincial Government continues the distribution of cash grants to registered IDPs through debit cards, amounting to Rp 25,000 (about US$308). The debit cards can be used in automatic teller machines and banks and this method is currently being piloted in five camps (Jalozai, Akora Khattak, Gohati and Chotta Lahore in Swabi, and Government College Charsadda). As of 30 June, NADRA reported that over 56,000 families have received their cards and Rp 850 million was dispensed in close to some 54,000 ATM and point of sale transactions. NADRA also reports that the trend of withdrawing small amounts at a time is continuing. There are now a total of 45 humanitarian hubs, in and out of camps. The hubs are being used to distribute Non-Food Items (NFIs) and hygiene kits as well as food. Camps are currently being assessed for their vulnerability to the upcoming monsoon rains. There is still a need for additional land to assist in decongesting existing camps as well as providing space for newly arrived IDPs and those from spontaneous shelters. The provision of water/ sanitation and shelter materials is a priority for IDPs in host communities. Findings from a 25 June multi cluster assessment to Buner supported NADRA verified data showing that, of the 650,000 people in the district, 66,488 families or 465,416 individuals have been displaced. This is almost 71 percent of the area’s population, out of which an estimated 30 percent of IDPs have returned to their places of origin in the last three weeks. Based on interviews, it is estimated that an average of 300 families return to Buner every day. According to Government sources, eight out of 27 Union Councils in Buner remain insecure. A union council or village council is the first level of government administration in the country and each council has a population of about 25,000. The mission of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) is to mobilize and coordinate effective and principled humanitarian action in partnership with national and international actors. Pakistan Situation Report #7, June 24 to 30, 2009 Electricity has been restored in 60 percent of Buner. Local authorities estimate that electricity will be fully restored within a week. Authorities also estimate that 30 percent of landlines as well as three mobile networks have been restored. Approximately 75 percent of water supplies have also been restored. In addition, an ICRC1 assessment in three areas in Buner (Daggar, Sultan Was, Pir Baba), between 17 to 27 June, found that part of Northern Buner's population had moved towards the Southern areas of the district. The ICRC assisted many of the displaced with food rations. A multi cluster preparedness assessment is currently taking place in Bhakkar, Punjab. The assessment is looking at options for delivering assistance for potential displaced populations from South Waziristan into the southern NWFP districts of DI Khan and Tank. III. Humanitarian Needs and Response Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) Needs: The Shelter Cluster is developing a detailed, technical plan to prepare camps for the monsoon rains. Currently, drainage systems are being constructed, reinforced and maintained in most IDP camps in preparation for the monsoon rains which usually begin in July. Particular attention is being given to low-lying camps which could potentially flood, such as Palosa (I & II) camp in Charsadda District and Sheikh Yasin camp in Mardan District. Further measures are also needed to decongest camps to build required structures to protect against rain and flooding. Response: Given the challenges on the ground, the CCCM Cluster is monitoring, to the best of its ability, the movement of camp populations which is trending, at present, to a number of IDP families returning to the areas of Buner and Bajaur. During the reporting period, checks in Phases 10 to 12 of Jalozai camp in Nowshera District confirmed there were 4,390 people who left, and that 32 tents and 23 plots of land were empty. During the last week, 479 families (2,874 individuals based on a six person family) left Yar Hussain camp in Swabi District to return to Buner District. IDPs took with them their Non-Food Items (NFIs) while some IDPs also took bricks provided to construct individual kitchens. Implementing partners have reported that on the other hand, a new flow of IDPs is likely arriving to the camps as their resources become depleted and the strain on host communities grows. The Center of Excellence for Rural Development (CERD) organised a new pilot project in Sheikh Shahzad camp to set up a complaint/suggestion box to redress community grievances. Results are still pending as this project started a week ago.. Gaps /Challenges: There remains a need to improve reporting mechanisms from the field by building the capacity of the Cluster’s implementing partners. Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Items (NFIs) Needs: Since most IDPs live with host families outside camps in overcrowded accommodations, there is an urgent need to provide them shelter and other priority goods including jerry cans, kitchen sets and blankets. Many IDPs outside camps also live in host family courtyards, backyards, and terraces, with no roof. The Shelter Cluster is also preparing a detailed, technical plan to prepare camps for the coming monsoon season. See the CCCM Cluster for more information. Response: Since the last reporting period, UN-HABITAT distributed 700 tents and over 900 house-repair kits to IDPs living in host communities in Mardan and Swabi Districts. Since 22 June, the Sarhad Rural Support Programme (SRSP) has distributed NFI packages to 92,220 people or 15,370 families in Charsadda, Nowshera and Mardan Districts. In camps, Emergency Shelter Cluster partners continued building culturally-necessary purdah or privacy walls for female IDPs, kitchens for families and erecting shading structures over tents to bring relief from the high The mission of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) is to mobilize and coordinate effective and principled humanitarian action in partnership with national and international actors. 2 Pakistan Situation Report #7, June 24 to 30, 2009 summer temperatures. IDP families are also starting to build drains around their tents to prepare for the monsoon rains expected in mid-July. Gaps /Challenges: There remains a need to improve reporting mechanisms from the field by building capacity of the Cluster’s implementing partners. Food Security Needs: The Office of the Commissioner, Afghan Refugees (Commissionerate of Afghan Refugees) in Peshawar stated that in June, 903 IDP families (5,002 individuals), mainly from Buner, started returning to their places of origin and will need food assistance. In order to meet the needs of the returning population, there is a need to replenish stocks of biscuits and pulses. Response: Since 3 June, in camps, and since 11 June, in host communities, WFP has distributed 20,500 MT of food to almost 1.5 million IDPs. During the reporting period, the Provincial Government’s Emergency Response Unit (ERU) provided 5,000 food packets including wheat flour, oil, and dry milk for IDPs in Malakand organised by the Malakand District Council Office. The ERU also provided IDPs with 400 food packets in Katlang in Mardan District. Following OCHA’s initial assessment in Bajaur in June, WFP, in conjunction with the Political Agent in Bajaur Agency. decided to start food distribution from the Bajaur food distribution hub on 1 July. This will assist the returning IDPs to the area. To help prevent IDPs from receiving multiple food baskets, WFP developed an online data verification system linking all 45 humanitarian hubs. In case of internet disruptions, staff at a dedicated call centre in Peshawar can also verify the data. These two tools will ensure that IDPs receive their monthly food packet from a single distribution hub. The ICRC continues to support the Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS) in Shah Mansoor camp by providing IDPs with food and non-food items including stoves. It is also providing displaced people in Rangmela and Palai camps, in Malakand District,with food and firewood to prepare cooked meals. Gaps /Challenges: The Food Cluster is only 52 percent funded against the Revised Appeal. Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Needs: WASH was part of the multi-cluster assessment in Buner on 25 June and findings show that WASH interventions in the places of origin (return), particularly Buner, will be a challenge.

  • Islamist Politics in South Asia After the Arab Spring: Parties and Their Proxies Working With—And Against—The State
    RETHINKING POLITICAL ISLAM SERIES August 2015 Islamist politics in South Asia after the Arab Spring: Parties and their proxies working with—and against—the state WORKING PAPER Matthew J. Nelson, SOAS, University of London SUMMARY: Mainstream Islamist parties in Pakistan such as the Jama’at-e Islami and the Jamiat-e-Ulema-e-Islam have demonstrated a tendency to combine the gradualism of Brotherhood-style electoral politics with dawa (missionary) activities and, at times, support for proxy militancy. As a result, Pakistani Islamists wield significant ideological influence in Pakistan, even as their electoral success remains limited. About this Series: The Rethinking Political Islam series is an innovative effort to understand how the developments following the Arab uprisings have shaped—and in some cases altered—the strategies, agendas, and self-conceptions of Islamist movements throughout the Muslim world. The project engages scholars of political Islam through in-depth research and dialogue to provide a systematic, cross-country comparison of the trajectory of political Islam in 12 key countries: Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Syria, Jordan, Libya, Pakistan, as well as Malaysia and Indonesia. This is accomplished through three stages: A working paper for each country, produced by an author who has conducted on-the-ground research and engaged with the relevant Islamist actors. A reaction essay in which authors reflect on and respond to the other country cases. A final draft incorporating the insights gleaned from the months of dialogue and discussion. The Brookings Institution is a nonprofit organization devoted to independent research and policy solutions. Its mission is to conduct high-quality, independent research and, based on that research, to provide innovative, practical recommendations for policymakers and the public.

Prior to September, attempts by the United Nations and donor governments to bring the warring Afghan factions to the negotiating table had failed. Despite this, some 21,000 refugees returned from Pakistan with UNHCR assistance. They were mostly Pashtuns who said they were going back to Afghanistan because they could no longer afford to live in Pakistan, where employment opportunities were becoming increasingly rare, and because they feared being deported. At the same time, more than 140,000 Afghans returned spontaneously from the Islamic Republic of Iran, without seeking assis- tance from UNHCR. Others, however, continued to flee to neighbouring countries in search of assistance. The Islamic Afghanistan Republic of Iran and Pakistan, meanwhile, adopted Islamic Republic of Iran a closed border policy and deported Afghans who Pakistan did not have the required travel documents. 75190 Caswaname 13/06/02 16:20 Side 271 South-West Asia South-West In the spring, in an apparent bid to deter Afghans ble cases to enter the country, authorising UNHCR from entering Pakistan, the Government of to establish a pre-registration camp near the border Pakistan stopped transferring newly arrived at Chaman, and to move new arrivals to new camps Afghans from a makeshift camp at Jalozai, where conditions were very bad, to more suitable Persons of Concern to UNHCR locations.

    ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECONNAISSANCE IN AKORA KHATTAK, DISTRICT NOWSHERA, KHYBER PUKHTUNKHWA, PAKISTAN DR. SHABANA SHAMAAS GUL KHATTAK* DR. SADEED ARIF** *Assistant Professor, International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan Email: [email protected] **Assistant Professor, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad, Pakistan Email: [email protected] This study is about some archaeological sites in Akora Khattak, an eastern located town of District Nowshera, Khyber Pukhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The town is well-known among the natives as being a birth and burial place of the great Pukhtun warrior leader and poet Khushal Khan Khattak. There are also many historical, archaeological and cultural sites in the town. The current, study is about three of such sites; Akbar’s Caravanserai (Rang MaÍal), Sher Shah Suri’s BÉoli (steps-well) and a Hindus’ Spiritual Bath (AshnÉn GhÉt) in the middle of the River Kabul. It also focuses on a brief history about the land and people of Akora Khattak with special reference to its archaeological localities. The study recommends further intensive studies and urgent renovations of the sites because of their historical and archaeological momentousness. Keywords: Akora Khattak, Caravanserai, Rang MaÍal, BÉoli, AshnÉn ghÉt Introduction Akora Khattak is named after Malik Akore Khan (or Malik Akorey), Khushal Khan Khattak’s great-grand father. The town is located on the Grand Trunk (GT) Road, about 9 miles towards east of Nowshera, (District Nowshera, Khyber Pukhtunkhwa, Pakistan).

    Floods in Pakistan Pakistan Health Cluster Bulletin No 6 5 August, 2010 Out -patient consultation in a static clinic operating in Nowshera district-Photo by Syed Haider Ali-WHO-EHA Highlights: Around 1.6 million people have been affected overnight in Punjab. A multi cluster rapid assessment mission (MCRAM) has commenced on 5 August. Infrastructure damage is hampering access to public health facilities in multiple locations in Khyber Paktunkhwa. The flood waters continue to destroy South of Punjab while heavy rains crippled lives in upper Sindh. One alert of acute watery diarrhea was reported from Chendangari village of FR Peshawar area where 70 patients have been reported so far though unconfirmed sources WHO, Government and Health Cluster partners are continuing the health response and struggling to reach communities and individuals in areas which are inaccessible. Situation Overview and Current Scope of Disaster Exact figures of deaths are still not clear but at least over 1,500 people have lost their lives with over a thousand injured. Initial findings of a WFP assessment suggest that some 250,000 families or 1.8 million people would be in need of assistance in KPK alone. These figures may rise as more areas are becoming accessible. The number of flood affectees in Punjab province is reported to be nearly 1.4 million people. According to UNOCHA some 4 million people have been affected due to country wide floods in Pakistan. Currently the flood wave of Indus River is in Muzaffargarh district (Southern Punjab) and after devastating Kot Addu town, it has entered Kot Mithon.
