  • Deforestation in the Princely State of Dir on the North-West Frontier and the Imperial Strategy of British India
    Central Asia Journal No. 86, Summer 2020 CONSERVATION OR IMPLICIT DESTRUCTION: DEFORESTATION IN THE PRINCELY STATE OF DIR ON THE NORTH-WEST FRONTIER AND THE IMPERIAL STRATEGY OF BRITISH INDIA Saeeda & Khalil ur Rehman Abstract The Czarist Empire during the nineteenth century emerged on the scene as a Eurasian colonial power challenging British supremacy, especially in Central Asia. The trans-continental Russian expansion and the ensuing influence were on the march as a result of the increase in the territory controlled by Imperial Russia. Inevitably, the Russian advances in the Caucasus and Central Asia were increasingly perceived by the British as a strategic threat to the interests of the British Indian Empire. These geo- political and geo-strategic developments enhanced the importance of Afghanistan in the British perception as a first line of defense against the advancing Russians and the threat of presumed invasion of British India. Moreover, a mix of these developments also had an impact on the British strategic perception that now viewed the defense of the North-West Frontier as a vital interest for the security of British India. The strategic imperative was to deter the Czarist Empire from having any direct contact with the conquered subjects, especially the North Indian Muslims. An operational expression of this policy gradually unfolded when the Princely State of Dir was loosely incorporated, but quite not settled, into the formal framework of the imperial structure of British India. The elements of this bilateral arrangement included the supply of arms and ammunition, subsidies and formal agreements regarding governance of the state. These agreements created enough time and space for the British to pursue colonial interests in Ph.D.

  • Survey of Ecotourism Potential in Pakistan's Biodiversity Project Area (Chitral and Northern Areas): Consultancy Report for IU
    Survey of ecotourism potential in Pakistan’s biodiversity project area (Chitral and northern areas): Consultancy report for IUCN Pakistan John Mock and Kimberley O'Neil 1996 Keywords: conservation, development, biodiversity, ecotourism, trekking, environmental impacts, environmental degradation, deforestation, code of conduct, policies, Chitral, Pakistan. 1.0.0. Introduction In Pakistan, the National Tourism Policy and the National Conservation Strategy emphasize the crucial interdependence between tourism and the environment. Tourism has a significant impact upon the physical and social environment, while, at the same time, tourism's success depends on the continued well-being of the environment. Because the physical and social environment constitutes the resource base for tourism, tourism has a vested interest in conserving and strengthening this resource base. Hence, conserving and strengthening biodiversity can be said to hold the key to tourism's success. The interdependence between tourism and the environment is recognized worldwide. A recent survey by the Industry and Environment Office of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP/IE) shows that the resource most essential for the growth of tourism is the environment (UNEP 1995:7). Tourism is an environmentally-sensitive industry whose growth is dependent upon the quality of the environment. Tourism growth will cease when negative environmental effects diminish the tourism experience. By providing rural communities with the skills to manage the environment, the GEF/UNDP funded project "Maintaining Biodiversity in Pakistan with Rural Community Development" (Biodiversity Project), intends to involve local communities in tourism development. The Biodiversity Project also recognizes the potential need to involve private companies in the implementation of tourism plans (PC II:9).

  • A Short Note on Archaeological Discoveries in Chitral, Pakistan 1
    Ancient Pakistan, Vol. XV, 2002 179 A Short Note on Archaeological Discoveries in Chitral, Pakistan 1 MUHAMMAD NASIM KHAN The Chitral Valley surrounded by the lofty Hindukush Mountains, dominated by the commanding peak of Tirich Mir, has inherited from nature a fuJI range of exquisite charms. Situated in north Pakistan, it is bordered on the west and north by Afghanistan (the Wakhan corridor), China and the Central Asian republics in the north and north-west, Jammu and Kashmir in the east, and the districts of Dir and Swat in the east and south. It is a big territory, hemmed by mountains with an average altitude of 6,000-m (20,000 ft), gifted with fantastic gorges, beautiful side valleys, glaciers, icy-torrents and vast expanse of arid hills. The surrounding mountains are sources of a number of perennial tributaries to the river Kabul. Travelling by road to Chitral via Lowari Pass is very exhausting, while by air it is uncertain due to rough weather. As soon as one crosses the pass or boards off the plane, he feels awe-struck at the sight of surrounding gigantic mountains, strong winds and alien culture and language. But hospitality and gentleness of the local people let him feel at home and comfortable, more so, especially when he travels about deeper in the Valley. Explorers and travellers have left few records about Chitral, especially in the field of archaeology. These discoveries include a Brahm'i inscription at Barenis and a rock-carved stupa with a Brahmi inscription in Torkoh.2 Earlier to this, Stacul of the Italian Archaeological Mission had explored some protohistoric gravesites here.
