Subsequently, the administrative control of the then Northern Areas (Now Gilgit-Baltistan) was also shifted from States and Frontier Regions Division (SAFRON) to this Ministry. In 1996, the Ministries of Kashmir Affairs & Northern Areas and States & Frontier Regions were merged; however, in June 2004 they were again bifurcated into two Ministries i.e. Ministry of Kashmir Affairs and Northern Areas and Ministry of States and Frontier Regions. Now the Ministry of Kashmir Affairs and Northern Areas has been renamed as Ministry of Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit-Baltistan. The Federal Government decided to further strengthen its past initiatives of 1975 and 1994 in order to consolidate the democratic process and to ensure autonomy in Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) and Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJ&K). In this regard, two major achievements of the government are; promulgation of the Gilgit- Baltistan (Empowerment and Self-Governance) Order, 2009, and holding of free and fair elections of AJ&K and GB Legislative Assemblies.

It is obviously your own institution that provides you the education facility at your door step. Allama Iqbal Open University is the unique in Pakistan which provides education to all citizens; without any discrimination of age, gender, ethnicity, region or religion. It is no doubt that our beloved country had been facing numerous issues since its creation. The initial days were very tough for the newly state but with the blessings of Allah Almighty, it made progress day by day. However, due to conspiracy of external powers and some weaknesses of our leaders, the internal situation of East Pakistan rapidly changed and the end was painful as we lost not only the land but also our Bengali brothers. After the war of 1971, the people and leaders of Pakistan were forced to rethink the future of the remaining country.
