  • Multivariate Analysis for the Assessment of Herbaceous Roadsides Vegetation of Wah Cantonment
    Bashir et al., The Journal of Animal & Plant Sciences, 26(2): 2016, Page:J.457 Anim.-464 Plant Sci. 26(2):2016 ISSN: 1018-7081 MULTIVARIATE ANALYSIS FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF HERBACEOUS ROADSIDES VEGETATION OF WAH CANTONMENT H. Bashir, S. S. Ahmad*, A. Jabeen and S. Erum Department of Environmental Sciences, Fatima Jinnah Women University, Rawalpindi, Pakistan. *Corresponding Author’s email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present research was conducted along the roadside of Wah Cantonment to determine the associations and relationships between the plant communities and soil, grouping and quantification of plant communities using multivariate ordination techniques. Braun-Blanquet technique was applied for herbaceous data collection and quadrats of 1 1 square meter were laid. The whole floristic data were collected from 50 different sites through random sampling and cover values for plants were predicted through visual estimation.A whole of 36 species belonging to 18 different families were indentified. The ordination techniques of TWINSPAN (Two Way Indicator Species Analysis) and DCA (Detrended Correspondence Analysis) were carried out to classify the data. TWINSPANdivided the whole data into four groups with two major groups having communities of Vicia-Verbena, Convolvulus-Parthenium, Cynodon-Rumex and Euphorbia- Lepidium while minor groups had communities of Cannabis-Dicliptera and Coronopus-Sisymbrium. DCAwas used to classify the data and it identified the cluster of species in ordinate space, divided the data in four groups, and verified the results obtained from TWINSPAN. Cynodondactylon and Cannabis sativa were emerged as the most dominant and second dominant species after DCA.The present study will provide the baseline information about the roadside vegetation of Wah Cantonment and will be helpful for preserving and better management of the native flora.

  • PAKISTAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pakistan Is a Federal Republic. With
    PAKISTAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Pakistan is a federal republic. With the election of current president and head of state, Asif Ali Zardari, democratic rule was restored in 2008 after years of military government. Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) served as prime minister and head of government. The PPP and its federal coalition partners controlled the executive and legislative branches of the national government and three of the four provincial assemblies. The military and intelligence services nominally reported to civilian authorities but essentially operated without effective civilian oversight. Generally, the police force reported to civilian authority, although there were instances in which it acted independently. The most serious human rights problems were extrajudicial killings, torture, and disappearances committed by security forces, as well as by militant, terrorist, and extremist groups, which affected thousands of citizens in nearly all areas of the country. Two prominent political figures, Punjab governor Salman Taseer and federal minister for minorities Shahbaz Bhatti, were assassinated due to their support for revisions of the blasphemy law and for Aasia Bibi, a Christian who had been sentenced to death under the law. Other human rights problems included poor prison conditions, instances of arbitrary detention, lengthy pretrial detention, a weak criminal justice system, insufficient training for prosecutors and criminal investigators, a lack of judicial independence in the lower courts, and infringements on citizens’ privacy rights. Harassment of journalists, some censorship, and self-censorship continued. There were some restrictions on freedom of assembly and some limits on freedom of movement. The number of religious freedom violations and discrimination against religious minorities increased, including some violations sanctioned by law.

  • Pakistan: Violence Vs. Stability
    PAKISTAN: VIOLENCE VS. STABILITY A National Net Assessment Varun Vira and Anthony H. Cordesman Arleigh A. Burke Chair in Strategy [email protected] Working Draft: 5 May 2011 Please send comments and suggested revisions and additions to [email protected] Vira & Cordesman: Pakistan: Violence & Stability 3/5/11 ii Executive Summary As the events surrounding the death of Osama Bin Laden make all too clear, Pakistan is passing through one of the most dangerous periods of instability in its history. This instability goes far beyond Al Qa‟ida, the Taliban, and the war in Afghanistan. A net assessment of the patterns of violence and stability indicate that Pakistan is approaching a perfect storm of threats, including rising extremism, a failing economy, chronic underdevelopment, and an intensifying war, resulting in unprecedented political, economic and social turmoil. The Burke Chair at CSIS has developed an working draft of a net assessment that addresses each of these threats and areas of internal violence in depth, and does so within in the broader context of the religious, ideological, ethnic, sectarian, and tribal causes at work; along with Pakistan‟s problems in ideology, politics, governance, economics and demographics. The net assessment shows that these broad patterns of violence in Pakistan have serious implications for Pakistan‟s future, for regional stability, and for core US interests. Pakistan remains a central node in global counterterrorism. Osama Bin Laden was killed deep inside Pakistan in an area that raises deep suspicion about what Pakistani intelligence, senior military officers and government officials did and did not know about his presence – and the presence of other major terrorists and extremist like Sheik Mullah Omar and the “Quetta Shura Taliban.” Pakistan pursues its own agenda in Afghanistan in ways that provide the equivalent of cross- border sanctuary for Taliban and Haqqani militants, and that prolong the fighting and cause serious US, ISAF, and Afghan casualties.
