Having a temperate climate, it Burn Hall receives occasional mild snowfall in winters. ABHCG is a marvellous educational for College institution, founded in Srinagar in 1943 and shifted by Father Scanlon (the founder), to picturesque Abbottabad in 1948 because he was enchanted by “the brilliant show” Girls of the “trees and ground covered with snow”, its “lonesome streams”, its “welcoming winds” and the “very melodious songs of birds”. Since then it has been greatly serving the nation in education sector with excellence. When Major James Abbott (the founder of Abbottabad) left this mesmerizing place, he lamented his departure in his poem in the following words: Oh Abbottabad we are leaving you now To your natural beauty do I bow Perhaps your winds sound will never reach my ear My gift for you is a few sad tears I bid you farewell with a heavy heart Never from my mind will your memories thwart. 9 History of Burn Hall The name ‘Burn Hall’ stems from the streamlet “Burn” flowing close to a manor house “Hall” situated in Mill Hill (London). The foundation of the institution was laid by the fathers of Mill Hill in 1943 far across the oceans in the scenic valley of Srinagar. After the creation of Pakistan, the missionaries moved into an equally charming Abbottabad to continue their calling where they were supported by the provincial government of the day. Initially, a hotel building was used as school and after increase in the number of students new blocks were added to it. Nine years later, in 1956 a separate campus for elder lads, Senior Burn Hall, was established in the suburbs of the growing town. Girls Before Pakistan Army took over as its patron in January 1977, Burn Hall was managed by the Diocesan Board of Edu- cation, Rawalpindi. Later it was renamed as “Army Burn Hall” under the patronage of Pakistan Army. Intermediate level was started in 1991 and it undertook the running of graduation and Masters classes in 1999 and 2003 respectively. College for for College Due to the ever-mounting strength of students, a separate College campus for senior girls was built at Kakul Road in 2010. After addition of Pre-Montessori and Montessori in 2015, Burn Hall, as a veritable seat of learning, is matchlessly educating students up to post graduate level. Burn Hall Standing on its proud past, it has become one of the best institutions in Pakistan. This cradle of excellence, since Army Army its establishment, has been producing innumerable successful scholars, doctors, engineers, army officers, politicians, prominent professionals and numerous elegant brains who attained heights in serving the nation and humanity. 10 From the Desk of the Principal Army Army Burn Hall College for for College Girls I welcome you to Army Burn Hall College for Girls, Abbottabad.

    Pakistan’s ‘Mainstreaming’ Jihadis Vinay Kaura, Aparna Pande The emergence of the religious right-wing as a formidable political force in Pakistan seems to be an outcome of direct and indirect patron- age of the dominant military over the years. Ever since the creation of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan in 1947, the military establishment has formed a quasi alliance with the conservative religious elements who define a strongly Islamic identity for the country. The alliance has provided Islamism with regional perspectives and encouraged it to exploit the concept of jihad. This trend found its most obvious man- ifestation through the Afghan War. Due to the centrality of Islam in Pakistan’s national identity, secular leaders and groups find it extreme- ly difficult to create a national consensus against groups that describe themselves as soldiers of Islam. Using two case studies, the article ar- gues that political survival of both the military and the radical Islamist parties is based on their tacit understanding. It contends that without de-radicalisation of jihadis, the efforts to ‘mainstream’ them through the electoral process have huge implications for Pakistan’s political sys- tem as well as for prospects of regional peace. Keywords: Islamist, Jihadist, Red Mosque, Taliban, blasphemy, ISI, TLP, Musharraf, Afghanistan Introduction In the last two decades, the relationship between the Islamic faith and political power has emerged as an interesting field of political anal- ysis. Particularly after the revival of the Taliban and the rise of ISIS, Author. Article. Central European Journal of International and Security Studies 14, no. 4: 51–73.

    Passports to Privilege: the English-Medium Schools in Pakistan

    Peace and Democracy in South Asia, Volume 1, Number 1, January 2005. PASSPORTS TO PRIVILEGE: THE ENGLISH-MEDIUM SCHOOLS IN PAKISTAN TARIQ RAHMAN _____________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Based on two recent surveys of some selected urban areas of Pakistan, the author draws interesting conclusions in this article about the English-medium schools in Pakistan. The elites of the country have long realized the power of the English language and have even institutionalized the process of acquiring the same. As seen elsewhere in South Asia, the English-speaking elites of the country profess one thing about their national languages and practise something else for their own children. The craving for excellence in English language as a tool for a more successful life is not confined to the city elites but has penetrated the army, the air force, and the naval branches of a country that has frequently been ruled by army generals. It is also clear from this article that the privileged children of Pakistan are westernised in terms of lifestyle and liberal in attitude towards India, although after joining the state, they are seen supporting the militaristic policies of the state. _____________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION English is the official language of Pakistan. It is used in all domains of power - government, bureaucracy, military, judiciary, commerce, media, education and research - at the highest level. Because it is empowering to learn English, people all over the country are ready to invest in it for the future of their children. Because of this demand, all over the cities of Pakistan one can see boards advertising institutions which claim to be English-medium schools or tuition ‘centres’ claiming to teach spoken English and English for passing all kinds of examinations and interviews.

  • 10 Pakistan's Nuclear Program

    10 Pakistan's Nuclear Program

    10 PAKISTAN’S NUCLEAR PROGRAM Laying the groundwork for impunity C. Christine Fair Contemporary analysts of Pakistan’s nuclear program speciously assert that Pakistan began acquiring a nuclear weapons capability after the 1971 war with India in which Pakistan was vivisected. In this conventional account, India’s 1974 nuclear tests gave Pakistan further impetus for its program.1 In fact, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Pakistan’s first popularly elected prime minister, ini- tiated the program in the late 1960s despite considerable opposition from Pakistan’s first military dictator General Ayub Khan (henceforth Ayub). Bhutto presciently began arguing for a nuclear weapons program as early as 1964 when China detonated its nuclear devices at Lop Nor and secured its position as a permanent nuclear weapons state under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT). Considering China’s test and its defeat of India in the 1962 Sino–Indian war, Bhutto reasoned that India, too, would want to develop a nuclear weapon. He also knew that Pakistan’s civilian nuclear program was far behind India’s, which predated independence in 1947. Notwithstanding these arguments, Ayub opposed acquiring a nuclear weapon both because he believed it would be an expensive misadventure and because he worried that doing so would strain Pakistan’s western alliances, formalized through the Central Treaty Organization (CENTO) and the South-East Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO). Ayub also thought Pakistan would be able to buy a nuclear weapon “off the shelf” from one of its allies if India acquired one first.2 With the army opposition obstructing him, Bhutto was unable to make any significant nuclear headway until 1972, when Pakistan’s army lay in disgrace after losing East Pakistan in its 1971 war with India.
