The Effect On The Nations Army

As the partition has affected both Muslims and non-Muslims, the partition also affected the nation’s army system. There was an army division to the British Indian Army and Royal Indian Navy, the Indian Civil service, the central treasury, and the railways. Besides, the partition brought about the Indian independence act in the year 1947, while the dissolution of the old British Raj can also be referred to as the Crown rule in India. Based on this partition, the self-governing countries of Pakistan and India came into existence on the 15 of August in the year 1947.

Displaced People

Although the dissolution of the two regions created two different nations, India and Pakistan, there are so many displaced people. The number of people displaced was said to be between 10 and 20 million along the religious line. This displacement created an overwhelming number of refugee crises for both new countries, which challenging to manage. The two dominions struggled to bring the situation under control, which significantly affected many people’s beliefs. Some were confused about which religion and cultural belief they were to follow. Amid these challenges for the two authorities, it was reported that there was a significant scale of violence, and many lives were lost due to the disputed partition. As a result of the violence that erupted during the division, this created an atmosphere of suspicion and some level of hatred for each other (India and Pakistan), which greatly affected their relationship as a country to date.

What The Partition Does Not Include

Although the partition was aimed at creating India and Pakistan, this partition did not cover some areas from the old country: Bangladesh, Burma, and Sri Lanka. Though there was trouble and unrest when the partition occurred, some states did not experience the troubles during the partition period based on religious beliefs. Territories like French India were totally excluded from the partition from 1947 to 1954; meanwhile, some aspects of Portuguese of Indias only came to merge with India in 1961. Furthermore, some of the new kingdoms that had their political settings were left untouched during the partition. Some of this kingdom includes Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives, and Sikkim.

It’s all about power and the ultimte control of Karachi.

The actual problem is that with the end of tenure of Nazims and the local governments, MQM is fearing (justifiably) losing control of their powerbase of Karachi and Hyderabad. While PPP is eyeing regaining the control of Karachi with the departure of Nazims and with the introduction of bureacrats. Even Jamat e Islami and ANP and Sunni Tehrik have gone into the background and now in the ring, the fight is in progress between the coalition partners in the Sindh.

Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah is blaming MQM for the killings of PPP workers, while coordination committee of MQM is pointing fingers at the PPP for the murders of their workers and sympathisers. Tongue lashing is at its maximum from both sides, while the Karachiites are terrified and awaiting for a new round of bloodshed and chaos.

Shaukat Khanum Cancer Hospital in Lahore is fully functional and giving unprecedented service to thousands of people for free. Now Namal University is about to be functional in a matter of days and then the people of Mianwali, Bannu, Lakki Marwat, Kundian, Attock and many other remote areas would be able to study on the modern lines in one of the best universities in the Pakistan equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and run by the able staff of Bradford University, UK of which Imran Khan is also a chancellor.

Namal College has become an associate college of the Bradford University and already 60 students have commenced their studies at this joint which is surrounded by beautiful lake and mountains and lush green plains and sheer poverty.

Mianwali is one of the most backward areas of Pakistan, and it is marred with little industry, poor educational opportunities and outcomes, and high unemployment. Due to the ignorance and feudal culture, many people of Mianwali (especially Dr. Sher Afgun, the parliamentary affair minister of Pervez Musharraf government) put many obstacles in the way of this university and they tried to divide the people on ethnic grounds.

They put the blame on Imran Khan that he was establishment university in the area of Awans and was depriving Niazis. These people threatened the architects, masons, contractors and other staff throughout these three years, but Imran’s resolve enabled the area to have it’s first university, and it would surely play a pivotal role in bringing prosperity in this area.

I urge the Pakistanis that they please donate more and more for this promising project as they helped Imran in the establishment of Cancer Hospital.
