Pakistan: A Historical Odyssey (1947-2023) - Part 2 Explained By AbuBakar Irfan...

Title: Pakistan's Journey: 1947-2023 - Part 2


Building Up the Economy, Making Life Better, and Being Friends with the World


Making Money and Growing Strong (2010s-2020s)


In the 2010s, Pakistan started doing things to make its economy better. The government took steps to collect more money, manage taxes well, and reduce the money it spent. These changes, along with investing in things like power and roads, began to show good results. A plan called Pakistan Vision 2025 gave a clear path for making the country's economy better, helping people more, and linking up with other countries nearby.


The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) became a big deal during this time. It brought lots of money into Pakistan for projects like power plants, roads, and factories. These projects helped make Pakistan's roads and buildings better and also helped the country work together with others nearby.


Making Life Better and Some Problems


Besides the money stuff, Pakistan also did things to improve how life is for people. Schools started having more students, and more kids went to the doctor when they were sick. But some problems still stuck around, like some people not being treated fairly because of their gender, or not having good schools and doctors nearby.


Pakistan worked hard to stop the bad things happening because of terrorism and fighting. The army did things to keep everyone safe, and the government made rules to fight against bad ideas that caused these problems.


Friends and Talking to Other Countries


Pakistan didn't just think about itself – it also made friends with other countries. China and Afghanistan became important friends, and working together helped everyone be more peaceful and do better in their countries. Pakistan also helped talk to different groups in Afghanistan to find a peaceful way for them to agree.


Looking Ahead: Figuring Out What's Next


So, from 1947 to 2023, Pakistan has faced many challenges, made things better, and tried to be friends with everyone. The journey wasn't always easy, but it taught Pakistan how to stand strong and move forward. Looking into the future, Pakistan needs to keep improving things for people, making sure everyone is treated right, and taking advantage of the opportunities that come its way. By doing this, Pakistan can shape a future that's even brighter and better.

A Comparison of Indian-Occupied Kashmir and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir: Governance, Human Rights, and Infrastructure Explained by Abubakar Irfan...

 Title: A Comparison of Indian-Occupied Kashmir and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir: Governance, Human Rights, and Infrastructure Introduction Kashmir is a beautiful place, known for its stunning landscapes and mountains. However, it has been divided between two countries, India and Pakistan. Indian-Occupied Kashmir (IOK) and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (POK) have their own ways of governing, human rights situations, and infrastructure challenges. Let's explore these aspects in simple language, also looking at the facilities and infrastructure available in both regions. Governance Indian-Occupied Kashmir (IOK): IOK is controlled directly by the Indian government. There is no separate legislative assembly currently. A person called the Lieutenant Governor represents the Indian government in IOK. This means that the central government in India makes most of the important decisions for the region. Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (POK): POK has its own legislative assembly, which means it has more s...

The Other Kashmiris: Forgotten Voices of Kotli, Rajouri & Beyond. (Part-2)

The Invisible Soldiers: Paharis and the Kashmir Jihad. By AbuBakar Irfan. The Kashmir conflict is often painted with a narrow brush, one that almost exclusively highlights the Valley and its struggle. Terms like "Kashmiri resistance" or "freedom fighters" usually conjure up images of Srinagar youth with stones in hand or insurgents operating in the dense forests of Kupwara. But this portrayal omits a crucial, often ignored truth: that Pahari-origin Kashmiris, particularly from Kotli, Mirpur, Poonch, Rajouri, and Bagh have made immense sacrifices in the Kashmir Jihad. Since the onset of the insurgency in 1989, the Kashmir Jihad has drawn thousands of volunteers, supporters, and sympathizers from both sides of the Line of Control (LoC). Among them, a significant number belonged not to the Valley, but to the mountainous and linguistically distinct regions of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK). These Pahari-speaking populations, often mocked or marginalized as "not real ...

Jammu & Kashmir: A History Bigger Than Just the Valley... Explained by AbuBakar Irfan. (Part-1)

  Title: The Other Kashmiris: Forgotten Voices of Kotli, Rajouri & Beyond. By AbuBakar Irfan. When the world speaks of Kashmir, it often conjures the image of the snow-covered valley of Srinagar, Dal Lake shimmering beneath the sky, and people caught in decades of conflict. But beyond this romanticized and media-centralized narrative lies a deeper, more complex truth, one that involves millions of people whose stories rarely get told. These are the people of Kotli, Rajouri, Mirpur, Poonch, Gilgit, Muzaffarabad, and other regions that were once part of the undivided princely state of Jammu and Kashmir. Despite their shared history and suffering, many of these communities today face marginalization, not only politically but also in identity. The Kashmir conflict, as it is known globally, has come to mean "the Valley conflict." This has inadvertently excluded voices from Jammu, Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), and Gilgit-Baltistan (GB), who continue to grapple with displacement...
