Background of the Study
Khanozai of Pishin district is the tehsil head quarter of
Tehsil Karezat and it serves as Municipal Committee
under local government system. In total, there are Nine
(9) Union Councils (UCs) in Tehsil Karezat.

Khanozai town basically comprises three main villages

besides many small and scattered clusters of dwellings
i.e. Dadhaqzai, Saki Zai and Saleh Zai. Geographically, it
is located at Latitude 30°37'15.64"N and longitude
67°20'20.99"E. It is situated at a height of 6457 ft. above
the sea level (Google Earth, 2014). Strategically, it has
got very important position due to two considerable
reasons. Firstly, it is located on the national highway N-
50, which provides a smooth and easy access of
transportation both to social and commercial sectors;
secondly, it serves as a junction for the neighboring 5
districts. Khanozai is situated 75 KM away in the
Northeast of the provincial capital Quetta. It is at distance
of 38 KM from District Pishin and in the west there is
District Zhob at 225 KM. In the north, there is Barshore
sub-division, in the south the limits of Khanozai extends
to Ziarat District. In the East, it connects with Loralai
District through Rod Malazai via Spera Ragha Road. In
the Northeast, there is Killa Saifullah District. In the West,
Khanozai meets with Pishin through Surkhab Camp (the
famous Afghan Refugee camp) via Surkhab Road.

Khanozai of Pishin District is growing rapidly but in an

unplanned manner since its inception. The rural to
urban migration, increase in population, low education
level, poverty and poor administrative control has
given rise to all sorts of urban problems in the area.

Realizing the importance of master planning of towns,

the Government of Balochistan aspire to have master
planning of all important towns so that provision of civil
facilities may be provided to local people in planned

2
manner and on the basis of proper need assessment.
With the formulation of plan all basis civic facilities may
be identified and provided in the town catering the
need of growing population for next 50 years.

Once the master plan identifies the short and long

term developmental interventions for Khanozai town,
the same shall be constructed. Emergent nature
schemes shall be prioritized to be constructed as short
term interventions based on recommendations of the
Master Plan.

Description of Khanozai
The word “Khanozai” is the combination of two words
Pashto words “Khano” and “zoi” which means the ‘son of
Khano’. Historically speaking, Pani (the founder of
Panezai tribe) had two sons; first’s name was “Khano”
and seconds name was “Balo”. It is said that they were
nomadic shepherds and with passage of time, to fulfill the
requirements of life they adopted farming as occupation.
These two brothers are said to constitute Panezai tribe.
As the sub-cast of Kakar, Panezai belong to Pashtun
nation.

Khanozai is the tehsil head quarter of Tehsil Karezat and

it serves as Municipal Committee under local government
system. In total, there are Nine (9) Union Councils (UCs)
in Tehsil Karezat.

i) Location
Khanozai town basically comprises three main villages
besides many small and scattered clusters of dwellings
i.e. Dadhaqzai, Saki Zai and Saleh Zai. Geographically, it
is located at Latitude 30°37'15.64"N and longitude
67°20'20.99"E. It is situated at a height of 6457 ft. above
the sea level (Google Earth, 2014). Strategically, it has
got very important position due to two considerable
reasons. Firstly, it is located on the national highway N-

3
50, which provides a smooth and easy access of
transportation both to social and commercial sectors;
secondly, it serves as a junction for the neighboring 5
districts. Khanozai is situated 75 KM away in the
Northeast of the provincial capital Quetta. It is at distance
of 38 KM from District Pishin and in the west there is
District Zhob at 225 KM. In the north, there is Barshore
sub-division, in the south the limits of Khanozai extends
to Ziarat District. In the East, it connects with Loralai
District through Rod Malazai via Spera Ragha Road. In
the Northeast, there is Killa Saifullah District. In the West,
Khanozai meets with Pishin through Surkhab Camp (the
famous Afghan Refugee camp) via Surkhab Road.

ii) Topography
Topography Physically Khanozai is the land of contrasts
and the general character of the area is mountainous.
The valley of Khanozai shrinks while moving towards
west from the north and south. Strong physical bodies’
bound that is hill ranges called as sub-recent rocks and
Muslim Bagh intrusion respectively. The middle area of
Khanozai consists of plain area. The area which is
covered by the plain in the southern west is called
Khushab Basin. b. Barani Streams Khanozai receives
very less amount of annual rainfall, therefore, only Barani
streams are present in the area. From the east of Rod
Malazai stream runs to Pishin after passing through
Khanozai. When it enters Surkhab area then it is called
as Surkhab Lora, it finally ends into Band Khushdal
Khan, Pishin. In the south, the Manda of Zarghoon (Local
Name) runs to the southern west. Barani stream runs
from Churmian towards District Pishin after crossing
Balozai.

iii) Climate
The climate of the Khanozai is warm in summer and very
cold in winter. The area is outside the moon soon
currents, therefore, receive negligible amount of rains
during summer. Most of rainfall is occurs in winter,

4
however, it is irregular and scanty. Snow fall usually
occurs during the month of January and February. July is
the hottest month with mean maximum and minimum
temperatures of 35 ºC and 19 ºC respectively while
January is the coldest month with mean maximum and
minimum temperatures of 10 ºC and -3 ºC respectively.
However, in some cases the temperatures down even up
to -14 ºC. Khanozai is influenced by the local steppe
climate. According to Köppen and Geiger, climate of
Khanozai is classified as BSk (Climate-Data.Org, 2014).
There are several climatic indicators which are being
used to analyze the climate of any area. These indicators
include; temperature, humidity, and precipitation etc.
Temperature refers to the degree of hotness and
coldness; humidity refers to the amount of moisture
content in the air, while precipitation is the total amount of
moisture contents deposited on the surface of earth such
as rainfall, hail and snow etc. As there is no
meteorological station in District Pishin; therefore, the
exact statistics on the climatic indicators of Khanozai are
not available. However, there is a considerable
resemblance among the climate of Quetta and Khanozai.
Therefore, the climatic indicators of Quetta and Kach
(Ziarat) where the closest meteorological station works;
hence taken as proxies for Khanozai’s climate. In the
table below, there is the climatic data for climatic
indicators such as relative humidity and temperature for
the period of Thirty (30) years i.e. (1961-1990). While the
precipitation data is for 35 years from 1975 till 2010,
recorded at Kach meteorological station.

iv) Economy

The nature has blessed Khanozai with two types of

physical resources i.e. agriculture and mineral
resources. The agriculture sector has long been the
dominant and flourishing resource of the area. Wheat,
barely, cumin, vegetables and fodder, melon, tobacco,
potato, onion, vegetables and fodder are grown in the

5
area. These are cash crops and contributing as prompt
financial support for farmers. The farmer of the area
use scarce water resources in an efficient and
effective manner.

The farmers in Khanozai are highly commercialized

and produce market crops. They have expanded their
cropping pattern from subsistence to high valued cash
crops over the years. Horticulture is the prominent
sub-sector of the Khanozai and enormous quantities of
good qualities of apple - Tor Colo, Shin Colo and Gaja,
etc., are produced. Fruit production is also now
dominating in the area as it requires less amount of
water compared to those of apple. It may easily be
concluded that horticulture remains a dominant sector
in the area’s economy.

The raising of livestock is another important sector in

Khanozai. It is a major source of income, as large
number of small ruminants is exported to the other
areas. At household level, goats and sheep are
generally reared. Besides them, cows are also
domesticated for fulfilling the milk requirements at
households along with rearing for commercial
purposes. The presence of pasture and grazing lands
near the Sahibzada Karez has provided highly
productive fields for livestock raising. ,

Potential of mining resources in Khanozai, little of

them has been explored and extracted in the last few
decades. However, in the recent past Chromite has
been extracted on large scale from “Tora Khula” (local
name of the village) and the adjacent areas, situated in
the mountains range known as Shirinab Formation, in
the southern east of Khanozai city.

Chromite are found in Ultramafic Rocks in Khanozai

(MTEQ Pakistan, 2014).

6
 v) Population
According to Population census of Pakistan 2017, the
population of Tehsil karezat is 138,280.

According to the rules of Balochistan Local

Government Act 2010, Municipal Committees are
constituted for those areas where population ranges
from 20,000-25,000. The Municipal Committees are
responsible to provide public health, water supply,
drains, articles of food and drink, animals and cattle,
education,
