Question No: 39 ( Marks: 10 )


How do you analyze Pakistan’s internal political development (1972-2008)?
Answer should be inclusive

Recently the Politics of Pakistan has taken place in the framework of a federal republic,
where the system of government has at times been parliamentary, presidential, or semi-
presidential. In the current semi-presidential system , the President of Pakistan is the
head of state, the Prime Minister is head of government, and there is a multi party
system. Executive power is exercised by the government. Legislative power is largely
vested in the Parliament. http://www.vustudents.net

Pakistan has been under the influence of its military almost since it was founded. The
Intelligence agencies have a huge role in the politics since the beginning in making and
breaking the political parties. The president, in keeping with the constitutional provision
that the state religion is Islam, must be a Muslim. Elected for a five-year term by an
Electoral College consisting of members of the Senate and National Assembly and
members of the provincial assemblies, the president is eligible for reelection. But no
individual may hold the office for more than two consecutive terms. The president may
resign or be impeached and may be removed from office for incapacity or gross
misconduct by a two-thirds vote of the members of the parliament. The president
generally acts on the advice of the prime minister but has important residual powers.
One of the most important--a legacy of Zia--is contained in the Eighth Amendment
which gives the president the power to dissolve the National Assembly "in his discretion
where, in his opinion . . . a situation has arisen in which the Government of the
Federation cannot be carried on in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution
and an appeal to the electorate is necessary." The Thirteenth Amendment which was
passed in 1997, revoked this power. In December 2003, the President's power was
partially restored by the Seventeenth Amendment. In April 2004, the Presidency's
influence was augmented by an Act of Parliament that established the National Security
Council, a body chaired by the President.

The prime minister is appointed by the members of the National Assembly through a
vote. The prime minister is assisted by the Federal Cabinet, a council of ministers whose
members are appointed by the president on the advice of the prime minister. The
Federal Cabinet comprises the ministers, ministers of state, and advisers. As of early
1994, there were thirty-three ministerial portfolios: commerce; communications;
culture; defence; defence production; education; environment; finance and economic
affairs; food and agriculture; foreign affairs; health; housing; information and
broadcasting; interior; Kashmiri affairs and Northern Areas; law and justice; local
government; minority affairs; narcotics control; parliamentary affairs; petroleum and
natural resources production; planning and development; railways; religious affairs;
science and technology; social welfare; special education; sports; state and frontier
regions; tourism; water and power; women's development; and youth affairs.

Syed Makhdoom Yousaf Raza Gilani (born June 9, 1952) is the 26th and current Prime
Minister of Pakistan. He was previously Speaker of the National Assembly (1993-1997)
and a Federal Minister (1985-1986, 1989-1990). Gilani is Vice-Chairman of the Pakistan
Peoples Party (PPP).

He was nominated as Prime Minister by the PPP, with the support of its coalition
partners, Pakistan Muslim League (N), Awami National Party, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F)
and Muttahida Qaumi Movement, on 22 March 2008. He took the oath of office from
President Pervez Musharraf on 25 March 2008. Gilani is the first elected Prime Minister
of Pakistan from the Saraiki-speaking belt. Gilani's political journey began during
General Zia-ul-Haq's martial law in 1978. He joined the Central Working Committee of
the Pakistan Muslim League (PML). He was also a cabinet member in the three-year
government of Prime Minister Muhammad Khan Junejo, and served as Minister of
Housing and Works from April 1985 to January 1986 and as Railways Minister from
January 1986 to December 1986.

After a short stint with the Muslim League, Gilani joined the Pakistan Peoples Party
(PPP) in 1988. In the Benazir Bhutto government of 1988-1990, he was Minister of
Tourism from March 1989 to January 1990 and Minister of Housing and Works from
January 1990 to August 1990. Later, under another Bhutto government, he became
Speaker of the National Assembly in October 1993, serving in that post until February
1997.

He has been elected various times as the Member of National Assembly from Multan. In
the 2008 general election, he beat Pakistan Muslim League (Q) (PML-Q) leader Sikandar
Hayat Bosan..

Gilani escaped an assassination attempt on September 3, 2008,when unidentified


gunmen fired shots at his motorcade near the garrison city of Rawalpindi, officials said.
The shooting occurred shortly after Gilani was returning from an official visit to the
eastern city of Lahore. His motorcade was going to Islamabad from the high-security
Chaklala military airbase in Rawalpindi. A spokesman for the Prime Minister's House said
Gilani and members of his staff had escaped unhurt and were safe.He said police had
been put on high alert and an investigation launched into the incident. The unidentified
assailants fired at Gilani's motorcade on a highway. At least two shots hit the Prime
Minister's bulletproof vehicle, TV channels quoted officials as saying. State-run PTV
beamed footage of the damage caused by the bullets to the window of the driver's door
of the vehicle. Reports said the incident occurred at a spot where former premier and
PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif's motorcade was fired at on December 27 last year, shortly
before Pakistan People's Party (PPP) chairperson Benazir Bhutto was assassinated in a
suicide bombing in Rawalpindi.

According to Gillani's press secretary, Zahid Bashir, a car carrying Gillani was hit by two
bullets in an attack near Islamabad on September 3, 2008; Bashir said that Gillani was
unharmed. The Pakistani Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.

Asif Ali Zardari (born 26 July 1955) is the 11th and current President of Pakistan and the
Co-Chairman of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP). Zardari is the widower of Benazir
Bhutto, who twice served as Prime Minister of Pakistan. When his wife was assassinated
in December 2007, he became the leader of the Pakistan People's Party. He is one of the
top five richest men in Pakistan with an estimated net worth of US$1.8 billion (2005).

Benazir Bhutto was assassinated on 27 December 2007, shortly after returning to


Pakistan from exile. On 30 December 2007, Asif Ali Zardari became the co-chairman of
the PPP, along with his son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, who is currently studying at Oxford.
Bilawal is intended to fully assume the post when he completes his education.

After the assassination of Benazir Bhutto, Zardari reaffirmed his lack of interest in the
prime ministership. Chairman Zardari and Mian Nawaz Sharif, leader of the PML-N,
along with some smaller political parties, joined forces in an electoral coalition that won
a heavy majority in the elections and unseated Musharraf's ruling Pakistan Muslim
League-Q (PML-Q). After the election, he called for a government of national unity, and
divided cabinet portfolios among coalition partners on proportionate basis. Asif Ali
Zardari and former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said on 21 February 2008 that
their parties would work together in the national parliament after scoring big wins in the
election. On 5 March 2008, Zardari was cleared of five corruption charges as part of a
court ruling which "abolished the cases against all public office holders",including
corruption and illegal use of property under NRO, the National Reconciliation
Ordinance. He had another trial on the remaining charges on 14 April 2008, when he
was cleared under the same NROOn 19 April 2008, Zardari announced in a press
conference in London that he and his sister, Faryal Talpur, would participate in the by-
elections taking place on 3 June and that, if necessary, he would contest to become the
country's next Prime Minister, even though his party voted by a 2/3 majorityto
announce that Yousaf Raza Gillani would be the PM for a five year term.

Question No: 40 ( Marks: 10 )


What are the main reasons behind Pakistan's low literacy rate?

Reasons behind Pakistan's low literacy rate:

Education is a right; not a privilege. Being a free citizen every individual has the right to live, speak, write etc.
It is the prime responsibility of a government to ensure that all citizens get the basic fundamental rights of
citizen at their doorstep.

History has witnesses that no nation has been able to accelerate in terms of development without
considering these aims as pre-requisites. Education is one of these basic rights that provide a tool for
development to nations. Pakistan is one of the developing countries that is thriving for improvement in this
area. Each and every government has launched a stream of five year plans that were arranged so as to fulfill
the Millennium Development goals.

However all resulted in vain since there was no or meager improvement in this regard. A lower literacy rate
is an outcome despite such acts. Since the inception, education is the most neglected area and the situation
did not improve despite of taken measure to educate people. Even there is a large population who did not
receive basic education. It was 15 years back, the government allotted 2.6 % of the G.D.P for the progression
of education however, to add injury to an insult, it was limited to 1.8% and the situation got worst.
There are other developing nations like Turkey which allot most of its G.D.P to Education department,
Pakistan ignored this department. With such non serious attitude towards Education, and there remain a
dearth of well -educated and skillful individuals. Among the SAARC Nations, Pakistan is at the sixth and at
the 159 th position among the 174 World countries. According to a Government Official Report, the literacy
rate in Pakistan is 34 % which is doubtful.

The lower literacy rate is said to be an outcome of greater population, poverty and unemployment; however
it cannot be justified since there are other countries like Vietnam, Cambodia, India, Kenya etc where the
advancement in literacy rate was observed despite of such factors. Take another example, Sri Lanka, a fellow
SAARC Nation enjoys the same per annum income as Pakistan however it has 90 % literacy rate. It is said
that about 2 Crore, 2 Lacks children are yet to get enrolled at Primary level. The present situation in
education imparting institution is more than worst.
Take an example government schools 54% of our population never went to school. About 46 % are enrolled
in Public schools. Most of these schools have large premises however lacked the facilities of electricity, water
and sanitation. Even some are ghost schools and don't even exist yet the funds are utilized by the authorized
personals. People unsatisfied with such situation of Public schools, can not admit their wards to Private
schools since the tuition fees are quite high as compared to public schools.

Education has been converted into a fruitful business and we can find a number of Private schools located in
the same area within short distances. These schools are opened in small bungalows which are rental and do
not suit to a standard school premise. Another drawback is that the Private schools are limited to urban
areas and these have no presence in rural areas. Another noticeable point is that a good number of
population is admitted to Madarsas ;which are institutions of Islamic religious teachings. These offer free
teaching so where there is inflation all around, people find it as a blessing in disguise.

The Government fund is not properly utilized due to the absence of basic and prerequisite strategy. This has
lead to downfall in education and slow progress in literacy rate in Pakistan In short, we are not utilizing our
resources to our potential. It is this inadequate utilization that is the root cause of downfall in literacy rate.

Explain the Evolution of Two-Nation Theory in the Subcon?

India for the safeguard of their political, cultural, and social rights, within or without a
United India.
The Two-Nation Theory is the ideology that the primary identity of Muslims in
the Indian subcontinent is their religion, rather than their language or ethnicity, and
therefore Indian Hindus and Muslims are two distinct nationalities, regardless of ethnic
or other commonalities.This Theory was a founding principle of the Pakistan
Movement (i.e. the Ideology of Pakistan), and the Partition of India in 1947.

Question No: 1 ( Marks: 20 )

Write a detailed note on the impacts of Khilaphat Movement on Indian politics.

ANS:
The Khilafat movement (1919-1924) was a pan-Islamic, political campaign launched
byMuslims in British India to influence the British government and to protect
the Ottoman Empire during the aftermath of World War I. The position of Caliph after
the Armistice of Mudros of October 1918 with the military occupation of
Istanbul and Treaty of Versailles(1919) fell into a disambiguation along with
the Ottoman Empire's existence. The movement gained force after the Treaty of
Sèvres (August 1920) which solidified the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire[1].
In India, although mainly a Muslim religious movement, the movement became a part of
the wider Indian independence movement. The movement was a topic in Conference of
London (February 1920). The Lucknow pact showed that it was possible for middle-
class, English-educated Muslims and Hindus to arrive at an amicable settlement on
Hindu-Muslim constitutional and political problems. This unity reached its climax during
the Khilafat and the Non-Cooperation Movements.After World War I, the Ottoman
Empire faced dismemberment. Under the leadership of the Ali Brothers, Maulana
Muhammad Ali and Maulana Shaukat Ali, the Muslims of South Asia launched the
historic Khilafat Movement to try and save it. Mohandas Karam Chand Gandhi linked the
issue of Swaraj with the Khilafat issue to associate Hindus with the movement. The
ensuing movement was the first countrywide popular movement.The Muslims of India
had a strong feeling of identity with the world community of Islam. They had seen the
decline in the political fortunes of Islam as the European powers conquered the Muslim
lands one after the other. The Anglo-Russian convention of 1908 had reduced their
next-door neighbor Iran to a mere dependency. Afghanistan also suffered as it was a
bone of contention between Russia and Britain, and was now under the latter's sphere
of influence.The general impression among the Muslims of India was that the western
powers were waging a war against Islam throughout the world in order to rob it of all its
power and influence. The Ottoman Empire was the only Muslim power that had
maintained a semblance of authority and the Muslims of India wanted to save the
Islamic political power from extinction.
As an institution, the Khilafat had a checkered past. It had originally migrated from
Medina to Damascus and from Damascus to Baghdad. For sometime it was located in
Egypt, then it fell to the lot of Turkey, very much as a prize. The Turkish Sultans had
claimed to be the caliphs of the Muslim world. As long as the Mughal Empire had been
in existence, the Muslims of India had not recognized their claim. At this critical
juncture, when the Muslims of the Sub-continent had no sovereign ruler of their own,
they began to see the necessity of recognizing the Sultan of Turkey as their caliph. Tipu
Sultan was the first Indian Muslim who, having been frustrated in his attempts to gain
recognition from the Mughals, had turned to the Sultan of Turkey to establish a legal
right to his throne.
The European powers had played a leading role in reducing the might of Turkey in
Europe to Eastern Thrace, Constantinople and the straits in the Balkan Wars (1912-13).
To seek revenge, the Turks decided to side with the Germans against the Allied Forces.
The Indian Muslims supported this decision.

Muhammad Ali argued that for Muslims to accept mandates over Iraq, Syria and
Palestine would amount to a total disregard of the wishes of the Holy Prophet (S. A. W.).
Thus the Muslims of India launched the Tehrik-i-Khilafat. The objectives were as follows:

1. To maintain the Turkish Caliphate.

2. To protect the holy places of the Muslims.

3. To maintain the unity of the Ottoman Empire.

Although the Khilafat Movement failed to achieve its declared objectives, it carried
political awakening to large masses of Muslims. It was during the Khilafat days that
representatives of Indian Muslims came into contact with eminent personages from
other Muslims countries to save the semblance of unity in the world of Islam.

The Khilafat Movement was an asset for the struggle of Pakistan. It made clear to the
Indian Muslims to trust neither the British nor the Hindus, but to look to their own
strengths for self-preservation.

(d) Importance of Cotton export 5

Pakistan. Pakistan is the 3rd largest exporter of raw cotton and a leading
exporter of yarn in the world. Cotton is not only an export-earning crop but also
provides raw material to local textile industry. A profound investment in the form
of over1000 ginning factories, over 400, textile mills heavily depends upon

owner of northern *Punjab. From 1935 to 1936, he served as Deputy Governor, Reserve
Bank of India, and was a member of the Boards of eleven major commercial and
industrial companies. Between 1935 and 1942, he served as President of the Punjab
National Unionist Party. After signing the Liaquat-Sikandar pact in 1937, under which
Muslim members of the Unionist Party could also enjoy membership of the *Muslim
League, he was also simultaneously a member of the *All-India Muslim League. From
1937 to 1940, he served as Chief Minister of Punjab. Elevated as Governor Punjab, he
died in office in 1942.
(e) Separate Electorates
The ideology of Pakistan took shape through an evolutionary process. Historical
experience provided the base; Allama Iqbal gave it a philosophical explanation; Quaid-I
Azam translated it into a political reality; and the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, by
passing Objectives Resolution in March 1949, gave it legal sanction. It was due to the
realization of the Muslims of South Asia that they are different from the Hindus that
they demanded separate electorates. However when they realized that their future in a
‘Democratic India’ dominated by Hindu majority was not safe, they changed their
demand to a separate state.

What were the problems faced by the newly state of Pakistan in 1947?

ANS: The attainment of independence brought an end to one phase of the


struggle and marked the beginning of a new one for setting up and running a
viable, stable and prosperous state. Pakistan began its independent life under
very difficult and unfavorable circumstances. Pakistan faced serious problems in
the initial stages.
1. New Administration
2. Division of Assets
3. Integration of Princely States
4. Communal Riots and Arrival of Refugees
5. Canal water and trade issues
1: New Administration
The shortage of trained human power especially senior officers was a serious
problem in the
setting up of federal government in Karachi. Most of them had migrated to India.
There was a
shortage of office space, equipment and furniture. This disturbed the direct
connections between
the federal government and provincial governments. On the other hand, the
provincial
governments were overburdened that needed very accurate connection between
the centre and
the provinces to solve the problems of the Muslim refugees who had nothing to
eat, drink, wear,
rest, etc. To counter the critical situation, the official system should have been
efficient but due to
the lack of all these facilities the administrative authorities were painfully facing
difficulties.
2: Division of Assets http://www.vustudents.net
The Indian government was not cooperative for transfer of record and equipment
to Pakistan.
The civil administration was not handing over the promised financial, military, and
other shares
that created mountainous hurdles to eradicate the pains and miseries of the
refugees.
Financial Assets
The full financial share of Pakistan was not transferred. Initially rupees 200
million were
transferred that were not sufficient to meet the expenditures of the newly born
state. The
Indian government was so reactionary that it tried its level best to block these
funds to
suffocate the newly born Muslim state as they expected foolishly that Pakistan
would
collapse and rejoin India soon after its existence. They did not release the
remaining
funds until Gandhi’s threat of marn bert (fast until death). Under this pressure,
more funds
were sent in early 1948 but no installment was later paid.
Military’s Division
As far as the problem in dividing man power there was no serious setback
because the
division was not in the hand of third person and Muslims were free to come to
their
dreamland, Pakistan. Anyhow, their shifting was slow and insecure. There were
obstacles in the Pakistan’s share of weapons, equipment, and stores. The
broken and
damaged stuff was sent by India. Pakistan did not get any ordinance factory.
Reorganization of the Armed Forces was another tough job and the there was no
army
officer up to the rank of colonel. The shortage of experienced officers convinced
British
officers to continue their services. This also accelerated undue promotion in the
military
services to fill the gap.
3: Integration of Princely States
There were over 560 princely states in India on the verge of the partition of India.
About 500
states had joined India before August 15 because of the motivation by V. P.
Menon and
Mountbatten. The princes were inclined to honour every gesture of the British
representative so
they conceded what the member of the Royal family (Mountbatten) wished. The
Hindu-British
conspiracy blocked states to join Pakistan.
Junagadh
It was a small state with access to sea having about 7 lakh population and 3377
mile
area. The ruler was Muslim while the majority of its population was Hindu. The
ruler
decided to accede to Pakistan and Pakistan also accepted the accession. In
November
1947, the Indian troops entered the state and took its control. The referendum
favoured
India.
Hyderabad
It was geographically big and financially a rich state. Its ruler was Muslim and
majority
population was Hindu. It was surrounded by India from all sides. The Nizam
wanted to
stay independent. Mountbatten discouraged him and signed Standstill
Agreement. But
India built pressure on the Nizam by sending its troops in September 1948
claiming that
serious law and order situation had developed. The state was integrated in India.
Kashmir
The most important state was Kashmir naturally connected with Pakistan. Its
ruler was
Hindu while population was Muslim. The population inclined towards Pakistan but
the
Hindu ruler declared to join India. The Kashmiri people revolt against the ruler in
Poonch
area and soon it became widespread. The ruler sought Indian support. India
demanded
accession. On October 27, 1947 Indian troops landed in Srinagar. The people
continued
their struggle for independence and India promised to finally settle the matter
with
reference to the people under the UN Resolutions.
4: Communal Riots and Refugees
The Communal riots occurred earlier in August 1946. The killing of Muslims in
Indian areas forced
them to leave India. The Sikhs and Hindus attacked the refugee caravans and
trains. There were
organized gangs to kill the Muslims. The refugee problem created critical
condition in the border
areas. The massive migration proved serious economic and humanitarian
problems for the new
state. The military was asked to help cope with the refugee problem.
5: Canal Water Problem
The major rivers flow from Kashmir and some canal heads located in India. In
1948, India cut off
water to some canal that was a serious threat to agriculture in West Pakistan.
The Indian plans to
build water storage on the rivers that are vital for Pakistan’s economy worsened
the situation. It
also showed the traditional anti-Muslim attitude. The World Bank settled the
problem in
September 1960 (Indus Water Treaty).
6: Trade Problem and the Economy
India devalued its currency in 1949 but Pakistan refused to do so. It stopped
trade that adversely
affected Pakistan’s economy as it depended on trade from India. Pakistan had
inherited a weak
economy and poor industrial base. The beginning years of Pakistan were
troubled and difficult
due to the India’s non-helpful policy and the war in Kashmir. It had profound
impact on Pakistan’s
worldview and its relations with India. Pakistan strived for its survival and
security. Many Indians
and the British predicted the collapse of Pakistan. They were of the opinion that
very soon the
Muslims would realize their blunder. They would be forced by the circumstances
to go back to
join India. But PAKISTAN, by the grace of Almighty Allah, was able to meet the
challenge even
with its problems.

Question No.2
Marks : 20

Short Questions (Answer should not exceed more than five lines each).

(a) Scientific Society


The establishment of the Scientific Society is landmark in the educational movement of
Syed Ahmad. It was established in Ghazipur and then moved with Syed Ahmad to
Aligarh. First publication took place in Aligarh, Jan 9, 1864. Its main objective was to
translate the classical works of English (Literature, Science, Engineering and Agriculture)
into Urdu. Its stated injective was to “bring the knowledge and literature of the Western
world within reach of the immense masses of the people of the east. In 1866, the
Society became “Aligarh Institute Gazette” and continued to be published until Syed’
death.

(b) The Allahabad Address of Allama Muhammad Iqbal


. Iqbal presented a review of the political and social situation of India and solution of the
ills
befalling India. He evaluated the importance of role of Islam in the lives of Muslims of
British India. He said that the European view of duality of religion and state does not
apply here in the Indian society. Rejecting the secularism he said, religion is not a totally
personal affair.He explained that Islam offers an ethical order, socio-political structure,
legal framework, code of life, culture and civilization. It is a living, dynamic force that has
a profound impact on the lives of Indian Muslims. With the force of Islam the scattered
and disoriented people have been turned into an organized force.
The Muslims are not willing to submerge their religious individuality. They have lack of
trust, fear of domination from Hindus. If the British want any sort of internal harmony it
would be impossible unless the communal question is settled. It’s historical reality that
India is a continent inhabited by diverse people. No political arrangement may be
acceptable without recognizing this reality.
• If the Muslims have an opportunity to develop in accordance with their Islamic
civilization and tradition, they would be willing to sacrifice their lives for India.
• Federalism cannot succeed without recognizing the national identity of the
Muslims.
• Territorial redistribution of British India on the basis of religion has become a
need of time.
• Punjab, NWFP, Sind and Balochistan be amalgamated into a state, self
government within the British empire or without it. The formation of such a
consolidated
North Western Muslim state appears to be the final destiny of the Muslims, at least of
North West India. To India, it will offer peace and security due to internal balance of
power.
• Islam is a people building force in India that has given moral consciousness and
political identity to the people.

(c) The Lahore Resolution http://www.vustudents.net


The Muslim League held its annual session at Lahore on 22-24 March 1940. The Lahore
Resolution was moved by Maulvi Fazlul Haq and seconded by Ch. Khaliquzzaman that
finally
approved on March 24, 1940. Jinnah rightly expressed his valuable remarks about the
political
circumstances of India and the Muslims stand. He said:
“Indian problem is not communal but international. No Constitution can work
without recognizing this reality. Muslims of India will not accept a constitution
that establishes a government of the Hindu majority on them. If Hindus and
Muslims are placed under one democratic system, this would mean Hindu
Raj.”

(d) Achhut community

(e) i

: Describe the causes of the division of Bengal and its impact on the Muslim politics in

the subcontinent
ANS: United Bengal’s area covered 189,000 sq. miles with 80 million populations. Dr
Abdul Hameedwrites in his book, Muslim Separatism in India, that the partition was
imperative even if Curzon had not initiated it. A Lt. Governor had problems in looking
after the eastern areas. Mainly Muslim suffered because of the rotten administration by
the British. Before 1905, many proposals of partition of Bengal had been under
consideration but Lord Curzon decided to practicalise this
administrative scheme. East Bengal became incidentally a Muslim majority province
having 13000000 out of 31000000. West Bengal was a Hindu majority province. Muslims
were very happy on the partition as this had enabled them to promote their life
conditions. It was rightly an opportunity for compensation. The Muslim community
supported it strongly but Hindus retaliated furiously saying it the division of motherland.
The Congress joined the anti-partition movement.They started widespread agitation,
violence and boycott of foreign goods. The main reason of
Hindu protest was that they had loosened grip over the eastern parts.

the elite of the city. He imbibed the influence of contemporary liberalism. He wrote a
number of books on Islam and Islamic history. His most notable contributions are "The
Spirit of Islam", "A Short History of the Saracens" and "Muhammadan Law". His book

Explain the Cabinet Mission Plan and reaction of the political parties.
ANS: The British Cabinet Mission of 1946 to India aimed to discuss and plan for the
transfer of power from the British Raj to Indian leadership, providing India with
independence under Dominion status in the Commonwealth of Nations. Formulated at the
initiative of Clement Attlee, thePrime Minister of the United Kingdom, the mission
consisted of Lord Pethick-Lawrence, the Secretary of State for India, Sir Stafford Cripps,
President of the Board of Trade, and A. V. Alexander, the First Lord of the
Admiralty. Lord Wavell, the Viceroy of India, did not participate. The Mission's purpose
was:

1. Hold preparatory discussions with elected representatives of British India and


the Indian states in order to secure agreement as to the method of framing the
constitution.

2. Set up a constitution body.

3. Set up an Executive Council with the support of the main Indian parties.

The approval of the plans would determine the composition of the new government.
The Congress Working Committee had initially approved the plan. However, on 10
July, Jawaharlal Nehru, who later became the first prime minister of India, held a press
conference in Bombaydeclaring that the Congress had agreed only to participate in
the Constituent Assembly and "regards itself free to change or modify the Cabinet
Mission Plan as it thought best."[2] The Congress ruled out the June 16 plan, seeing it as
the division of India into small states[citation needed]. Moreover,the Congress was a Centralist
party. Intellectuals like Kanji Dawarkadas criticized the Cabinet Plan. Congress was
against decentralization and it had been under pressure from Indian capitalists who
wanted a strong Center. The plan's strongest opponent was the principal Indian
leader Mohandas Gandhi, due to the reason that the territories had been grouped
together on the basis of religion[citation needed].

The Muslim League gave its approval to the plan. There was an impression that the
Congress also had accepted the scheme and the Plan would be the basis of the future
constitution of India[citation needed]. Jinnah, in his speech to the League Council, clearly stated
that he recommended acceptance only because nothing better could be obtained[citation
needed]
. However, on declaration from the Congress President that the Congress could
change the scheme through its majority in the Constituent Assembly, this meant that
the minorities would be placed at the mercy of the majority. The Muslim League Council
met at Bombay on 27 July. "Mr. Jinnah in his opening speech reiterated the demand for
Pakistan as the only course left open to the Muslim League. After three days' discussion,
the Council passed a resolution rejecting the Cabinet Mission Plan.

Question No: 31 ( Marks: 5 )


Outline the criticism raised against the First Report of Basic Principle
Committee.

This report was severely criticized throughout the country. It could not satisfy both the
wings, East and West. The religious group objected that the report contained nothing
about Islamisation. On the question of representation, the East Pakistan (EP) protested
that their majority had been denied by the Report. They remarked that they were
thrown into a permanent minority. The population of EP was slightly larger than that of
the West Pakistan (WP) but it was treated as the small provinces because both the
Houses were given equal powers. So the domination of WP was intolerable for the East
wing. The language issue proved subversive to the national solidarity.

. First all Congress governments in the provinces launched anti-Muslim drive basically to
exclude the ML and other Muslim organizations from the government making process.
The Congress leaders had come to know that the ML had got roots in the masses. They
started ‘Muslim Mass Contact’ movement to defame the ML in their favour. They were
making cultural and educational policies that promoted the Hindu culture and symbols
in the name of Indian culture. They introduced Banda-Mataram anthem from
Annandmath in the institutions and offices etc. The Hindi language was given top most
importance in their policies. Wardha Educational Scheme was to convert Muslims into

in the 1970s to
early 1990s. Now declined due to a number of measures by the government but
still it is higher as
compare to the other countries of the region. Census is taken after every ten
years.

More than 50 Percent population is under the age of 21. A large part of this
population is dependent.

planning etc.
Provincial population.
Punjab 56-57 percent
Sind 23 percent
NWFP 14 percent
Baluchistan 5.3 percent
Low literacy rate: Official literacy rate is 46 percent but functional literacy rate is
even
lower.
Women literacy rate is much lower. In certain areas of Baluchistan women

nominal to non-existent.
Why population figures are important. For Planning and development, Socio-
economic
development and poverty alleviation etc.
Social development indicators are poor in Pakistan. No ideal figure for

interests, cordiality, peace and non-interference in internal affairs. Pakistan
believes that
problems to be resolved peacefully.
Relations with Major Powers:
The nature of relations with major powers has varied.
United States
Pakistan-US relations have been generally friendly but problems developed from
time to time on
nuclear issue, arms sales, Kashmir etc.
China
China proved to be a reliable and consistent friend over the periods of decades.

have developed
close relations in all the areas including economic development and
industrialization, defense,
science and technology, environment and trade.
Russia
Pakistan has working relations with Russia but frequent problems remained
unsolved during the
period of Cold War. Russia remained favorable to India at the cost of its relations
with Pakistan.
On Kashmir issue, her attitude has been pro India.
Some economic relations strengthened the bilateral relations when Russia
provided economic
and technological assistance to Pakistan in establishing steel mill in Karachi. In
post-Cold War
era, Pakistan is trying to normalize the relations. The recent tour of President
Musharraf is a step
towards this goal.
Economic Issues, Trade, Investment:
Greater importance is attributed to the issues like economic development, direct
foreign
investment and trade relations in international relations. Foreign policy is linked
with foreign
assistance from the World Bank, IMF, Asian Development Bank, International
Development Bank
and other sources. Economic relations are both bilateral and multi-lateral.
Technology, trade,
access to market and investment are keys to the cordial relations between the
two countries.
Pakistan is also trying to establish its relations with other countries on the same
footings.
Muslim States:
Being Islamic country, Pakistan has been always in search of good relations with
the Muslim
countries. It has been a central point in the ideology of Pakistan even before
Independence.
Solidarity with the Developing States:

Pakistan had been concerned with the issues and problems of the states of
Asia, Africa and
Latin America. As it is developing countries it is well aware of the problems of
underdevelopment,
poverty, disease, famine, civil strife and border disputes, refugees and drug
addiction.
Pakistan always emphasized on the UN and developed countries to help them.

Comment on the importance of Education and why Pakistan’s position is low down in
Literacy?
Importance of Education:
Education is a key to development for individual, society and state. It shapes
natural qualities and
talents of the individuals. It has positive relevance to family and society. It also
confers citizens’
confidence to deal with environment, a sense of purpose. Education provides a
goal orientation
and is helpful to others by educating them.
Education provides entitlement to job and professions. It gives effective tanning
to the citizens
about their rights and duties. It plays a more constructive role in character
building of the person
and in turn society as a whole.
Education should be integrated to nation building and should be able to transmit
the primary
values. Education should be responsible for the formation of attitude.
It should transmit socialization among individuals.
Education system is designed according to the ideology of the state and its
identity. Education is
the indicator of socio-economic development. For the real progress proper
educational facilities
should be provided. Literacy rate should be enhanced. Trained and qualified
human power can
make a nation success. Only such educated people can better be equipped to
deal with changing
situations and challenges of the time. Education provides better understanding of
international
environment that affects all of us. Islam asks Muslims to get education. Other
religions also value
education.
Resource allocation for education is far from satisfactory. It is much less than
what a large
number of countries spend on education, especially those having developed after
World War II.
Most of these allocations go to salaries and administration.
Fewer amounts are given for infrastructure, facilities of research and
development.

Low Literacy:
In Pakistan literacy rate is 46 per cent. While meaningful literacy is far less.
Female literacy is
lower. In rural areas literacy is much low.

Question No: 37 ( Marks: 5 )


What are the main problems that Pakistan Agriculture Sector is facing?
There are number of problems in our agriculture, for instance:
1. Outdated modes of cultivation, which cause low per acre yield.
2. Water Logging and Salinity.
Attention is being given to these since mid 1960.
3. Crop diseases are big problem. Technical support is being provided by
Department of Agricultural. It helped to overcome the problem. Our inputs have
problem
of quality, which cause low prices in market. Other handicaps are low quality
seeds,
costly fertilizers, non-availability of electricity or oil for tube well etc.
4. Water related problem, sometimes it is too little, but sometimes it is too much.
Cleaning of Canals is also necessary to provide water at the end of canal.
5. Credit facilities are also problematic.
6. Access to market is difficult.
7. Availability of reasonable price should be ensured for the welfare of the
farmers
and high yield of crop.

Question No: 38 http://www.vustudents.net ( Marks: 5 )


Describe the Background of the Constitution of 1962?
Background
Military took over on 7 October 1958 and consequently Ayub Khan became Chief
Martial Law
Administrator. One major task was to frame a new Constitution. The
administration was critical of
Parliamentary system because it caused instability in the past. They sought
stability of the nation
in the gradual development of democracy.

Question No: 39 ( Marks: 10 )


What were the main constitutional issues which Pakistan had to face at the
beginning?
Major Issues
The major issues, the first constituent assembly faced, were about:
1. Federalism
2. Representation
3. Separate or Joint Electorate
4. The National Language Issue
5. Parliamentary or Presidential system
6. The Islamic or Secular State
1: Federalism
There was consensus on federalism but yet there were many issues to be
settled. The main was
that Pakistan consisted of two territorial parts, East Pakistan (with more
population, less territory
but administratively one unit) and West Pakistan (administratively 4 units).
Federalism is meant to
accommodate such kind of diversity maintaining the unity of the state or country.
Division of power:
It was the most difficult question that how the power would be divided between
Centre
and the Provinces. The heritage of British rule gave the tradition of a Strong
Centre. But the
provinces were demanding more Autonomy and Provincial Rights.
In the Interim Constitution and the 1956 Constitution tradition of strong centre
continued.
2: Representation
Representation at the federal level was another conflicting issue because East
Pakistan and
West Pakistan were different in population and size. On the other hand there was
diversity in
Western part of Pakistan. The provinces of West Pakistan were also different in
population and
size. All of them were sensitive to their representation and provincial autonomy.
To have a Standard Formula for the representation of units and population the
Constituent
Assembly (CA) formed a Basic Principle Committee (BPC) on March 12, 1949.
The primary task
of this committee was to frame a set of basic principles for the future constitution
of Pakistan.

3: Separate or Joint Electorate


Separate electorate was adopted on the demand of Muslims in 1909 by the
British Government.
But the minorities did not favour this after independence. Religious elements
supported this as a
part of heritage.
East: decided for Joint Electorate.
West: Separate electorate.
1957: Joint Electorate was adopted for all Pakistan by the National Assembly.
4: The National Language Issue
Pre-independence: Muslim elite all over India adopted Urdu. In 1948 Jinnah
declared that Urdu
would be the national language but provinces could use their languages.
Opposition against Urdu was there in East Bengal. This became more
pronounced after the death
of Jinnah as controversies erupted on constitution making. Language Movement
started in East
Pakistan February, 1952.
There was a complaint about anti Bengali language attitude of the federal
government.
Two-language formula was adopted in 1954. Since 1973 Urdu was adopted as
national language
along with the support for development of regional languages.
5: Parliamentary or Presidential
There was a consensus for parliamentary system. But there was a limited
demand for presidential
system. Supporters of Presidential system became dominant after the 1958
military takeover.
The 1962 Constitution was a Presidential constitution.
7: The Islamic or Secular State
From the very beginning of Pakistan Movement there was an agreement that the
state will have
close relationship with Islam. Muslims defined their national identity with
reference to Islam and
its heritage. Some opposition came from the Congress members of the
Constituent Assembly,
and a few secularists.
There was a BROAD AGREEMENT that the state will identify itself with Islam.
The Constituent
Assembly took time to define the precise relationship between the state and
Islam.

Question No: 40 ( Marks: 10 )


Write down a Comprehensive note on Pakistan’s Natural Resources.

1: Natural Resources
Mineral Resources
Rivers and Canals
Forests
Animals
2: Agriculture
1: Natural Resources:
The resources endowed by the nature to the country and the people are called
National
Resources, e.g., Mineral resources, rivers, forests and animals. Agricultural lands
hold key to
development and prosperity of a country.
The rate of development and prosperity of a country depends on efforts to make
use of it.
Effective management and human efforts are needed to avail them. Modern
technology is also
required to make use of it.
Mineral Resources:
Pakistan is blessed with considerable mineral resources. Some of them are
explored but much
remains to be done for the search for more. Some important resources are:
Iron Ore is used for industry, especially steel industry. It is found in limited
quantity and low quality. Most of the required Iron ore is imported from abroad.
Its
deposits are found in Chitral, Chaghai, Kohat, Kurram Agency, Mardan, Hazara,
Mianwali (Kalabagh) and DG Khan.
Chromite: is used in preparing other metals, leather tanning, making of steel
products, armament and stainless steel. The deposits of Chromite are found in
Zoab
(Muslim Bagh), Chaghai, Malakand, Mahmand, Waziristan, Fort Sandaman etc.
Gypsum is used for plaster of Paris, Paints and Cement. It is found in Jhelum,
Mianwali, DG Khan, Kohat and Loralai.
Sulphur is used by chemical industry. Its deposits are found in Kalat, Khairpur,
Mardan, and Jacobabad etc.
Coal is used in power generation. It is basically used as fuel. It is not found in
good quantity and quality. It is mostly found in Sindh (Thatta, Tharparkar,
Manara)
Balochistan (Deegari, Sharig, Soer, Khost, Maach, Hernai), Punjab (Makarwal,
Dandot),
NWFP (Cherat and Noshera).
Oil: It is a major source of energy. It is mostly imported from Iran and Gulf
states. Now some valuable reserves are found in Jhelum, Mianwali, Attock,
Balkasar,
Mial, Chakwal, and Dhodak.
Gas: it is itself a source of energy and fuel, and also used as a source of power
generation. It is found in Sui, Mari, Uch, Khairpur, Jacobabad etc. Now some
new
discoveries are also found.
Uranium: It is the basic element for atomic power, indispensable for the
defence.
Its deposits are in DG Khan, Hazara and Kohat.
Rivers:
The river system of Pakistan is consisted of Indus and other associated rivers.
We have a welldefined
Canal system. The most important one is the Indus Basin project.
What we require is the proper management of water, its conservation, effective
use, storage,
dams and flood control. Water is dangerous if it is too much, it become a problem
if it is too little.
It is used for Agriculture where it is the backbone of agro-economy. It is also a
cheapest source of
hydroelectric Power generation.
Forests:
Normally 25 percent area of a country should be covered with forest. But in
Pakistan it is only 4 to
5 percent.
Some areas are not suitable for plantation like deserts and dry mountains. It is
because of
shortage of water and rainfall. Deforestation is also due to unplanned cutting of
trees.
Advantages:
Forests have many advantages. They are helpful in improvement of weather.
Protect against
windstorms, help in slow melting of snow to stop floods. They add greenery,
beauty and fresh air
to the environment. Plants are source of food, medicine, timber, chemicals and
fertilizers. They
are the homes of animals, birds and insects. They are also used as fuel.
Animals:
Animals provide milk, meat, hide and skins, wool etc. They are also used for
agriculture and
transportation. They are a source of foreign exchange.
Their proper breeding requires planning and care. Animal husbandry and
colleges of research are
established to breed and cure useful species of animals. Department of Live
Stock also provides
Support System for raising animals both privately and through Government
Projects. Government
farms and military farms are also working for that purpose.
Fisheries:
It is also a source of food and income. Department of fisheries also encourage
private farmers to
invest in this field and add to personal and national wealth.

refused to negotiate
the elected majority party in 1971, now opposition refused to compromise and

Question No: 39 ( Marks: 10 )


Do you think that the policy measures adopted by Ayub Khan became the
reasons of his downfall?
Indo-Pakistan war started and at the end of war Tashkand Pact was signed with
India. People
were not satisfied with this pact. They also resented the election results of 1965.
Fruits of
economic development were not distributed at masses level. Wealth of nation
