Avgarch and Sost name take from Wakhan Afghanistan

By Farhat Ullah Baig

Avgarch and Sost name take from Wakhan Afghanistan:

The first settler in Avgarch (ab water and garch inaugurate) valley is the well-known Baba Sufi who came from Afghanistan traveling along the Amu Daria (or Oxus) River. He was first having settled in Sost, but soon moved to the more isolated and protected (from Kyrgyz) Boiber Valley where he made Avgarch his permanent home. The name Avgarch, sargez, Goz Khun and sost (sast, a common stone) take from wakhan Afghanistan.

Source www.wakhan.org

For more than 2500 years the Wakhan Corridor has been the homeland of Wakhi people, who refer to themselves as Wakhi or Khik. Today about 10,000 Wakhi live in Afghanistan’s Wakhan District, with another 40,000 living in adjacent areas of Tajikistan, Pakistan and China. Wakhi live in year-round villages extending from Qazideh (2800m) at the western end of Lower Wakhan to Sarhad-e Broghil (3300m) at the eastern end of Upper akhan. Wakhi people are farmers, who cultivate wheat, barley, peas, potatoes and a few apricot trees at the upper limits of agriculture, where production is rarely sufficient. Chinir, a festival celebrating the start of the barley harvest, occurs around the first week of August. Wakhi depend on livestock to supplement their agriculture, and almost all households have some animals. Wealthier families have many sheep, goats and yaks along with a few camels, horses and donkeys. Every summer, Wakhi people take their

Livestock to summer pastures as high as 4500m, where the animals grow fat on abundant grass. Wakhi people speak Wakhi, which they call Khikwor. It belongs to the Pamir group of Iranian languages and is spoken throughout Wakhan. Most men also speak Persian, which is used as a link language to communicate with people from other parts of Afghanistan. Wakhi people are Isma’ili Muslims, whose spiritual leader is the Aga Khan.

Women’s Vocational Centers of Central Asian Institution at Sost GOjal:

By Farhat Ullah Baig

Empowering women in remote villages is an important aspect of CAI’s work. Over the years, CAI has provided funds to establish numerous women’s vocational centers that provide skills training, equipment, and materials. Women can be independently earning income from the sale of handicrafts and clothing to help support their families, which stimulates the local economy and empowers women in a society where their opportunities are limited. CAI has also found that, in addition to building basic skills and literacy, the centers become important places for women to come together in their communities, share concerns, and solve problems.

CAI has provided vocational center at Sost town for local women became earning income from the sale of handicrafts and other stuff in local market.

Full text of Malala Yousafzai's Speech at United Nations:

Honourable UN Secretary General Mr Ban Ki-moon, respected president of the General Assembly Vuk Jeremic, honourable UN envoy for global education Mr Gordon Brown, respected elders and my dear brothers and sisters: Assalamu alaikum.

Today is it an honour for me to be speaking again after a long time. Being here with such honourable people is a great moment in my life and it is an honour for me that today I am wearing a shawl of the late Benazir Bhutto. I don’t know where to begin my speech. I don’t know what people would be expecting me to say, but first of all thank you to God for whom we all are equal and thank you to every person who has prayed for my fast recovery and new life. I cannot believe how much love people have shown me. I have received thousands of good-wish cards and gifts from all over the world. Thank you to all of them. Thank you to the children whose innocent words encouraged me. Thank you to my elders whose prayers strengthened me. I would like to thank my nurses, doctors and the staff of the hospitals in Pakistan and the UK and the UAE government who have helped me to get better and recover my strength.

I fully support UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in his Global Education First Initiative and the work of UN Special Envoy for Global Education Gordon Brown and the respectful president of the UN General Assembly Vuk Jeremic. I thank them for the leadership they continue to give. They continue to inspire all of us to action. Dear brothers and sisters, do remember one thing: Malala Day is not my day. Today is the day of every woman, every boy and every girl who have raised their voice for their rights.

There are hundreds of human rights activists and social workers who are not only speaking for their rights, but who are struggling to achieve their goal of peace, education and equality. Thousands of people have been killed by the terrorists and millions have been injured. I am just one of them. So here I stand, one girl among many. I speak not for myself, but so those without a voice can be heard. Those who have fought for their rights. Their right to live in peace. Their right to be treated with dignity. Their right to equality of opportunity. Their right to be educated.

Dear friends, on 9 October 2012, the Taliban shot me on the left side of my forehead. They shot my friends, too. They thought that the bullets would silence us, but they failed. And out of that silence came thousands of voices. The terrorists thought they would change my aims and stop my ambitions. But nothing changed in my life except this: weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage was born. I am the same Malala. My ambitions are the same. My hopes are the same. And my dreams are the same. Dear sisters and brothers, I am not against anyone. Neither am I here to speak in terms of personal revenge against the Taliban or any other terrorist group. I am here to speak for the right of education for every child. I want education for the sons and daughters of the Taliban and all the terrorists and extremists. I do not even hate the Talib who shot me.

Even if there was a gun in my hand and he was standing in front of me, I would not shoot him. This is the compassion I have learned from Mohamed, the prophet of mercy, Jesus Christ and Lord Buddha. This the legacy of change I have inherited from Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela and Mohammed Ali Jinnah.

This is the philosophy of nonviolence that I have learned from Gandhi, Bacha Khan and Mother Teresa. And this is the forgiveness that I have learned from my father and from my mother. This is what my soul is telling me: be peaceful and love everyone.

Dear sisters and brothers, we realise the importance of light when we see darkness. We realise the importance of our voice when we are silenced. In the same way, when we were in Swat, the north of Pakistan, we realised the importance of pens and books when we saw the guns. The wise saying, “The pen is mightier than the sword.” It is true. The extremists are afraid of books and pens. The power of education frightens them. They are afraid of women. The power of the voice of women frightens them. This is why they killed 14 innocent students in the recent attack in Quetta. And that is why they kill female teachers. That is why they are blasting schools every day because they were and they are afraid of change and equality that we will bring to our society. And I remember that there was a boy in our school who was asked by a journalist: “Why are the Taliban against education?”He answered very simply by pointing to his book, he said: “A Talib doesn’t know what is written inside this book.”

They think that God is a tiny, little conservative being who would point guns at people’s heads just for going to school. These terrorists are misusing the name of Islam for their own personal benefit. Pakistan is a peace-loving, democratic country. Pashtuns want education for their daughters and sons. Islam is a religion of peace, humanity and brotherhood. It is the duty and responsibility to get education for each child, that is what it says. Peace is a necessity for education. In many parts of the world, especially Pakistan and Afghanistan, terrorism, war and conflicts stop children from going to schools. We are really tired of these wars. Women and children are suffering in many ways in many parts of the world.

In India, innocent and poor children are victims of child labour. Many schools have been destroyed in Nigeria. People in Afghanistan have been affected by extremism. Young girls have to do domestic child labour and are forced to get married at an early age. Poverty, ignorance, injustice, racism and the deprivation of basic rights are the main problems, faced by both men and women.

Today, I am focusing on women’s rights and girls’ education because they are suffering the most. There was a time when women activists asked men to stand up for their rights. But this time we will do it by ourselves. I am not telling men to step away from speaking for women’s rights, but I am focusing on women to be independent and fight for themselves. So dear sisters and brothers, now it’s time to speak up. So today, we call upon the world leaders to change their strategic policies in favour of peace and prosperity. We call upon the world leaders that all of these deals must protect women and children’s rights. A deal that goes against the rights of women is unacceptable.

We call upon all governments to ensure free, compulsory education all over the world for every child. We call upon all the governments to fight against terrorism and violence. To protect children from brutality and harm. We call upon the developed nations to support the expansion of education opportunities for girls in the developing world. We call upon all communities to be tolerant, to reject prejudice based on caste, creed, sect, colour, religion or agenda to ensure freedom and equality for women so they can flourish. We cannot all succeed when half of us are held back. We call upon our sisters around the world to be brave, to embrace the strength within themselves and realise their full potential.

Dear brothers and sisters, we want schools and education for every child’s bright future. We will continue our journey to our destination of peace and education. No one can stop us. We will speak up for our rights and we will bring change to our voice. We believe in the power and the strength of our words. Our words can change the whole world because we are all together, united for the cause of education. And if we want to achieve our goal, then let us empower ourselves with the weapon of knowledge and let us shield ourselves with unity and togetherness.

Dear brothers and sisters, we must not forget that millions of people are suffering from poverty and injustice and ignorance. We must not forget that millions of children are out of their schools. We must not forget that our sisters and brothers are waiting for a bright, peaceful future.

So let us wage a glorious struggle against illiteracy, poverty and terrorism, let us pick up our books and our pens, they are the most powerful weapons. One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world. Education is the only solution. Education first. Thank you.

ACHIVEMENT OF PTI IN PAKHTUNKHWA

Voice of the Federation

PESHAWAR: Following completion of the civil and electro-mechanical works of the French-funded 22 Mega Watt (MW) Jabban Hydroelectric Power Station, first unit of the project was successfully put on test run today. The Power Station will start providing electricity to the National Grid very soon. French Ambassador Philippe Thiebaud and the Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) Chairman Syed Raghib Abbas Shah jointly unveiled the plaque to mark the event in a ceremony held at the project. French Development Agency (AFD) Vice President Gregory Clemente, Senator Nisar Muhammad Khan, Member National Assembly Junaid Akbar, notables of the area and other officials were also present on the occasion. 
Jabban Hydroelectric Power Station has been reconstructed on Sawat Canal System in Malakand of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province with a total cost of about Rs. 3.75 billion, out of which AFD has provided 25 million Euros – about 3.4 billion Rupees – as a soft loan. The power station will contribute 122 million units of cheap electricity to the National Grid.
Addressing the ceremony, the French Ambassador said that France, through AFD, is fully committed to help resolve the energy crisis in Pakistan. Referring to the Jabban Hydroelectric Power Station, he said that success of this first operation, as well as exceptional hydropower potential, encourages France and Pakistan to jointly engage in other projects in the future. The Ambassador appreciated WAPDA for executing Jabban Hydroelectric Power Project without cost over-run or delays. Earlier, WAPDA Chairman in his welcome address thanked France for providing financial assistance to reconstruct Jabban Hydroelectric Power Station. He expressed the hope that the cooperation among French institutions and WAPDA will be further enhanced in the days to come for development of the vital sectors of water and hydropower in Pakistan. Senator Nisar Muhammad Khan in his address also highlighted importance of the project for the area.
It may be mentioned that Jabban Hydel Power Station was established in 1937 with a generation capacity of 9.6 MW. It was the biggest hydropower station when Pakistan came into existence in 1947. In 1952, its generation capacity was elevated to 19.6 MW. During the early days of Pakistan when there were no mega hydel power stations like Warsak, Mangla and Tarbela, the Jabban Hydropower Station played a pivotal role in the development of newly-born country. 
After a significant contribution for socio-economic uplift for about seven decades, the power station was badly damaged in a fire incident in November 2006. Thereafter, WAPDA decided to undertake complete rehabilitation/reconstruction instead of its repair. Under the rehabilitation work, four units of 5.5 MW each have been installed to elevate its generation capacity to 22 MW.
