Mirpur 5

Mirpur district comprises partly plain and partly hilly areas. Its hot climate and other geographical conditions closely resemble those of Jhelum and Gujrat, the adjoining districts of Pakistan. The people of this area are basically farmers. Since the 1960s, a large number of people from this district have gone abroad , especially to the United Kingdom and the Middle East, for economic reasons. As such they are today the major foreign exchange earning source for Azad Kashmir and Pakistan. Around 50,000 people were moved from this district in the mid-sixties to make way for the construction of Mangla Dam. Most of these people settled in new Mirpur whilst some moved to Pakistan and the UK. Find it on Google Earth (you must have Google Earth installed)

Wounderful work done by, Great Hanif, not 'Gharib' Hanif Major Omer Hayat Khan Tain, Rawalakot AK

Major Omer Hayat Khan		05-Oct-2008 00:45
Dear Hanif, You really deserve lot of applause and hearty appreciations on doing the marvellous job of portraying the most beautiful landscape of Kashmir, the Paradise on earth, my motherland, very artfully with great devotion and dedication. You are true representative and son of the soil. It is said that the thing of beauty is joy for ever, but as a matter of fact it is because of the very beauty of this piece of land that has put it under the shackles for such a long time. The God is so generous to have profusely showered His beauty and elegance on this part of the earth. The greed of the vested interests are trampling the beauty and grace of this land in the advanced age of liberal democratization and civilization of 21st Century. It is a very big challenge and question to the conscience of Word Community. Hopefully the wisdom and good sense will prevail and peace and prosperity shall return to this land of bewitching charm. Thanks, Major Omer Hayat Khan Tain, Rawalakot AK E-mail:- majoromer28@yahoo.com

Hi Resident of Mirpur, It is a wondeful place to live and visit. I lived and studied in 1980s. I am in California settled. I thnk about Mirpur sometime. Just say Hello to everyone. Stayed in F1 and then in Iqbal Hostel. I still have good feeling about Mirpur. Mirpur is like Hollywood and san Francisco except pacific Ocean. Great people and great friends. I just Love everyone over there. God Bless the People of Mirpur and Mirpur. Allah Hafiz

I am interested in the part of the countryside that went underwater. No further dams are authorized. Planning has begun for the removal of existing dams . You have the duty to "follow the money" to ascertain the names of individuals and entities who are profiting from any river seizure. The common man is only driven from his home by a river dam (see 2:246). The common man never profits from the seizure in this manner of an historically free-flowing river. Dr. Hamid
