It was due to an agreement the tribals had with Quaid-e-Azam (from what i've heard)... free electricity!!

eating 'muft' electricity , then saying we want more development and on top of that hording arms , bombs , bullets to wage war against the state ?!

if ever there was such an agreement about eating 'muft' electricity it now stands null and void

Seems l'm wrong about the quaid-e-azam agreement thing.. sorry.

Btw, according to news sources, they only get it for a few hours daily.. 3/4 from what i've read in the reports..

Govt has been trying to work something up so that the tribals start coughing up money.. i guess they can start right after the operation
 
Chacha g, you need to understand that in those days, it was Pakistan who needed the tribals, not the other way around. MA Jinnah had lengthy verbal agreements with the tribal elders. FATA and it's status, in itself was a special case.

P.S. Electricity may not have been there, however, there were many other clauses...... I'll ask some elders about it.

Sorry again.. I was right after all:

"Since 1947 , tribals have been promised free electricity as part of Constitution and Quaide Azam as policy."

Was there also an agreement on smuggling ? Suicide Bombing ?

free to smuggle goods
no taxes
no bills for gas and electricity
no tariffs for moving goods across borders
suicide bomb factory

that is FATA in nutshell

Woah there. Its the Afghans who have invaded these areas who have taken advantage and misled the locals.

All Afghans in the country need to be kicked out because they have corrupted our Pashtun community.

Please do when you can. I doubt there was any clause like this.



p.s.
Remember there is no free lunch in this world.


If you want free electricity for millions of people, then Karachi and Lahore will be paying for it.

It is not FREE.

Someone pays for it.

You are a racist man!

Google about Jinnah and the agreement! e.g. one link: Muhammad Ali Jinnah -Address to the Tribal Jirga at Government House | United4justice's Weblog

and

Musharraf shattered Jinnah commitments for FATA | Pakistan

Anyways, Why single out only FATA? 8 lakh people of NWA were smugglers? suicide bombers??
I am sure there are more taliban /terrorists/killers in Karachi than in NWA (in numbers, not in % terms).. More bhatta khors, more smugglers.. MORE ELECTRICITY THIEVES.. so Why not bomb the whole of Karachi??

And they are NOT stealing gas/electricity. The Father of the NATION made a committment to them FOR THEIR SERVICES. And that too they were getting like 3/4 hours a day and you are mad!!

U are a fauji historian (??) you should know better :)
 
Kiddo, suicide bomber manufacturing units are in Punjab.....their creator / god was a Punjabi, bankrolled by petrodollars..... you must have taken some heavy drugs provided by Noon league...........

hahah you are calling pakistanis , napakis , daal khor and what not on pashtunforums and you call others 'racist' for just pointing out the obvious with respect to the wheeling dealings of FATA

Anyhow, there are many good people from KPK and FATA but they have to give up romanticizing with the violence and lawlessness originating from FATA , its not good for anyone. I will not say more on this

Thanks for sharing.


I seriously doubt that Jinnah promised free dole outs to Tribals.

Here it is for you to read.




Pakistan wants to help you and make you, as far as it lies in our power, self-reliant and self-sufficient and help in your educational, social and economic uplift, and not be left as you are dependent on annual doles, as has been the practice hitherto which meant that at the end of the year you were no better off than beggars asking for allowances, if possible a little more. We want to put you on your legs as self-respecting citizens who have the opportunities of fully developing and producing what is best in you and your land.




Jinnah was telling them not to be beggars (his words not mine).

And you ignore all that? Why?
