Rank of Pakistan in milk production?

ISLAMABAD, January 29, 2010 (Balochistan Times): The National Assembly was informed on Friday that Pakistan stands at fourth in the ranking of the largest milk producing countries with annual production of 36.2 million tons from eight million farming households. Pakistan is the fourth largest producer of milk in the world behind India, China and the United States. The sector spans eight million farming households that together produces around 36.2 million tons of milk annually, Minister for Livestock and Dairy Development Humayun Aziz Kurd said. He said the annual milk production across the country is worth as much as Rs 177 billion and is easily the largest product in the entire agriculture sector. Kurd said the overall contribution of dairying to the national economy is to the tune of Rs 540 billion with 97 percent of it being informal non-documented economic activity. He informed the House that at present, the total estimated demand in terms of liquid milk is 43.2 million tons in the country and the demand is computed on the basis of monthly consumption parameters in household expenditure survey. The minister told the House that as a result of present government policies of public-private partnership, the sector has registered a constant growth of around five percent. This five percent growth in the national dairying is off set by a demand which growing by 15 percent, said the minister. He told the House that the ministry has recently initiated projects to organize milk producers at the village level on mass scale and to have an integrated approach that may start from improving productivity animal, which in Pakistan is 3.15 litres per milk animal right up to the milk storage and cut down wastage.

(THROUGH ASIA PULSE)

How was Pakistan formed?

In 1947, India consisted of over 600 kingdoms and large British-ruled areas, all subject to the British crown. An independence movement led by an educated elite had formed by the early 1900s. Both Hindus and Muslims worked in and led this movement through the Indian National Congress, but orthodox Muslims were anxious about their role and identity in independent India. In 1916 the Muslim League, led by British-trained former Congress leader Mohammad Ali Jinnah, and the non-sectarian Congress reached an agreement called the Lucknow Pact which gave Muslims one-third of the seats in any future national legislature, a separate Muslim electorate and a provision to veto any legislation not approved by a majority of Muslim legislators. In return, the Muslim League, representing orthodox Muslims, agreed to support a united India

The larger independence movement led by Jawaharlal Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi, including a majority of progressive Muslims, was uncomfortable with a religion-based government. Therefore, the Lucknow Pact did not last long. The Motilal Nehru Report of 1928 defined the Congress position as a secular state with the option of population-based reservation for Muslims, i.e. 12% instead of one-third. Mr. Jinnah and the Muslim League rejected this position and began to embrace the idea of a separate country for Muslims, based on concepts and issues outlined by Muslim nationalist poet Mohammad Iqbal (letter to Jinnah, 1937)

As it became clear that independence was in the offing, the Muslim League led by Mr. Jinnah stepped up its opposition to a united India, and pressed aggressively for a separate country for Muslims called Pakistan, carved out of British India by a population-based formula. The Congress offered to make Mr. Jinnah the Prime Minister of united India and offered other minor concessions in an attempt to reach a truce.

The offer was spurned as superficial by Mr. Jinnah and the Muslim League. Their campaign for partition culminated in Direct Action Day on 14 August 1946, marked by fierce rioting in Calcutta in which mostly Hindus were killed and their property destroyed and looted, and there were loud calls for Jihad and threats of similar action in all major Indian cities, until partition was accepted. The Congress did not expect this violent turn of events, and its leaders Gandhi and Nehru were unsuccessful in placating the Muslim League.

Meanwhile, Sir Winston Churchill (who refused to dissolve the Empire) was no longer Prime Minister, and the new British government wanted to focus 100% on rebuilding Britain. They dispatched young Lord Mountbatten to India with instructions to set it free. Pressed for time by Mountbatten on one hand and implacable civil violence on the other, the Indian National Congress had no alternative except to accept Partition.

This is how Pakistan came to be, but more than half of Indian Muslims rejected the concept and stayed in India. Near-civil-war conditions prevailed in India and Pakistan for many months after partition. An irreconciliable dispute soon arose over the independent kingdom of Kashmir. Militias based in Pakistan overran large chunks of Kashmir near Pakistan. The King asked India to defend the kingdom, leading to full-scale war. The issue was taken up by the UN, but over 60 years later, no solution has been found. Pakistan and India have fought several wars, including a war in 1971 which split East Pakistan off to create Bangladesh.

Pakistan fulfilled Iqbal and Jinnah's vision of a Muslim country in preference to a pluralistic one where Muslims would have minority electoral power at best. Indian Muslims have far less political power than more numerous backward Hindu castes. It is not possible to compare the two models in economic and industrial terms because India and Pakistan have pursued radically different paths to development since independence.
