Wāṇa or Wanna (Pashto: واڼه, romanized: wāṇa [ˈwɑɳə]; Urdu: وانا, lit. 'vānā' [ˈʋɑːnɑː]) is the largest town in the South Waziristan District of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. Wana had been the summer headquarters for the administration of South Waziristan Agency, while the city of Tank located in the neighbouring Tank District had been the winter headquarters of the agency. The town of Wana is also the headquarters of Wana Tehsil which is one of the three subdivisions of South Waziristan along with Ladha and Sarwakai. History Colonial history During the British Empire, beginning in the late 19th century, the British established a cantonment on the Wanna Plain which was used as a headquarters by the British forces in South Waziristan till the partition of India in 1947. During their rule, the Pashtun tribes of Waziristan - part of the Karlanri Tribal Confederation - gave the British much headache. In fact, the British, known then as the 'foreigners' , had to deal with a full-fledged insurgency in Waziristan in the 1930s. At one point during the 1930s, the British had up to 18,000 troops in and around Waziristan, with Wanna being used as the forward headquarters and airbase. Post-Independence During 1989, the city underwent a striking increase in Malaria with a village Azam Warsak suffering the most. Wanna in the war on terror Wanna has been involved in the war on terror due to the Al-Qaeda members affiliated with the Taliban-aligned Ahmadzai Waziris of the Wanna Plain. The Pakistan Armed forces have conducted several armed operations against these Al-Qaeda members since August 2003 off and on with limited success. Perhaps the town's most violent incident in the war on terror was the Battle of Wanna which took place in March 2004 and included fighters from the Pakistani Army against Al-Qaeda and Taliban forces. More than 100 armed personnel were killed during the week of the fighting. Ethnic background of inhabitants Inhabitants of Wanna are Muslim Pashtuns, primarily Ahmedzai Waziris from the Wazir tribe but other Pashtun tribes such as Mahsud and Bettani also live in the surroundings of Wanna.

Вана (город)

Вана (пушту واڼۀ‎, wɑɳə; англ. Wanna) — город в Зоне Племён Пакистана. Является столицей округа Южный Вазиристан. В связи с провозглашением независимости Вазиристана был объявлен столицей непризнанного государства. История Колониальный период Во время периода Британской империи, начинающегося в конце XIX века, британцы размещались на равнине Вана, которая служила штабом британских сил в Южном Вазиристане, вплоть до их ухода из Индии после разделения в 1947 году. Во время их управления, свирепые племена пуштунских вазиристанцев, части Племенной Конфедерации Карланри, были одной из больших проблем для Британского управления регионом. В 1930-х гг. британцы начали подавления мятежников в Вазиристане. В 1930‑х годах годов у британцев было не меньше 18 000 войск в Вазиристане, а Вана использовалась как передовой штаб и авиабаза. После обретения Пакистаном независимости С августа 2003 пакистанские вооружённые силы провели несколько вооружённых операции против Аль-Каиды с ограниченным успехом. Возможно, самым жестоким инцидентом в городе в войне с террором была битва за Вану в 2004 году. В 2006 году Талибан взял под контроль территорию города. В 2012 году правительством Пакистана был заново открыт аэропорт Вана. В 2015 году в городе открылся кадетский колледж ВС Пакистана.

The Hubco Coal Power Project (also known as the China Power Hub Generation Company or CPHGC) is a 1,320 MW super‑critical, imported-coal fired power station at Mouza Kund, Hub in Lasbela District, Balochistan, Pakistan. Developed as an early‑harvest energy scheme of the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), it began commercial operation on 17 August 2019. History Government processing for a large coal plant at Hub began in November 2014, followed by a letter of intent in June 2015 to a new joint venture between Hub Power Company (Hubco) and China Power International Holding (CPIH). A formal Joint‑Venture Agreement was signed on 20 April 2015, which established the project vehicle now known as CPHGC. The NEPRA approved an up‑front tariff for the scheme on 12 February 2016 and issued a 30‑year generation licence that September. Construction followed a ground‑breaking ceremony on 21 March 2017, and an operation and maintenance contract was concluded in April 2018 with Chinese engineering firms. Unit 1 was synchronised to the grid on 28 December 2018 and Unit 2 on 28 May 2019; a purpose‑built coal jetty became operational in late 2018. The Central Power Purchasing Agency certified commercial operation from 17 August 2019 with an initial tested capacity of 1,249 MW. Financing and ownership The final capital cost was reported at US$1.995 billion on a 75:25 debt‑to‑equity ratio.

The temple also hosts Lord Hanuman and Lord Ganesh. According to Gowswami Vijay Maharaj (caretaker of the temple), the temple hosts Lord Hanuman because when Hanuman flew to Lanka to save Sita from the clutches of Ravana over the sea, he was flying so fast that the Varuna Deva mounted his makara and asked who he was. After that every devotee who comes to worship Varuna Devta also pays their respects to Hanuman. References
Chanhu Daro

Chanhu Daro ist eine Ruinenstätte im heutigen Pakistan, in der Nähe von Sakrand. Es handelt sich um die Reste einer Stadt der Indus-Kultur (ca. 2500–1900 v. Chr.). Der Ort wurde von 1935 bis 1936 von einem amerikanischen Team ergraben. Der Ort besteht heute aus drei Hügeln, die in der Antike wohl einen Hügel darstellten. Es konnten bei den Grabungen drei Siedlungsphasen unterschieden werden. Die erste, die nochmals von den Ausgräbern in a, b und c unterteilt wurde, gehört der eigentlichen Indus-Kultur an, die zweite der Jhukar-Kultur und die dritte der Jhangar-Kultur. Die Stadt war nach einem Plan mit sich rechtwinklig kreuzenden Straßen errichtet. Es fanden sich zahlreiche Belege für Handwerksbetriebe und die Reste einer monumentalen Plattform. Die Jhukar- und Jhangarschichten zeigen, dass die Stadt in dieser Zeit verarmte. Die alten Wohnbauten wurden teilweise weiter benutzt und umgebaut, dabei gibt es aber auch Belege, dass die ärmeren Bevölkerungsschichten in einfachen Mattenhütten lebten. Die Siegel dieser Zeit sind von einfacher Qualität. Nach 900 v. Chr. wurde die Stadt aufgegeben. Literatur Ernest Mackay: Chanhu-daro excavation, 1935–36.

Чанху-Даро

Чанху-Даро — город цивилизации долины Инда, существовавший в XL—XVII веках до н. э. (после чего был заселён представителями послехараппских культур) в 130 км к югу от Мохенджо-Даро, в 20 км к востоку от Инда, на территории современной провинции Синд в Пакистане. Археологический памятник Чанху-Даро занимает территорию в 5 га. Открыт индийским археологом Нани Маджумдаром в марте 1930 года, в 1935—1936 годах велись раскопки английским археологом Э. Маккеем. Чанху-Даро был одним из наиболее значимых городов индской цивилизации. Исследователями отмечено, что он был очень похож (особенно в плане строительства) на другие крупные индские города: Хараппу и Мохенджо-Даро. Только в надписях, найденных в Чанху-Даро, содержится символ «||/», что даёт основание полагать, что он может быть названием города. Город находится в пустынной местности, но, как считается, река Сарасвати в древности протекала возле него. Во 2-м тысячелетии до н. э. река начала пересыхать, жить вдали от воды стало тяжело и люди стали покидать Чанху-Даро. Считается, что пересыхание Сарасвати стало одной из причин упадка Индской цивилизации. После некоторого перерыва в XVI—XV веках до н. э. поселение было заселено представителями культуры Джхукар, а в XII—XI веках Джхангар. Для строительства в Чанху-Даро использовался обожжённый кирпич. Ряд руин был определён как остатки производственных зданий и складов. Считается, что по масштабам ремесленного производства, в котором было занято не менее половины населения города, Чанху-Даро превосходило Мохенджо-Даро. В городе имелась крупная мастерская по производству бисера и других украшений. Предполагают, что в Чанху-Даро могли изготавливать пломбы. Были найдены медные ножи, копья, бритвы, сосуды, блюда, медные рыболовные крючки, топоры и другие инструменты. Был найден свисток в виде птицы, статуэтки копьеметателя и танцовщицы. Из сельскохозяйственных культур в Чанху-Даро возделывались кунжут и горох. Литература McIntosh, Jane.(2008) The Ancient Indus Valley: New Perspectives. ABC-CLIO. (англ.)

In the same year 1922, he was elected president of the Karachi Municipality, an office he occupied till October 1932. He was born in 1886 in Karachi and died on 8 August 1952.
