Foreword
It is a point of great pleasure for us that P&DD despites its meager resources has been maintaining printing
of statistical publications on regular basis. The final version of the “AJK AT A Glance 2015” containing
vital statistical data is completed and readily available for dissemination to the primary and secondary users.
This booklet is the only source containing vital statistics on socio-economic indicators of the State. The key
information in it is catalyst for informed decisions making and realistic planning. It is also instrumental for
policy designers and planners in both public and private sector.

The “Azad Kashmir AT A Glance” is the only reference book for important AJK’s statistics containing
sector-wise information which was regularly published by the P&DD. The task of publishing “Azad
Kashmir AT A Glance 2015” is now designated to the AJKBoS and it has succeeded in producing this
document with an active support from P&DD and the Line Departments.

I would like to appreciate the efforts of the staff of AJKBoS and P&DD who proactively worked for the
production of this quality document, virtually instrumental for all the development partners within AJK and
outside it.

My special thanks are also due for all the stakeholders/Line Departments of GoAJK for their continuous and
unprecedented support in providing timely and adequate information without which the publication of this
reference book would have not been possible at all.

As the establishment of AJKBoS would help removing the capacity and skill gaps in data collection and
management in AJK so I am expecting a significant improvement in this document in future. Your inputs
and suggestions in this context are vital and would be appreciated and acknowledged at all levels.

PREAMBLE

The State of Azad Jammu and Kashmir is endowed with abundant natural resources and ample
human resource dominated by talented and educated youth. These precious endowments need to be
exploited optimally while the Government of AJK is doing its level best to harvest these valuable
assets in a way that could help improving the socio-economic conditions of the people of AJK. The
availability of credible statistics is key input in this context and AJKBoS with generous support from
the Statistics Section of P&DD has been making tremendous efforts to fill the prevailing data gaps,
which certainly warrants special appreciation. Here, the co-operation and generous support from the
Government of Pakistan, Federal agencies and other development partners is gratefully
acknowledged. It also merit special thanks for its contribution in bridging the information and
resource gaps in AJK data collection and management.

“Azad Kashmir AT A Glance” is a regular annual publication now mandated to be produced by


AJKBoS. It is a brief reference book for important AJ&K Statistics containing data on almost all
development sectors of the State Economy at various administrative levels along with some
important national statistics on key indicators necessary to make comparison with national indices.

The present issue of the Azad Kashmir AT A Glance is 20th in the series. The scope of this unique
publication is determined in consultation with the stakeholders/ Line Departments along with active
support of data producing agencies. However, it remained under constant review and thus the format
of the forthcoming issue of this document is modified in light of the feedback form the concerned
Departments to enhance the credibility and utility of this unique document.

I take this opportunity to extend my heartiest thanks for the support provided to AJKBoS in its
infancy by the different Federal and State Organizations along with Autonomous Bodies by timely
furnishing the data key to this publication.

AJKBoS would highly appreciate valuable comments and suggestions from the stakeholders/ Line
Departments for improving the format and contents of forthcoming “AJK AT A Glance” issues.

PROFILE OF AJ&K REGION

Geographical and Socio-Economic conditions:

Topography

The state of Azad Jammu and Kashmir lies between longitude 73 o – 75o and latitude 33o – 36o
and comprises an area of 5,134 square miles (13,297 square kilometers). AJ&K falls within the
Himalayan organic belt. As such, its topography is mainly hilly and mountainous characterized by deep
ravines, rugged, and undulating terrain. The northern districts (Neelum, Muzaffarabad, Hattian, Bagh,
Haveli, Poonch, and Sudhnoti) are generally mountainous while southern districts (Kotli, Mirpur, and
Bhimber) are relatively plain. The mountain ecosystems are relatively unstable and have low inherent
productivity. Within this fragile environment, however, there is a great variety of ecological niches
upon which people base their livelihood. Small land holdings and scarcity of cultivable land are the
main factors limiting on-farm income. The area is full of natural beauty with thick forests, fast flowing
rivers and winding streams. Main rivers are Jhelum, Neelum and Poonch.
Climate
Depending on the altitude that varies from 360 meters in the South to 6,325 meters in the North,
AJ&K has a wide range of climatic conditions. The South has dry sub-tropical climate while the North
most moist temperate. There is significant variation in the rainfall pattern across different regions both
in terms of amount and distribution. Average annual rainfall ranges from 1000 mm to 2000 mm. In the
northern districts 30% to 60% precipitation is in the shape of snow. In winter, snow line is around 1200
meters while in summer it is 3300 meters. Average maximum temperature ranges from 20°C to 32°C
while the average minimum temperature range is 04 to 07°C
Soil
Based on the location, the soil in AJ&K can be broadly grouped into 03 categories:
Soil of mountain plateau is generally leached and relatively infertile.
Soil of mountain slopes is gravelly loam, shallow and deficient in organic matter.
Soil of inter-mountainous valleys is alluvial with a high agricultural potential.

REGIONAL VARIATIONS

The terrain, resources and socio-economic conditions vary across different regions.
Muzaffarabad Division, the largest division is less accessible and the poorest, especially the northern
part of District Neelum. As one moves south from Muzaffarabad towards Bagh, then Poonch, Sudhnoti
and Kotli, the valley widens up and agricultural production increases. The area is more accessible,
especially from Pakistan. The line of control (LOC) area with Indian occupied Kashmir (IOK) remains
a restricted zone; otherwise life carries on as usual. Kotli is partially hilly whereas Bhimber and Mirpur
are plains and similar to agricultural regions of northern Punjab. Settlement size is larger here and rich
in agricultural production.

Languages

Urdu is the official language of Azad Jammu & Kashmir but is spoken by only a minority of people.
Other languages are Gojri, Kashmiri and Pahari. The dominant language spoken in the state is Pahari
with different accent which is very similar to Pothwari and Hindko.

Economic Development

At the time of partition in 1947, the economy of Azad Jammu and Kashmir was on subsistence
level but the determination to develop the area was there. In early 70’s, economic development of the
area started in earnest. Despite financial constraints, planners made good efforts in laying down a
proper path for the rapid development of the area.

Per Capita Income and Employment:-

The majority of the rural population depends on forestry, livestock, agriculture and non-formal
employment to eke out its subsistence. National average per capita income has been estimated to be US
$1512 and according to Labour Force Survey (LFS) unemployment rate in AJ&K is 14.4%**. In line
with the National trends, indicators of social sector particularly health and population have not shown
much proficiency. Efforts have been made during the recent past to make up this deficiency so that the
fruits of development can be brought to the door step of every common man.

HYDRO POWER GENERATION

Electricity facility was available to few villages of District Muzaffarabad & Mirpur up to 1973-74. Since
then a phased program was planned to provide electricity to urban & rural population, which is being continued.
Under this program, several projects have been implemented through which electricity distribution network has
been expanded to 95% population of AJ&K. Up to December 2015, approximately 5,63,059 service
connections have been provided under this program.

AJ&K has identified potential of hydro power generation of 8695.46 MW of electricity using its
natural resources.

Area under cultivation is around 1,940,82 hectares, which is almost 13% of the total Geographical area
out of which 92% of the cultivable area is rain-fed. About 87% households have very small land holdings
between one to two acres. Major crops are Maize, Wheat & Rice whereas minor crops are Grams, Pulses (Red
Kidney Beans), Vegetables and Oil-seeds. Major fruits produced in AJ&K are Apple, Pears, Apricot and
Walnuts. Agriculture and livestock income ranges between 30-40% of household earnings.

The remaining share comes from other sources including employment, businesses and remittances
received by the families of AJ&K living abroad. Reduced agriculture productivity has adversely affected the
traditional lifestyle and per capita income of the rural households .
