Latest News Updates of Tehreek e Soba Hazara

Tehreek-e-Sooba Hazara has lost it's momentum and now after a split in the leadership of Sooba Hazara movement after which two factions have been formed in tehreek, people of Hazara are now disappointed from the immature political moves of Tehreek-e-Soba Hazara movement and hopes of formation of new province for people of Hazara have gone very low.

What's the latest update of Soba Hazara movement and what's going on regarding this movement can be observed from the following news items from different newspapers of Hazara division (Daily Shamal Abbottabad and Daily Muhasab Abbottabad).

Sardar Yousuf who is leader of one faction of Tehreek e Soba Hazara is planning to hold a big jalsa in Abbottabad with reference to Sooba Hazara movement in the month of October:

After the split in Soba Hazara movement, PML-N has started criticizing PML-Q local leadership stating that they were just trying to score political points on the name of Soba Hazara movmenet and after getting ministership in the center with an alliance with PPP, now they have forgotten the cause and are enjoying the governance. Sardar Mushtaq who is PML-N leader from Haripur stated that PML-N will form Soba Hazara after coming into power:



Soba Hazara Movement Progress So far--An analysis of Soba Hazara Movement

  The momentum of Suba Hazara  Tehreek(Hazara Province movement) seems to be decreasing with the passage of time and leaders of Tehreek-e-Soba Hazara are now not as much active as they were in past year but it seems that now each and every political party is in favor of formation of new provinces including Soba Hazara and a separate province for people of Southern Punjab.

PML-Q has supported Suba Hazara movement from day 1 and they have raised voice for Suba Hazara on all forums including National Assembly and Senate. The top leadership of Suba Hazara movement also comes from PML-Q. One might have dozens of differences with past politics of PML-Q but the fact remains that they rightly represented the sentiments of people of Hazara at the time of this move when PML-N has totally betrayed people of Hazara.
 The role of local leadership of Jamat-e-Islami and PPP remains totally hypocritic as they supported renaming of N..W.F.P. as Khyber Pakhtunkhwah in Senate and National Assembly but on the local level, they are trying to keep their politics alive by showing a support to Soba Hazara Movement. Sardar Idrees of PPP who was previously in JUI-F is showing his full support for Province Hazara. Similarly, local leadership of JI is also taking strong part in all activities of Suba Hazara movement.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has also took an active part in this movement so-far and local leadership of PTI and ISF (Insaf Students Federation) have worked on all forums to speak for the rights of the people of Hazara. ISF Abbottabad has played main role in all Jalsa's, rallies and protests of Suba Hazara movement.

  Current state of efforts of people of Hazara under the umbrella of Tehreek-e-Soba Hazara shows that they will finally reach to their destination and will get a unique identity and it seems that time is not very far when a new province with the name of Soba Hazara will emerge on the map of Pakistan.

Province Hazara Movement--An analysis

After renaming of N.W.F.P. as Khyber Pakhtunkhwah, the movement of a separate province for the people of Hazara has gained a huge momentum and a strong support of masses at all levels. The movement of Province Hazara has been initiated under the leadership of Ex-District Nazim Baba Haider Zaman and other prominent leaders who are very active in this movement include Gohar Ayub Khan, Ex-Deputy speaker Sardar Muhammad Yaqoob, Ex-petroleum minister Aman-Ullah Khan Jadoon and Azhar Jadoon.
In the last month, Boards of Suba Hazara (Province Hazara) were formally hoarded at the two main entry points of Hazara Division from Punjab and Kashmir, i.e. at Barian near Murree and at Kohala which separates Hazara from Azad Jammu & Kashmir. Ironically, even those parties whose top leadership supported renaming of NW.F.P. as Khyber Pakhtunkhwah are also supporting Province Hazara Movement at local level. Sardar Muhammad Idress who changed his loyalty after last elections and jumped into PPP from JUI-F is one such example. He is strongly supporting Province Hazara movement. This movement has currently support of almost all major parties in the division including PML-Q, Jamat-e-Islami, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Hazara Qaumi Mahaz and various other small political and religious parties. However, PML-N is playing on backfoot as the whole mud is being thrown on PML-N by Hazara Province movement leaders saying that PML-N has betrayed people of Hazara and got blackmailed by ANP on the condition of third time premiership.
Ex president, Genral Retired Pervez Musharraf has also announced his full support for Province Hazara (and some other provinces as well) and Ham Khayal Group of PML-Q is also in strong support of Province Hazara. Under such conditions, it seems that now the dream of Suba Hazara will turn into a reality very soon and people of Hazara will get a distinct identity based on their culture.
