		Afghania is another name that has slowly gained acceptance.
		In fact, its proponents argue that Afghania was the name given to the NWFP by Chaudhry Rahmat Ali when he coined the word Pakistan.
		The "a" in Pakistan was supposed to refer to Afghania just like "p" for Punjab, "k" for Kashmir, "s" for Sindh and "tan" for Balochistan.

		Anyway, more than half of present day Pakistan (Pastan), in particular Afghania, Balochistan, Rojhan in Sindh and Dera Ismail and Dera Ghazi Khan in Punjab were hardly ever part of India until the British seized the territory and incorporated it as part of the British Indian Raj.
		C.R.Ali wanted freedom for the five Muslim `Indian' homelands in North West India, namely Punjab, Afghania, Kashmir, Sindh and BalochistaN from British colonial rule, followed by their re-integration with the three Muslim `Asian' homelands of Afghanistan, Iran and Tukharistan.
		P.A.K.I.S.T.A.N. was to form the eastern flank to the heartland of Islam, as it had been before it was broken up through infighting by the Mughals, Safavids and Afghans; and then by the colonial legacy of the McMahon, Durand and Goldsmid Borders.

		This school of thought believes in an autonomous Pakhtunkhwa or Afghania province within the perimeters of Pakistan in consonance with the Pakistan Resolution of 1940.
		This school of thought advocates re-drawing the province on linguistic basis, comprising the Pakhtun population of NWFP and Balochistan to be named as Pakhtunkhwa or Afghania to shed explicit identity of the Pakhtun inhabitants.
		The holders of this hypothesis term this shape of affairs representing the true sentiments and aspirations of the overwhelming majority of Pakhtuns living in Pakistan.

	Committee gets PMAP support: New name for NWFP -DAWN - National; July 21, 2005
		He said the names of Pukhtunistan, Afghania and Pukhtunkhwa were acceptable to the PMAP but it was opposed to Abasin and Khyber, which were the names of a river and a mountain pass, respectively.
		However, his party was ready to accept the two other names, Afghania and Pukhtunkhwa, which referred to identity of the Pukhtuns, he added.
		After the change of the province’s name, the PMAP would launch a struggle to get the Federally Administered Tribal Areas, Pukhtun area of Balochistan and the districts of Mainsail and Attack annexed with ‘Pukhtunkhwa’, he announced.

		He criticized the Muttihada Majlis-i-Amal for strengthening the hands of President Gen Pervez Musharraf to endorse the 17th amendment and paving way for establishment of the National Security Council.
		He demanded that all divided administrative areas inhabited by Pukhtuns in the NWFP, Balochistan and the Federally-Administrated Tribal Areas should be amalgamated in one united administrative province and should be named Pukhtunkhwa, Pukhtunistan or Afghania.
		The meeting adopted several resolutions demanding the government to compensate the victims of drought-hit areas and the affected farmers' bank loans should be waived off; privatization o Wapda should be put off; and funds in the projects of water management programme should be distributed on merit.

	Role of Religion in Indo-Pakistan Tensions
		In India after 1947, a community of Muslim elitists still pursues Urdu as the sole official language of the Uttar Pradesh Province, the Muslims political strong hold in India before Partition.
		In 1933, Rahmat Ali proposed the name Pakistan ("Land of the Pure") which encompassed the Muslim territorial aspirations and Muslim majority areas: Punjab, Afghania (the NW Frontier), Kashmir, Sind, and Baluchistan.
		In 1936, Muslims lost their political hold over U.P.; thus Muslims stopped campaigning for minority rights and started campaigning for a separate homeland where Muslims were the majority as espoused by the poet Muhammad Iqbal in 1930.

		But then, Mohammed Ali Jinnah was a breed apart from the rest of the people they call Pakistanis, although it must be said that Jinnah too never ever went to prison during the fight for Independence.
		Once one poses the question, one is sure to be stuck for hours to listen to the unending explanations of every word and how they came about: P for Punjab, A for Afghania, K for Kashmir, S for Sind and TAN for the tail of Baluchistan.
		The raconteur will expect an admiring look from the non-Muslim listener and during the discourse, several unsolicited comments will be thrown around at the Hindu population of the subcontinent, suggesting that such people are not really worthy of a free land of their own.

		Since the ouster of last communist regime of Dr Najibullah and during the rule or misrule of Mujahideen and Taliban, Pakistan had been able to orchestrate and implement quite successfully its Afghan policy to safeguard its interests viz a viz Pushtoonistan issue in particular.
		The current intensity in the army offensive in the tribal belt with consequent death toll can inject a new and timely lease of life among those who are alreading demanding in Pakistan the formation of "Afghania" or "Pukhtoonistan"—-an ethnic Pushtoon province which also comprises some areas of Balochistan, including Quetta.
		In the case of Quetta, a cold-war has been brewing between a large number of Baloch and Pushtoon nationalists for quite some time because of a dispute over Balochistan capital and its surroundings.

		The word is an invented acronym, coined in 1933 by a group of Cambridge students who issued a pamphlet entitled
		The pamphlet stated that "Pakistan" was "composed of letters taken from the names of our homelands: that is, Punjab, Afghania, Kashmir, Iran, Sindh, Tukharistan, Afghanistan, and Baluchistan." To say that Pakistan is the "land of the Paks" is to say that it is the land of the "spiritually pure and clean," according to the pamphlet.
		But perhaps because "Paks" are not a people in the same sense as Afghans or Uzbeks, the citizens of Pakistan have come to be known as "Pakistanis."

		An alternative explanation says the name means "Land of the Pure".
