HARIPUR: Train service from Havelian suspended -DAWN - Local; 22 February, 2005 The suspension orders of the profit-earning route were implemented on Sunday when a number of passengers from across the Hazara division had got their seats and berths reserved several days ago from the booking offices of Mansehra, Abbottabad, Havelian and Haripur. The announcement came as a shock to passengers, including women and children, who were waiting for the train for hours at Havelian and Haripur railway stations in chilly weather.

The newest of these efforts, the Scholars at Risk Network, is clearly part of the Havelian tradition. www.umich.edu /~iinet/journal/vol8no1/Kennedy8-1.htm   (2297 words)

Opinion Iraq and Iran used this in the ‘battle of cities’ and Afghanistan tried to target POF Wah during the Afghan War, but the wayward missile landed somewhere near Havelian. All the same this rattled Pakistan whose iron triangle lies in the triangle Havelian Wah, Sanjwal. India is not listed by Aaron Karp in his book ‘Ballistic Missile Proliferation, the Politics and Technics’, but I have a strong suspicion that the Indians must have benefited from Soviet Russian assistance in their missile fabrication, especially the earlier ones like ‘Prithvi’ etc. www.defencejournal.com /2002/dec/scud.htm   (1487 words)

Pakistan approves rail links to China, Afghanistan - India News While feasibility studies of the two are to be undertaken shortly, ahead of them would be a project laying a 940-km rail track to link Quetta, capital of the troubled Balochistan, with Gwadar, where a military base and a port have been readied with Chinese help.

Gateway to Sikhism :Muslim League Attack on Sikhs and Hindus in the Punjab 1947   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) A massacre of Hindus and Sikhs in Havelian was averted only by the timely arrival of the military; but stray killing of Hindus and Sikhs continued for weeks. By the end of December, 1946 conditions in the Havelian area had deteriorated so far that all Hindus and Sikhs of this area had to leave their homes and property at the mercy of the Muslim marauders, and seek safety of life and honour in the Punjab. At a place called Daddar in Hazara District, on 11.12.1946, 40 Hindu and Sikh evacuees from the surrounding area were waylaid by Muslims; 10 of them were killed and the rest were seriously wounded. allaboutsikhs.com /books/gst/chap-03.htm   (5136 words)

The Scud Missile Syndrome Iraq and Iran used this in the battle of cities and Afghanistan tried to target POF Wah during the Afghan War - but the wayward missile landed somewhere near Havelian. (May be they might have tried to target Havelian where there is a large explosive factory producing propellants for the weapons produced in the POF.) All the same, the Afghani intention was not quite clear - and only a marginal damage was done which was not serious at all. So the CEP of the Scud could be many hundred meters - and at the best the missile could be used for engagement of area targets. www.defencejournal.com /may99/scud-missile.htm   (1509 words)
