Qamar Zaman Kaira, Minister for Kashmir Affairs and Northern Areas
 

About Gilgit Baltistan


Note: Courtesty of Geo News Pakistan and Jawab Deh of Iftikhar Ahman for inclusion of this video in our web site to give awareness to the people of Gilgit Baltistan about their constitutional rights

 

Qamar Zaman Kaira was elected to the National Assembly in a coalition government of PPP, ANP, MQM and JUI-F formed after 2008 elections. He is a senior leader of Pakistan Peoples Party, having won from his local constituency in Gujrat. He was selected to the office of Federal Minister for Kashmir Affairs and Northern Areas on March 31, 2008, and was given the additional office of Federal Minister for Information on March 14, 2009.

He says, " Northern Areas are part Pakistan not constitutionally but are part of Pakistan administratively." The Gujar also says that he was unable to visit to Northern Areas because of the bad weather.

An excerpt from the constitution of Pakistan about its territorial ambit is included in the right column.

 
The Republic and its territories

(2) The territories of Pakistan shall comprise :-

(c) Federally Administered Tribal Areas; and
