CENTO: Encyclopedia II - Pakistan - Economy

Pakistan - Overview. Pakistan, a developing country, is the sixth most populous in the world and has faced a number of challenges on the political and economic fronts. Although a very poor country when it became independent in 1947, in the 1960s Harvard economists proclaimed it to be a model of economic development. In each of its first four decades, Pakistan's economic growth rate was better than the global average, but imprudent policies led to a slowdown in the late 1990s. Since then, the Pakistani government ...

CENTO: Encyclopedia II - Operation Blue Star - Stand-off

Thus far religious risks of storming the shrine had led to a tense stand-off and the security forces were still hoping that the militants would surrender, making a direct attack unnecessary. Amid fears of declaration of independence by Bhindranwale and support from Pakistan, Indira Gandhi decided to send troops inside the temple. Bhindranwale declared he would die as a martyr and any military action within the temple would unite the Sikhs of India. Notably, earlier in a BBC interview, Bhrindranwale had stated that he did not wish to d ...

In October 1983, 600 top soldiers of the Indian army began rehearsing an assault on the Akal Takhat at a secret location in the Chakrata Hills about 150 miles north of Delhi.
