Queen Kohsar, Mafia and Tourism!

 

            Murree is a healthy place in Rawalpindi district of Punjab which is located at a distance of 39 km from Rawalpindi. It has an elevation of 7,500 feet and an area of ​​1,821 square kilometers. When the East India Company occupied the Punjab in 1849, they found a single cool area for Murree recreation where the first barracks were built in 1851. Hospitals, numerous schools and modern hotels continued to be built over time, and many families moved from the Twin Cities to Murree for business. Many families are now living here. Murree's population has reached 25,000 and after one generation, the second generation now calls itself Murree's Housing. Due to the growing trend towards Murree and business opportunities, the Murree population will double in the next ten years. Murree is actually a series of hills which are very green, beautiful and charming. Geographically, these hills have been named as Sivalik. It is covered with rags and cedar trees that look like a crown on the queen's head. That is why it is called Queen Kohsar. This short but high region has gained popularity for two reasons, the biggest reason being its tourist area and the second major reason is the buildings built by the British which caused the death. Gained importance as a tourist destination. At the political level, this area belongs to the constituency of Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, who is a very strong political leader here. One of the reasons for their popularity is that they have a very close relationship with every household in Murree and they stand side by side in all their good and bad deeds. That is why most of the locals call themselves Abbasi and consider themselves Abbasi. Shahid Khaqan Abbasi is an astute politician and belongs to a family that is counted among the benefactors of Pakistan. After the fall of Dhaka, when Pakistan was in a very difficult economic situation, Khaqan Abbasi gave billions to the state which proved to be useful in keeping the economy afloat. Those who do good to the state should not forget the state or the people of the state. The alleys formed in the mountain valleys of Murree add to its beauty.

            Tourists are fascinated by these streets. Handicrafts and other elegant items reflecting local cultures, traditions and then the beautiful people of Murree have added to its charm. The current government has paid extraordinary attention to tourism. That is why, in addition to the uneven and difficult routes of Murree, a new motorway has been constructed which connects Murree's main tourist destinations Bhurban and Patrata to Islamabad. Much research has been done on its annual budget and revenue but no record has been found. Under the Transparency and Access to Information Act, Murree authorities should be required to post information on local administration websites. According to some credible and elderly people, there is no law and order in Murree and the government cannot interfere in any way. This is because of the mafia here which neither pays taxes nor obeys any law. Corruption has taken over everything. Food and drink are so expensive that a happy tourist hangs his head and returns. The living conditions are also very bad. The facilities that are mentioned before booking a flat in a hotel are not available at all. In addition, you will never be billed in writing. If you insist on a bill or housing comforts, the bully will cheat you and take money and other valuables from you. Locals who are fed up with this scandal have said that these people actually belong to Rawalpindi and they have the full support of Shahid Khaqan Abbasi. Several times when the police acted on the complaints of the tourists about their bigotry, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi released them on his own bail. He further said that one of the major reasons for inflation here is that this mafia of Shahid Khaqan Abbasi receives extortion from all traders, and they mostly try not to let any trader do business outside Rawalpindi. Coins First of all, the entire revenue of this tourist center should be deposited in the government treasury so that the government would take steps for its development and welfare, but the lucrative tourist destination is also causing loss. From the parking mafia to the political mafia, all groups are full of linguistic and regional prejudices, which is why they spare no effort to humiliate other language speakers from Punjab and Pakistanis from different provinces. Especially since the current government has started working on various projects to promote tourism in Pakistan, this mafia seems to be more active. Most tourists head to Murree during the cold winter months because they want to enjoy the snow. In these two months, Queen Kohsar's colors and snowfall add to its beauty. Two years ago, a boycott campaign was launched in Murree. It was also a reaction to the same attitudes, if such If people have been hated, then the government's claims of tourism development will remain unsubstantiated. Because no matter how many new places are opened, every tourist place has its own status which can never end. The government should hand over the portfolio of tourism in Pakistan to a regular and dynamic representative who will take all possible steps for the promotion and development of tourism. If we take a look, from a small court to a major tourist destination, there is a mafia in full swing everywhere that the local administration can never take action against. In this way, billions of rupees are being lost annually to the state exchequer. However, this can be very beneficial in the revenue budget.
