Stone Age village near DIK Pakistan


DERA ISMAIL KHAN: In a Stone Age village located near here some four thousand residents even today are deprived of potable water, health centre and education, leaving them with no other option but to leave the village for a place where they could at least survive.
Some four thousand people residing in an 18th century village Wandajandar located at a distance of six kilometer from Darapizo narrating their woes told that their village though exists on the Pakistan map, but it seems that it doesn’t in Pakhtunkhaw.
He said they are perennially kept deprived of basic facilities such as clean water, which is seldom supplied, while a rundown school set up in 1964 with 200 barefooted children on roll has no electricity, no potable water, no furniture and manned by only one teacher, no wonder the bundles of new books remain unpacked.
The state of affairs in the girls’ school is no better as regards the facilities available, where the students have been awaiting a lady teacher fruitlessly for long.
Elected representatives of both the provincial and federal level remain oblivious to this woeful state of affairs in which these villagers have been forced to live.
Wandajandar village, reminding of a Stone Age village witnesses the only happy moment every morning when the Pakistan Flag is hoisted with prayer “Oh God, keep our homeland’s flag flying high ever.”
