Village is a luxury that more than half of Pakistanis enjoy as about 65% of country's population lives in rural areas. Pakistan is basically an agriculture-based economy and largely depends on its villages for growth. Clean air, lush green views, pure milk, finest quality of dairy products and simple people are some of the happy things about life in a village.
But unfortunately, a couple of other factors are diminishing the true and happy spirit of villages. Lack of education, poor sanitation, poverty are the things that are generally associated with villages today. But in reality, villages are not that bad to live. In fact, some of them are much better than big cities of Pakistan. And following list of Pakistani villages just prove that.
1) Rasool Pur - Zero Crime Rate and 100% Literacy
Rasoolpur, a village with a population of 2000, is one of the exemplary villages as it has literacy rate near 100%. There are no kids out of school. This village has 2 high schools and crime rate their is 0.
2) Mamu Kanjan - No One Smokes in this village
It has population of more than 10,000 and no one smokes in this village. It has only 1 grand mosque where Azaan is delivered, other mosques have connected their speakers with the grand mosque to amplify Azaan.
3) Alam Pur Gondlan - A village where everyone is a double nationality holder
This village is named after Alam Pur in Gujrat that was one of the early inhabitants of this village. With a mission to improve lifestyle of his fellow villagers, he made efforts and sent almost everyone to European countries specially Norway in late 70s. Now, from 200 homes, at least one individual from almost every house is a double nationality holder.
4) Basti Tabu - Solving their problems without the support of government
Basti Tabu, Sadiqabad - This village sets an example as the inhabitants of this village have taken the responsibility upon themselves to resolve all their issues without the support of government. The sewerage system of this village is so unique that water they dispose off is accumulated using underground channels that is later used for fields. People from 16 to 49 are given special education to improve their environment and are trained for dairy farming along with education to improve their literacy. - source
5) Fatu Dedo - A clean village
Fatu Dedo village in Badin, Sindh is another village that set an example. Neglected by government, like most of the villages, this village shaped its own destiny. You wouldn't see a single unpaved street. It has underground sanitation, every misconduct is brought into the notice of the village authority and you will have to pay a fine if found littering in the street. Each house contributes a significant amount every month to keep their village clean.- source
6) Ehsanpur, Kot Addu - Fully solar-powered village
There are about 166 houses and it fully relies on solar energy. Ehsanpur is a village of Kot Addu Tehsil near Muzaffargarh that was without elecricity ever since. A solar system is installed on 20 acres and now this village fully relies on solar energy. Dhoke Attu Wali is another such village in Attock district that relies on Solar Energy. - source1 / source2
7) Kharian Tehsil - Richest Tehsil of Pakistan
Villages in Kharian Tehsil are richest villages in Pakistan and have most numbers of people settled abroad. Ratio of immigrants is so high that Kharian is often called as mini-Norway as most of its dwellers are Norway immigrants.
8) Villages of KPK - A natural cure to depression
Visit northern areas whenever you need a break from routine busy life and want to connect with your own self. You would see the best part of nature in these exotic villages. It is exemplary by nature, no major effort involved by human.
