  22. INDUS RIVER ROAD PROJECT “It is no exaggeration to state that this road brought civilization & relative prosperity to the area. The cost of daily necessities was cut drastically and the people discovered a better way of life. It was Nation Building in a genuine sense. It’s completion marked a major step taken to knit the outlying regions of Gilgit, Hazara and Swat into Pakistan. Besides money and effort the Army sacrificed THE LIFE OF ONE SOLDIER PER MILE (for a total of 158 miles).” Nation Building and the Pakistan Army Raymond A Moore, Jr.

  23. 1953 ML IN LAHORE • Within 5 days Lahore was back to normal. But, due to great public demand, the Govt ordered the Army to stay on and clean up the city. • Action was taken against food smuggling, criminals and wasteful spending on marriages. Roads were repaired, pavements laid, health precautions instituted and buildings cleaned up. Civic pride was instilled in the citizens. • The response was excellent and people in Karachi and Dhaka also began asking for the Army. This alarmed the Govt and led to the lifting of ML. Nation Building and the Pakistan Army Raymond A Moore, Jr.
