Roads

Roads and air transport are the only modes of the transportation in Azad Jammu & Kashmir. The present road length position and its comparison with the position in 1947 are given below: -

POWER

At present, the installed Grid capacity is 270 MVA. The transmission lined have been extended to 1589 villages (17000 Kilometers) out of 1646 and about 350,000 consumers have been provided with connections. The per capita electricity delivered for consumption in Azad Kashmir is 280 KWH. At the time of independence power facility was practically non-existent in Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The Government lays great emphasis on generating electricity in order to meet the growing domestic as well as industrial requirements. It was planned to launch a program for constructing a number of small Hydel Station and six hydel stations have been completed as a result.

PIPED WATER SUPPLY

At the time of independence, availability of piped water supply was non- existent and significant progress has been made in this regard so far. Presently 77% of the urban population and 62% of rural population has been provided with a piped water supply through house connections and public stands.

EDUCATION

27 % of total recurring budget besides 10% of total development budget is allocated to education sector. As a result of this substantial investment AJ&K literacy rate is well above 60% of total population. Gross enrolment rate at primary level is 95% for boys and 88 % for girls.

AIRPORTS

The Government of Azad Jammu and Kashmir in collaboration with the Civil Aviation Authority of Pakistan has constructed two small airports at Muzaffarabad and Rawalakot cities in recent past in order to provide easy and fast mode of travel (Presently Suspended) This facility is also expected to be extended to Mirpur and Kotli cities later on.
