My District Karak














Karak is the one of the most beautiful district of KPK. It is located 123 kilometer from Peshawar. Until 1940 it was ruled by Teri Nawab. After 1940 it was part of kohat till to 1982. At start of 1983 it become independent district with karak is capital. There are three tehsil in district karak, ( Takht-e-nasrati, Banda Daud shah and Karak ). The district is mostly populated by Khattak tribe, one of the famous tribe of Pushton.District karak mostly contain low range mountain but there are high range mountain. These mountain mostly contain minerals such is salt, gypsum, uranium coal etc. Nowadays the one of the most important minerals that is discovered by the Germany company is oil and gas, also now they are making Pakistan second biggest oil refinery which will bring prosperity in karak.                                                                   The temperature of karak reached up to 33 degree in summer, but in winter it reached even to minus.Most of the people of karak is in Pak Army, but some people have their own business such is Pee nuts, Corn etc. Karak is famous for hunting of Quails in KPK. People out side from KPK  alsocome for hunting. There are a number of festival takes part in karak on weekly basis.The population of karak is approixmatly 550000.The litracy   rate is about 95%, after Islamabad , but in Islamabad mostly people is migrated so i think would be in first position in Pakistan.                                                                                                                        Karak is the only district in KPK which touches the boundaries with many distrit such is Kohat, Hangu,Bannu, Lakki Marwat, Qorram agency, Main Wali etc. The people of karak is very lovely, peaceful.
