The Hill Kharias are one of the tribes residing in the hilly or forest areas of the Purulia district of West Bengal and Singbhum district of Jharkhand. The Hill Kharias are one of the three sub-divisions of the Kharias, the two others being Dudh Kharias and Dhelki Kharias. The Hill Kharias prefer to confine themselves in the inhospitable hilly and forest areas, and they mostly depend on forest resources such as fruits, honey and edible roots etc. for their livelihood.

| Summary/Abstract |
The insurrection in Pakistan's tribal areas has been unexpectedly robust, lethal, and resilient, which has surprised many in Pakistan and the Western world. The focus of the violence emanating from this region is not confined to Afghanistan or Pakistan alone, but spans the entire world, especially Europe and North America. A number of external actors like Al Qaeda and its associates are exploiting the prevailing lawlessness in Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) for sanctuary and a base for their logistical, training, and operational purposes, while the local Taliban reap rich financial rewards in the mayhem.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article argues that an internal armed conflict exists in Pakistan and the law of armed conflict together with human rights law applies to it. It is further argued that both the security forces of Pakistan and the Pakistani Taliban have and will continue to violate these laws and to expose the Taliban's violations alone is only a half-truth. To conclude, the reasonable prospects, or lack thereof, of the war crimes committed in this conflict to be prosecuted are discussed

| Summary/Abstract |
Pakistan has paid a very heavy price for a military ruler’s decision to support the US-led “war on terror” in the region. That decision, made by Gen. Pervez Musharraf more than 14 years ago, led to the expansion of militant groups in the country; the introduction of suicide bombings, which were unheard of before 2004; and a major economic downturn that brought high unemployment and inequality. Just before Musharraf came to power in 1999, only 17 percent of Pakistan’s population lived at or below the poverty line. By 2008, 37 percent had fallen into this category. These slow-motion ripple effects of the US-led war in Afghanistan were not unexpected, but most of them have been extremely painful for ordinary Pakistanis to live through.
