Diran peak is a mountain in the Karakoram range in Nagar Valley and Bagrot Valley Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. This 7,266-metre (23,839 ft) pyramid shaped mountain lies to the east of Rakaposhi (7,788m). Diran is the most dangerous mountain in Pakistan as its snow is the cause of many events resulting in hundreds of deaths. Diran was first climbed in 1968 by three Austrians: Rainer Goeschl, Rudolph Pischinger and Hanns Schell. Earlier attempts by a German expedition in 1959 and an Austrian expedition in 1964 were unsuccessful.View Detail www.takpaktour.com/Mountaineering/diran-peak

According to Banglapedia, a Kasba is an administrative unit of the Sultani rulers (1342-1576). The administrative units, such as, Iqlim, Iqta, Erta, Zoar and Kasba have been mentioned in the contemporary texts.
So far 37 Kasbas could be traced in the region of Bangladesh, most of which had been within or near about the present district towns. The distance of one Kasba from another varied. It is noticed that official titles were associated with some of the kasbas eg, Kazir Kasba, Kotowaler Kasba, Town Kasba, Nagar Kasba etc. Considering the location, distance of one from another, communication system with the central or Provincial Capital, attachment of official titles etc it may be understood that Kasbas were administrative units and were equivalent to districts. An administrative officer, a Quazi and a Kotwal were in charge of a Kasba.
While most of the Kasbas lost their former importance during the Mughal period, Munshiganj, or Bikrampur, as it was known earlier, flourished as an important district through a rich combination of education, economy, literary & cultural pursuits. Therefore, the Nagar Kasba of Munshiganj stood with its importance through the test of time. It is believed that during the British rule, especially during the later part of the 19th century, Nagar Kasba was rebuilt as a residential area of wealthy predominantly Hindu business people, who mostly traded through the river port of Mir Kadim.
After the Partition of India (1947), it is believed that most of the Hindu wealthy families migrated to Kolkata. Those who decided to stay back, to tend to their established businesses soon began to find it difficult. As sporadic communal riots continued, the exodus continued till the late 1950s. Families often left silently at night, leaving behind all their belongings. Those who still chose to stay, almost completely left for India during our Liberation War in 1971.
During these dire times, most of these full-furnished wealthy houses fell vacant and remained untended for a long time. Gradually, over time, these empty houses began to be taken over by influential locals. The descendents of these grabbers now own these properties, and live in the dilapidated buildings. It therefore is not surprising that a house that looks like it was purposely built for Hindu owners now adorns the names of Muslim people.
Even in its latest hay days in the later part of the 19th century, Nagar Kasba was a row of magnificent houses, mostly of two floors, though not too large, but built in British colonial styles. The intricate designs and motifs that remain on the walls and pillars are testament to the wealth and taste of the owners. Unfortunately, almost all are now in ruins, where some have even been demolished by present day owners.

We went to the Broken bridge part of the Besant nagar beach. It is a nice place. Always go in a group.
11110 Lucknow-Jhansi Intercity hurtles towards its destination after a small unscheduled halt at Manak Nagar.
In The Chalt and Chaprot Valley.
Chalt sits in a bowl at the mouths of two large valley systems, the only part of Nagar north of the Hunza river. Chaprot Valley is probably the most beautiful 'nala' (stream, river or valley) close to the Karakoram Highway in the Northern Areas.
Safdar Ali, mir (ruler) of Hunza at the time of the British invasion, said Chalt and Chaprot were 'more precious to us than the strings of our wives' pyjamas'!
