The total population of Hazara Division is 5.3
Million, which is behind Peshawar and Malakand Division of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
Province, both having populations exceeding 7.2 Million. The Area, Population
and level of natural resources are much lower than many other division of the Country,
let alone provinces, therefore, creation of Soba Hazara, which is the demand of
Hindko Speaking of the country, not viable.
As per Census 2017, the total Hindko speaking
people of Pakistan stands at 4.7 Million, which includes Hindko speakers not
only from KP but also Kashmir, Punjab and the rest of the country, while the
census data reveals that there are 3.5 Million Hindko speakers in KP. Therefore
a reshuffle is suggested i.e. creation/reshuffling of a divisions in the northern KP by reducing the
size of Malakand and Hazara Divisions and creation of Abbasin Division
