consisting ofan alluvial

from the Attock District ofthe| |||||||Punjab, Southwest
Pakistan to Topi-| |||||||Swabi. It is bounded
on the north
and| |||||||west by the Indus River, and is about 19| |||||||miles (31km) long (from east to west)| |||||||and 9 miles (14km) broad. There are 87| |||||||villages
in this relatively
small but| |||||||densely populated
(350,000or 2,000| |||||||habitants
per sq. mile) and the most| |||||||disadvantaged

in the villages ofChach| |||||||cannot afford to pay school fee or| |||||||purchase

and are depriving| |||||||their children ofbasic education. There| |||||||isat least one primary
