📜 History of Islamabad
Islamabad Pakistan ka aik planned aur relatively naya shehar hai, lekin is ka tasawwur mulk ke mustaqbil ko madde-nazr rakh kar banaya gaya tha. Pakistan ke qaim hone ke baad Karachi mulk ka capital tha, lekin jald hi hukoomat ne mehsoos kiya ke Karachi ek commercial shehar hai aur mulk ke markazi hissay se door waqia hai. Is wajah se 1950s ke aakhir mein capital ko kisi central aur zyada munasib jagah par shift karne ka faisla kiya gaya.
1959 mein Federal Government ne faisla kiya ke naya capital Rawalpindi ke qareeb banaya jaye, kyun ke yeh area strategically secure, mausami tor par behtar aur mulk ke zyada qareeb markaz mein tha. Is project ke liye mashhoor Greek architect aur urban planner Constantinos Apostolou Doxiadis ko Islamabad ka master plan tayar karne ki zimmedari di gayi.
Doxiadis ne Islamabad ko sectors aur zones mein divide kar ke design kiya, jahan residential, commercial, diplomatic aur industrial areas alag alag hon. Is planning ka maqsad ek aisa shehar banana tha jo sirf administrative capital hi na ho, balkay rehne ke liye bhi ideal ho.
1961 mein Islamabad ki formal construction shuru hui. Pehle phase mein government buildings, ministries aur diplomatic enclave banaye gaye. Is dauran Rawalpindi ko temporary capital ke taur par use kiya gaya jab tak Islamabad fully functional nahi ho gaya. Dheere dheere foreign embassies, residential sectors aur public infrastructure develop hota gaya.
1967 ke baad Islamabad ne proper capital ke taur par kaam shuru kiya. 1970s aur 1980s mein shehar ki growth mein kaafi tezi aayi, aur naye sectors introduce kiye gaye. Faisal Mosque jaise iconic projects aur national institutions ne Islamabad ki pehchan ko mazid mazboot kiya.
21st century mein Islamabad ne ek modern aur international shehar ki shakal ikhtiyar kar li. IT sector, educational institutions, healthcare aur real estate development ne shehar ko rapidly grow karne wala capital bana diya. Aaj Islamabad na sirf Pakistan ka administrative aur political center hai, balkay ek aisa shehar hai jo modern planning, natural beauty aur high living standards ki misaal samjha jata hai.
