viratnagar-no idea! Evil or Very Mad

yes..mining activities are more imp because pakistan does have some deposits of coal,iron and copper.It has doesn't have the neccesary geographical req,capital,market or enough working force to set up mining industries.
The rivers in Nepal flow from the NORTH-EAST to SOUTH-WEST direction because of the slope of the HImalayas.
two mountain ranges- mahabharat lekh and the himalayas.
