Kuragh is a village located in Chitral district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. It falls in Mastuj tehsil.[1] [2]
The narrow passageways in the mountains near Kuragh witnessed battles between local warriors under Sher Afzal Khan and British troops in late 19th century.[3]
Kuragh is situated on Kunar River which is also known as Mastuj River or Chitral River.[4] The river here is a narrow gorge.[5] The village is located at the confluence of Mastuj and Mulkhow valleys.[6]
There are about 250 households in Kuragh belonging to Sunni and Ismaili communities. Farming is a key sector of economy here. The other important industry is tourism.[7]
Kuragh has government and Aga Khan schools.[8] [9] The village has a shrine of Qalandar Shah, a saint.[10] Kuragh also has a Chitral Scouts post. Chitral-Shandur Road project (a 153-km China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project) was inaugurated by the then prime minister Imran Khan in 2021 to boost trade and tourism, with Kuragh as one of the villages on the way.[11] However, the project was reportedly shelved in 2023 leading to agitation.[12]
