==Education==<br />
<br />
There are numerous schools, including a Government Girls High School<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.schoolinglog.com/school/Government-Girls-High-School-AWAN-PATTI-Muzaffarabad_4560.html|title=Government Girls High School AWAN PATTI, Muzaffarabad|first=|last=schoolinglog.com|publisher=}}</ref><br /> and a similar school for boys.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hamariweb.com/directories/govt.boys_high_school,_awan_patti_edu59535.aspx|title=Govt.Boys High School, Awan Patti, Muzaffarabad|publisher=}}</ref><br />
<br />
== Transport ==<br />
Awan Patti is well connected by road with the rest of [[Muzaffarabad]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thefrontierpost.pk/pr-to-launch-kashmir-railway-to-attract-tourists/ |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2016-01-04 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150904192329/http://www.thefrontierpost.pk/pr-to-launch-kashmir-railway-to-attract-tourists/ |archivedate=2015-09-04 }}</ref> It has no direct train link but the nearest railway station is [[Rawalpindi]] railway station. The proposed new [[railway]] line from [[Islamabad]] to [[Muzaffarabad]] will pass through Khatpura Awan Patti on its way to [[Srinagar]]. [[Garhi Dupatta]] station will be built in Khat Pura Awan Patti.{{cn|date=June 2020}}<br />
<br />
== Timber mafia ==<br />
Protected forest areas of Awan Patti are vulnerable to [[illegal logging]] by [[timber mafia]]s that have coopted or intimidated forestry officials, local politicians, businesses and citizens. Clear-cutting is sometimes covered-up by officials who report fictitious forest fires. Many studies indicate large losses of forest cover to indiscriminate logging by the mafias, with over a hundred canals in the environs of Awan Patti being illegally transferred by the forest department directly to them. Besides the [[environmental degradation]], public financial losses can be substantial.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://tribune.com.pk/story/784256/its-time-to-get-serious-about-climate-change-2/|title=It’s time to get serious about climate change – The Express Tribune|date=1 November 2014|publisher=}}</ref><br />
