Every one who got involved promptly in relief work deserves praise for the speed and agility which resulted in rescuing many Earthquake victims .The Indian government also deserves praise for extending quick relief to Nepal, following an equally challenging mission in Yemen, India has shown the world that it is a force to reckon with whether it is a case of war or disaster. The tragedy in Nepal once again raises the issue of the state of disaster preparedness in South Asia. Events across the last decade show that SE Asia is becoming vulnerable to natural disasters. In crises, it is very difficult for one government and country alone to put together its resources. Thus, SAARC and ASEAN shall join response team and should be standby at all times. Some of the headlines in the electronic and print media are odd. I came across one example — “Kannadigas in quake-hit Nepal moved to safety” — that was prominent and found it shocking that in such a tragic time, we find it comforti...

ڈاکٹر محمد منظور عالم وزیر اعظم نریندرمودی حکومت کا جلد ہی ایک سال پور امکمل ہورہا ہے۔ اس عرصہ میں وہ جہاں ملک کے اندر اپنی طرز حکمرانی کے سبب موضوع بحث رہے وہاں اپنے غیر ملکی دوروں سے یہ خوشخبری بھی سنائی کہ بڑے پیمانے پر ملک میں سرمایہ کاری ہوگی جس کی وجہ سے ملک تیز رفتاری سے خوشحالی کی جانب بڑھے گا۔ 11مہینے کی دور حکمرانی میں انھوں نے 15ملکوں کا دورہ کیا۔ ان کے دورے کے فوائد ملنے شروع ہوئے یاصرف زبانی خرچ ہے، پرکوئی تبصرہ کرنا جلد بازی ہوگی البتہ حالیہ دنوں میں جس طرح تین ملکوں فرانس، جرمنی اور کناڈا کا دورہ کیاا ور اس کو لیکر جو دعوی کیے جارہے ہیں اس پر سماجی اور اقتصادی اداروں کی جانب سے ملے جلے رد عمل کا اظہار کیا جارہا ہے۔ اس لیے یہ سوال بہت اہم ہے کہ ان تین ملکوں کے دورہ سے ملک کو کیا ملا؟ اور اس کے اثرات ملک کی اقتصادیات پر کیااور کتنے مرتب ہوئے؟ کیونکہ جس طرح وہاں انھوں نے پیش رو کانگریس پارٹی کا نام لیے بغیر کہا کہ لوگ گندگی کرکے چلے جاتے ہیں، ہم صفائی کرنے آئے ہیں۔ اس کو لیکر یہ عام تاثر پایا جارہا ہے کہ اس طرح کے بیانات سے بیرونی ملکوں میں ہندستان کی ساکھ کو مجروح ...

“After performing Salat Al Maghrib, she put her make-up, wore her beautiful white dress preparing herself for her wedding party, Then she heard the Adhan of ‘Ishaa and she realized that she broke her Wudu she told her mother : “mother, I have to go to make wudu and pray ‘Ishaa” Her mother was shocked : “Are you crazy?!! Guests are waiting for you, to see you! what about your make -up? It will be all washed away by water!!” then she added: ” I am your mother and I order you not to perform salah now! wallahi if you make wudu now, I will be angry at you” Her daughter replied :”wallahi I won’t go out from here till I perform my salah! Mother you must know that “There is no obedience to any creature in disobedience to the Creator.”!! Her mother said:”what would our guests say about you when you’ll show up in your wedding party without make-up?! You won’t be beautiful in their eyes! and They will make fun of you!” The daughter asked with a smile :”Are you worried because I won’t be beautifu...

The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken a suo motu cognizance of a gory ‘encounter’ by Telangana police – but their families and rights activists have refused to call it so and alleged deliberate killing- in which five under trial terror accused were killed. It has issued notices to chief secretary and DGP of the state. “Commission has taken suo muto cognizance of media reports that Telengana police have shot dead five under trials alleged to be militants while they were being brought by them to Hyderabad in connection with a court case on April 7, 2015," NHRC said in a statement from its camp at Thiruvananthapuram. Five under trials, accused in terror cases, namely Mohammed Vikaruddin, Amjed Ali, Mohammed Haneef, Riyaz Khan and Izhar Khan on Tuesday morning were shot dead while they were being shifted from Warangal prison to Hyderabad Criminal court for a trial. Police claimed to have opened fire when the accused tried to snatch a weapon from a policeman...

April 14, 2015 will kick off celebrations of Babasaheb Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar’s 125th birth anniversary. Though Dr. Ambedkar’s stature and image is growing larger with time, his prominence as India’s foremost advocate of Dalit empowerment often does not do much justice to several sterling aspects of the man’s multi-faceted personality. Dr. Ambedkar was an economist par excellence and his work in this field had laid the foundation for the country’s central bank, Reserve Bank of India. He planned India’s first river valley project to generate power and irrigation facilities. As the chairman of the drafting committee of the Indian Constitution he was its chief architect. He had also drafter the far-reaching Hindu code bill to liberate vast majority of women and finally resigned from union cabinet when this bill was not passed by the Parliament. However, Dr. Ambedkar’s greatest and least known contribution was to be able to stretch the idea of the nation-state to include India’s v...

Are we living in a civilised country ruled by law? The massacre shocks the conscience of the country. As an act of deliberate savagery and malignant insanity, it will not be enough if the proximate killers are punished. The higher-ups in the police and the government will have to find credible answers. They should also explain why it is that while tonnes of minerals and other state resources are illegally mined and smuggled out under political and state patronage, petty woodcutters must get executed in inhumanly manner. Even though there can be no dispute that the woodcutters were doing something illegal, the claim that the special force resorted to such an extreme step as they were attacked with stones and sickles lacks credibility. It is also not clear why the taskforce did not take aim at the woodcutters below the knee. Instead of swooping down on the poor woodcutters, the taskforce should have identified the kingpins who are sure to have political connections and taken a...

Some of them are still used, at least informally, in the U.S.This size information is based on Matt Roberts and Don Etherington, Bookbinding and the conservation of books: a dictionary of descriptive terminology.

Dr Mohammad Manzoor Alam The recent remark of the Prime Minister at the conference of chief justices and chief ministers of Indian states that “five star activists” are driving the judiciary was a clear attack on civil society, putting a question mark on the legitimacy of activism for social causes. To top it all, the language used was highly offensive which, sadly, has become a hallmark of the PM’s style. The use of scornful language for some of the most noble and altruistic people has been widely looked at with disapproval. Understandably, Prashant Bhushan, eminent lawyer and activist, has called the language “unacceptable.” Dr Mohammad Manzoor Alam Bhushan, whose NGO Centre for Public Interest Litigation, brought to the notice of the Supreme Court 2G scam, coal scam and Radia tapes, without charging any fees, said the Modi government got a lead about Rs. 1 lakh crore in black money stashed abroad through the scam they unearthed. Bhushan said (about Mo...

The fact that tobacco lobbyists still need evidence to prove that tobacco consumption has deleterious health effects seems strange especially when much of the advanced world has reached a stage where banning smoking there will be almost complete.The argument that pictorial warnings would eventually lead to discouraging tobacco use which would then have an adverse impact on the livelihood of people involved in the tobacco industry seems to be just an exercise in fooling the people. It all boils down to the importance of revenue. Tobacco consumption is hazardous and there are numerous studies to prove this. Policy makers have to bite the bullet and make statutory warnings clear. Steps such as increasing pictorial warnings and sales tax must be thought of to discourage people from smoking. The importance of the family as a social unit is still intact in India. Therefore, there must be emotional appeals using the media to make people think twice before consuming tobacco product...

Modi won the Lok Sabha Elrctions on the name of all round Changes.No tangible changes evenafter 10 Months,where as there are changes for MUSLIMS. Life has been made more difficult and tedious for them. Culprits involved in killing of Muslims are being released with Clean Chits, AMIT SHAH! Tyrant officers like VANJARA, known for his FAKE ENCOUNTERS ( Particularly ISHRAT JAHAN ) are not only coming out of prisons but honoured! During the period of UPA Muslim Prisoner ( QATEEL SIIDDIQUI) was killed in custody in Jail premises, but in Modi Govt Muslim Prisoners ( SHAREEFUDDIN FAREED KHAN ) are taken out from Jail to be killed after hours.

By Nandita Das Jashn-e-Rekhta, a two-day celebration of Urdu in Delhi, is what got me thinking more deeply about Urdu. Along with an overwhelmingly large audience of young people, I found myself at the venue from morning to night, listening to a stellar lineup of poets, writers, orators and performers. Having grown up in Delhi, I speak and understand much of Urdu and the rest I figure out because of the context and when I don't, I simply enjoy the sound of it. Recently a friend enlightened me that the analysis of the standard Urdu dictionary, the Farhang-e-Asfia, showed that 75 per cent of all the words in the dictionary were derived from Sanskrit and Prakrit. Additionally, all the base words of Urdu, its entire grammar and syntax came from Hindi. Similarly, modern standard Hindi emerged from Urdu through the replacement of its Persian and Arabic words with those derived from Sanskrit. All this basically means is that Urdu is of Hindi, just as Hindi is of Urdu. Ther...

Dr Mohammad Manzoor Alam* How do we judge the justice delivery system in India? Is it good, shoddy, or great? In fact, it is all the three at different times and levels. To be fair to it, its shoddiness does not always come from within it, but mostly from outside: the political culture, the police, the state itself. “If the PAC did not kill our men, then who did it?” Before coming to the crying shame part, let us mull over a rather comical point. After coming out of jail where he had languished for years on charge of killing innocent people in false encounters, Gujarat Police officer DG Vanzara declared: “Achche din aa gaye” (Good days are here), which was a take on a BJP electoral promise “Achche din aaen gay” (Good days are coming). One wonders whether with the achche din of criminally-oriented policemen, bure din (bad days) for law-abiding citizens have also come. The vicious criminality and partiality of elements in the Gujarat state, including the state judicia...
