Cyber treasury comes of age in MP

Bhopal, April 23, 2012
Thanks to constant efforts made by Madhya Pradesh government led by Chief Minister Mr. Shivraj Singh Chouhan, the people in Madhya Pradesh are growing IT savvy and are saving time and energy by increasingly using the online facilities. The ever swelling number of transactions through cyber treasury testifies this. People’s response was lukewarm when this facility was introduced in year 2007. That year, taxes amounting to a negligible Rs. 15 crore were deposited through cyber treasury and only 24 thousand 477 transactions made, reports SMS News & Features.

MP government’s commitment toward Dr. Ambedkar


By Muslim Saleem
Bhopal, April 16, 2012
Father of Indian Constitution Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar was born at Mhow near Indore in Madhya Pradesh. But this fact remained suppressed until BJP government took reins of the state. And it was during the eight-year rule of present Chief Minister Mr. Shivraj Singh Chouhan that a grand memorial in the name of Dr. Ambedkar was built at Mhow. Not only this, but the present State Government also played an important role in starting Ambedkar Mahakumbh over there. Chief Minister Mr Chouhan says his government wishes to construct a grand memorial at Delhi also at Dr. Ambedkar’s Nirvan Bhumi, but his hands are tied since the Union Government is not cooperating, reports SMS News & Features.

غزل - مسلم سلیم


بات اس دور کی نئی سی ہے 
دوستی جیسے دشمنی سی ہے
یوں تو محفل سجی سجی سی ہے
تم نہیں ہو تو کچھ کمی سی ہے

دیکھنا وہ کہیں نا ہو شیطاں
 شکل ویسے تو آدمی سی ہے

Tribute



Malikzada Manzoor Ahmad, one of the great poets and writers of Urdu has been waging a relentless war against the black sheep of Urdu literature. In the March-April edition of monthly Imkan, he has written an editorial entitled “Tash-heeri Adab” in which has exposed the people who are hogging limelight through unfair means in Urdu literary world as well as mushairas. Inspired by this editorial, I (Muslim Saleem) have written a qata as ode to Monthly Imkan. Both the qata and the editorial are being posted here for the benefit of Urdu lovers. It is matter of shame that mutashairs are reciting poetry composed by others in mushairas and stealing the limelight. Similarly, some magazines are publishing special issues on insignificant people by taking money from them. The editorial gives a severe blow to these malicious tendencies. (Muslim Saleem – April 5, 2012)
