  • Censorship in Pakistani Urdu Textbooks
    Censorship in Pakistani Urdu Textbooks S and criticism has always been an active force in Pakistani society. Journalists and creative writers have had to struggle hard to find their way around or across many laws threatening to punish any deviation from the official line on most vital issues. The authorities’ initiative to impose censorship through legislative means dates back to the Public Safety Act Ordinance imposed in October , and later, in , ratified by the first Constituent Assembly of Pakistan as the Safety Act. Apart from numberless political workers, newspapers, and periodicals, the leading literary journals too fell victim to this oppressive piece of legislation which was only the first in a long series of such laws. In fact, Sav®r≥ (Lahore) has the dubious honor of being the first periodical of any kind to be banned, in , under this very Public Safety Act Ordinance. This legal device was also invoked to suspend two other Lahore-based literary periodicals—Nuq∑sh and Adab-e Laπµf—for six months and to incarcerate the editor of Sav®r≥, Zaheer Kashmiri, in without even a trial.1 The infamous Safety Act had well-known literary people on both sides. On the one hand, literary critics such as Mu√ammad ƒasan ‘Askarµ2 found the law perfectly justifiable—indeed, they even praised it. On the other hand, there were writers and editors who were prosecuted under 1See Zamir Niazi, The Press in Chains (Karachi: Karachi Press Club, ), pp. and . 2For details, see Mu√ammad ƒasan ‘Askarµ, Takhlµqµ ‘Amal aur Usl∑b, collected by Mu√ammad Suh®l ‘Umar (Karachi: Nafµs Academy, ) , pp.

    www.TLHjournal.com Literary Herald ISSN: 2454-3365 An International Refereed/Peer-reviewed English e-Journal Impact Factor: 6.292 (SJIF) Intersection of Poetry and Politics: A Comparative Study Between the Life and Poetry of Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Pablo Neruda Suhail Mohammed Student, MA (English) Final Year Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh. Abstract Faiz Ahmed Faiz (1911-1984) was a famous revolutionary Pakistani poet who wrote chiefly in Urdu and Punjabi. He is known all over the world for his romantic as well as hard hitting poems and nazms. His “poetry with purpose” is sung and read even today to shatter the chains of oppression and hegemony. Pablo Neruda (1904-1973), on the other hand was a well-known Chilean poet and writer. Neruda wrote on a variety of subjects since his tender age and like Faiz, his poems are too tools of intellectual resistance. His poems have too transcended geographical boundaries in equal pace like that of Faiz. Both Faiz and Neruda were friends and had a good rapport. Their poems have been praised not only in their homelands but across territories and won global acceptance. The paper attempts to bring out the commonality between the life and poetry of Faiz and Neruda. The paper also attempts to analyse how their poems were anti- colonialist and anti-fascism. Keywords: revolutionary, oppression, hegemony, anti-colonialist, intellectual resistance Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Pablo Neruda were contemporary poets and friends whose poems have ever been tools of intellectual resistance. Their works show major similarities with both being anti-colonialist and anti-imperialist and they both denounced oppressions not only in their homelands but all across the globe in any form.

The Left Radical of Afghanistan [Chap-e Radikal-e Afghanistan]: Finding Trots... 1 The Left Radical of Afghanistan [ Chap-e Radikal-e Afghanistan]: Finding Trotsky after Stalin and Mao? Darren Atkinson Introduction: why examine the Left Radical of Afghanistan? 1 For many analysts of Afghanistan, the importance of leftist political ideology came to an end with the reformulation of the People’s Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) [Hezb- e Demokratic-e Khalq-e Afghanistan], the ostensibly communist party of government, as the Homeland Party of Afghanistan [Hezb-e-Watan-e Afghanistan] in 1987.1 This event, along with removal of Soviet troops in 1989, the ouster of President Najibullah’s in 1992, and his eventual execution in 1996, has meant that Afghanistan’s political development has tended to be analysed in relation to the success and failures of the Mujahedeen, the rise, fall and rise of the Taleban and the implications of US and NATO intervention and occupation.

The seven parties of the Islamic Union ofM ujahidin of Afghanistan who had convened the shura claimed that. because of their links to the mujahidin fighting inside Afghanistan. the cabinet they named was an Minterim government" rather than a Mgovernment-in ­ exile. ~ but they soon confronted the typical problems of the latter: how to obtain foreign recognition, how to depose the sitting government they did not recognize, and how to replace the existing opposition mechanisms inside and outside the country.
