Gurpurab Greetings www.punjabadvanceonline.com Gurpurab Greetings Sri Guru Nanak Dev's 550th birth anniversary (Nov 23) 2 Punjab Advance August 2016 Editorial The Boy Who Cried Wolf is one of my favourite Aesop's Fables, I don’t know why but it appears to fit into the current Delhi smog tale. For the third year running Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal repeated his ‘stubble burning’ cries. His hat-trick of alarm calls remind me of the shepherd boy who cried wolf, with no wolf around. Initially the people came to his aid, but when he repeated the cries no one turned up and ultimately he fell vic - tim to his own follies. The Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh has been quick in ridi - culing the nonsensical claim of his Delhi counterpart asking him to stop in - dulging in political theatrics and to check the facts before shooting from the mouth. He has trashed as yet another attempt by the Delhi Chief Min - ister to divert public attention for his own government’s abysmal failure on all counts. As per data provided by private and government agencies stubble burn - ing accounts for a bare 4 per cent of the total smog enveloping the National Capital Region. More than 80 per cent of the deadly cocktail of soot, smoke, metals, nitratres, sulphates is the result of the local activities like vehicu - lar traffic, industrial pollution, construction activity, garbage burning etc. Vehicular pollution alone contributes 40 per cent of the total pollution level. According to the latest data released by the Ministry of Earth Sciences and the Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) crop burning, which lasts for about 15-20 days during this period, contributes just 4 per cent of the total pollution in Delhi-NCR on an average. The ball is now in the Delhi CM’s court. In another development the people’s Chief Minister of Punjab initially put off his Israel tour in the wake of the train tragedy near Amritsar on Dasehra. He visited the injured in hospitals and announced cash compensation and set up a high-powered probe committee. Under pressure from his Cabinet colleagues, the reluctant CM left the shores. But he is back with a package for farmers. Yes Israel has agreed to cooperate in recycling wastewater for irrigation purposes. The farming community could not have asked for more considering the fast depleting water table of the state.

    (RJELAL) Research Journal of English Language and Literature Vol.3.Issue 4.2015 A Peer Reviewed (Refereed) International Journal (Oct-Dec) http://www.rjelal.com RESEARCH ARTICLE EXPERIMENTS IN FORM AND CONTENT: APPROXIMATING INDIAN PROGRESSIVE WRITING IN CONTEMPORARY LITERARY DISCOURSE GHULAM MOHAMMAD KHAN Research Scholar Department of English and Foreign Languages Central University of Haryana ABSTRACT Given the unprecedented intellectual and critical activity in the field of literary and cultural studies, theorists, creative writers and public intellectuals have grown conscious of the arbitrariness and fluidity of the ideological and epistemological structures at work in the theory industry. The form as well content of modern literary texts come under the influence of these structures or thought processes in one way or the other. In these literary and theoretical complexities, there is a possibility of exploring and re-reading the great oeuvre of Progressive Writings. This paper will study, how certain literary and ideological experiments employed by various Progressive writers are still as relevant as they were in late 1930’s and early 1940’s, when the movement was at its peak. Progressive writers’ departure from the ponderous romantic and imaginative ebullience and formal and lexical intricacies of the nineteenth and early twentieth century poets and fiction writers and embracing a new pattern of both form and content are still very relevant and authentic issues in the field of literary studies. Though this writers’ association disintegrated and finally demised after the Independence, the writers of this association had already invested an unparallel effort to turn literature into a vehicle of social realism.

I This is not that long awaited dawn … —Faiz Ahmad Faiz T surrounding the Partition of India on August –, created at least ten million refugees, and resulted in at least one million deaths. This is, perhaps, as much as we can quantify the tragedy. The bounds of the property loss, even if they were known, could not encompass the devastation. The number of persons beaten, maimed, tortured, raped, abducted, exposed to disease and exhaustion, and other- wise physically brutalized remains measureless. The emotional pain of severance from home, family and friendships is by its nature immeasur- able. Fifty years have passed and the Partition remains unrequited in the historical experience of the Subcontinent. This is, in one sense, as it should be, for the truth remains that the Partition unleashed barbarism so cruel, indeed so thorough in its cruelty, and complementary acts of compassion so magnificent—in short a com- • T A U S plex of impulses so pernicious, so heroic, so visceral, so human—that they cannot easily be assimilated into normal life. Neither can they be forgot- ten. And so, ingloriously, the experience of the Partition has been perhaps most clearly assimilated in the perpetuation of communal hostility within both India and Pakistan, for which it serves as the defining moment.

  • Twentieth-Century Urdu Literature
    Published in Handbook of Twentieth-Century Literatures of India, ed. by Nalini Natarajan, Greenwood Press, Westport, CT, 1996. TWENTIETH-CENTURY URDU LITERATURE1 Omar Qureshi This introductory summary, of the course of Urdu literature in the twentieth century must continuously refer back to the nineteenth. This becomes necessary because, depending on one’s point of view, it was Urdu’s destiny or misfortune to gradually become identified as the lingua franca of the Muslims of India in the latter half of the last century. Consequently, the still unresolved dilemmas of the politics of Muslim identity in South Asia are difficult to separate from their expression in and through the development of Urdu. For our purposes then, the most significant consequence of the failed rebellion of 1857 was the gradual emergence of group identity among the recently politically dispossessed and culturally disoriented Muslim elite of North India. This effort to define Indian Muslim nationhood in the new colonial environment placed issues of past, present and future identity at the center of elite Muslim concerns. Not only were these concerns expressed largely in Urdu, but the literary legacy of Urdu formed the terrain through and on which some of the more significant debates were conducted. The Muslim leadership that emerged after 1857 looked to this pre-colonial literary legacy as an authentic, but highly problematic repository of the Indian Muslim identity; and the Urdu language itself as the most effective medium for the renewal and reform of the Muslims of British India. As Muslim identity politics gathered strength in colonial India, and Urdu was turned into the print language of the emerging nation, discussions of an apparently purely literary nature became a veritable mirror of ideological and sociopolitical change among India’s Muslims.

    Partition Stories: Epic Fragments and Revenge Tragedies (A Review Article) An Epic Unwritten: The Penguin Book of Partition Stories From Urdu. Edited and translated by M U M. New Delhi: Penguin Books, . pp. Rs. U, the one historical event of the century that relent- lessly haunts the Subcontinent’s psyche is the horror wrought by Parti- tion, although the simple geopolitical fact itself has found broader accep- tance, perhaps even closure. However, the very real communal polariza- tion and mounting economic and political crises throughout India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh have transformed the event into a fecund source of nostalgia, not to mention political apologetics. Although it is possible the recent surge of interest in Partition is partly ideological, works like An Epic Unwritten: The Penguin Book of Partition Stories, edited and translated by Muhammad Umar Memon; Orphans of the Storm: Stories on the Partition of India, edited by Saros Cowasjee and K.S. Duggal; the two volume India Partitioned, edited by Mushirul Hasan; and the three volume Stories About the Partition of India, edited by Alok Bhalla have certainly enabled contemporary readers to remember, if not re-examine their knowledge of Partition. An Epic Unwritten, a collection of short fiction drawn exclusively from Urdu, evenly represented by Indian and Pakistani writers belonging to the old guard as well as the midnight’s-children-generation, offers a vision of Partition largely bracketed from the obvious rhetoric of history, the legacy of imperialism, and de-colonization. The stories seem to privi- lege the personalized, domestic experience of Partition, not unlike the • T A U S modernist aesthetic of much of our regional language literatures.
