who am i

Dirty South, can y'all really feel me
S S North feel me
VM feel me
Political science DPT feels me
Economics DPT knows me
All the AMUSU most think about me who am i
Nothing means more to me then what we share
No one in this world can ever compare
You have always known just what to say
What could you say,
if your mind ever got pipe?
or had a life you couldn't escape?
Why should I dream of days gone by?
Why should I wait and wonder?
Sweet winter days have come and gone,
The leaves are falling yonder.
Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives,
Live regist'red upon our brazen S S S life,
And then grace us in the disgrace of LIS research
When, spite of cormorant devouring Time
I am disgrace politician awarded from SS Hall south.
What days and what sweet years! Ah me!
Our life were life indeed, with thee
So pass'd in quiet bliss,
But now the pleasant dream was gone,
No hope, no wish remain'd, not one,
They stirr'd him now no more,
New objects did new pleasure give,
And once again he wish'd to live
As lawless as before.

حمد باری تعالی

یا رحیمُ یا کریمُ یا غفور
ایک اک ذرے میں ہے تیرا ہی نور
تو نے ہی یہ سب جہاں پیداکئے
آسمان و کہکشا پیدا کئے
تو نے ہی پیدا کئے ہیں رنگ بو
کن کہا اور جسم و جاںپیداکئے
یا رحیمُ یا کریمُ یا غفور
ایک اک ذرے میں ہے تیرا ہی نور
کر رہی ہے ذکر ترا ہر زباں
تری عظمت ہے زمانوں پر عیاں
تری قدرت کے تلے ہے کائنات
تو جلال و کبریائی کا بیاں!!!

نعت رسول اکرم صلی الله علیه و آله وسلم

نعت رسول اکرم صلی الله علیه و آله وسلم
اپنی اُمت کو عزابو سے بچانے والے
بحِرظلماط میں توحید کو لانے والے
جاکر معراج په اے بزم سجانے والے
اے غلامو کوشهنشاه بنانے والے
مر آ قا مرا ملجا مرا مطلوب ہے تو
مرا مولا مرا ماوی مرا محبوب ہے تو
ایک آقا بهی جهاں میں نهیں تیرے جیسا
ساری دنیا ہے فقط ذات تری کا صدقه

Indian cricket

Abysmal performance of Indian cricket team due to the selectors, national selectors say “this is not the right time to talk: when comes right time? They had given chance to M Vija on the replacement, because he plays for the BCCI: Chief team. But the perfect demand was replacement of Uttapa in the same ways the not pickup the Manish Pandey, they performed superbly. So this loses not because of IPL: but wrong selection of player.

Price cost “role of monopoly”

(a) What did Rahul Gandhi speak on skyrocketing prices? My friends in bureaucracy share that one of the IAS officer working in the Dept. of Food and Civil Supplies (the minister is Sharad Pawar), confidentially shared with me that if only 25% of the wheat stock is released in the market, the prices of wheat will come down by 50%, and such recommendation has been submitted to the minister, who is deliberately not looking into the file for the last 8 months or so. If not released, greater quantum of wheat will any way be destroyed by rodents, insects and ....
While the teeming millions of the Indian people are helplessly crying against and suffering from the price-rise.
The govt is talking of reducing expenses on luxuries, whereas, certain functionaries of the universities are spending recklessly on luxuries, violating many rules. (Not to say of the huge expenses on the billboards, hoardings etc. to welcome Mr Rahul Gandhi).
(b) What did Rahul Gandhi speak on the gross irregularities and mismanagement (financial and otherwise) in the Universities? The Higher education is running under acute crisis, many examples of rampant corruption (with clinching evidences) are coming up even in various Central universities. Is he blissfully ignorant of all these? If yes, then how can he provide us with dependable leadership? If no, then won't it be pathetic?
(c) Mr Rahul Gandhi was away from the Lok Sabha debate on Liberahan's Ayodhya Report. While organizational consolidation and vote mobilization is a priority, should not he realise that participating in the Lok Sabha debate is no less important responsibility of this man? The Congress can hardly escape its culpability in the whole episode (6 Dec' 1992), even though, at this particular moment, this political party appears to be the lesser evil, in terms of our own political pragmatism.
(d) Another thing that worried me a lot is the fact that too many professors of AMU were dying to shake hands with Mr Gandhi, without raising such questions. Academicians have got greater responsibility of putting uncomfortable questions before the powers-that- be. They have to train their students to ask such questions. Such a desperate attempt at glorifying a lesser mortal with outrageous sycophancy of the teachers was, to me, too disgusting.
(e) If the nationally subsidized personnel (students and employees) of the higher education can't raise the questions of human existence (price rise, education, health care, social justice, protection and empowerment of minorities etc.), then the things are undoubtedly very bad.

Ai khaN-numa kharab na ehsaaN Uthaaiye (Ghalib)

May I hope, the crisis-ridden (moral, intellectual and ....) AMU teachers are going to do their soul searching? The nation is looking towards them with hope (and anxiety as well).
