دورہ فرانس
بھٹو صاحب فرانس کے دورے پر گئے تو صد ر اسکارڈ اسٹینگ نے پیرس کے مضافات میں اپنے فارم ہائوس پر ان کے اعزاز میں ایک پرائیویٹ عشائیہ کا انتظام کیا جس میں دونوں سر براہوںکے خاندانوں سمیت چند دوسرے قریبی احباب شریک تھے ۔یہ ورکنگ ڈنر کے بجاء ایک فیملی گیٹ ٹو گیدر جس کا مقصد تفریخ اور خاندانوں کے درمیان روابط پیدا کرنا تھا ۔کھانے کے بعد اسٹینگ اور بھٹو فارم ہائوس پر چہل قدمی کے لیے نکلے تو راستے میں جگہ جگہ بتیاں روشن دیکھ کر بھٹو صاحب نے کہا’’جناب صدر آپ کے ملک میں بجلی وافر مقدار میں پیدا ہو تی ہے ‘‘مضافات میں بھی روشنی ہے ۔اسٹینگ نے کہا ’’ہم پن بجلی کے ساتھ ساتھ ایٹمی بجلی بھی پیدا کر رہے ہیں ۔بجلی وافرہے لیکن ابھی تک ان مضافات میں بجلی نہیں پہنچا سکے ۔یہاں ایک جنریٹر کی مدد سے بجلی پیدا کی جاتی ہے ۔ان دنوں جنریٹر عام نہیں تھے ۔بھٹو صاحب نے دیکھنے کا اشتیاق ظہار کیا ۔صدر انہیں لے کر جنریٹر روم میں چلے گئے جو اتفاق سے قریب ہی بنا ہوا تھا ۔بھٹو صاحب نے جنریٹر کو بڑی دلچسپی سے دیکھا نیز اس کی کارگردی اور انجن کے بارے میں سوالات پوچھے جو آپریٹر نے انہیں بریف کیا ۔اس مشین میں بھٹو صاحب کی دلچسپی کو دیکھتے ہوئے اسٹینگ نے کہا ’’جناب ایسا ہی ایک جنریٹر آپ کے ساتھ پاکستان جائے گا جو میری فیملی کی طرف سے آپ کی فیملی کے لیے ایک چھوٹا سا تحفہ ہے ۔
بھٹو مسکرائے اور گرمجوشی سے شکریہ ادا کیا اور دھیرے سے بولے ۔’’جناب صدر میں ایک غریب ملک کا وزیر اعظم ہوں ۔میرے ملک میں بجلی کی بہت کمی ہے ۔بجلی نہ ہو نے کی وجہ سے انڈسٹری نہ ہو نے...
Allah Almighty is the creator of the whole universe. He bestowed wisdom and intellect to humanbeings. He sent his prophets for their guidance. Prophets taught how to worship Almighty Allah by heart and serve humanity. After Prophets, it is the responsibility of religious scholars to guide people to the right way. Islam also explicitly encourages inward reform. Sub continent Indo-Pak has the privilege of being the gateway of Islam, as well as the benefit of great Islamists and brave people. The great scholars of Islam, Ulama, Hufaaz, Writers, Researchers, Intellectuals, Scientists and saints got birth on this pure land. These great personalities served their religion Islam with their self-determinations and eliminated the darkness of ignorance and eliminated the darkness of misguidance. Such great human lives and their educational, religious and literary activities have been documented, as the next generation could be aware of their great hostilities, writings and made their lives and their experiences as a model for themselves. Maulānā Ḥamadullah Ḥālajwī is one of them. He was a prominent pious Islamic scholar, researcher and a saint. He spent his whole life to follow the commands of Almighty Allah and the teachings of Holy Prophet (PBUH). He adapted his life according to the Sunnah. He used to do everything according to the Sunnah. He was a master of good personality and good character. His words were full of wisdom. During his meeting or statement, it seemed as if there was a sea of knowledge, whose ripples were visible in his sermons. He used to make great arrangements for payment of religious duties. He was very pious and devout. His life is an ideal life and his religious and academic services are unpredictable. Practicing the Sunnah had become his mark and identity. He urged others to follow the commands of Allah and His Messenger (PBUH). Sitting in the company of such pious saints is also considered in worship. The bigger his personality, the more humble and controversial he was. This is actually the identity of a mediator and scholar. He was oceans of knowledge and action. The vacuum created by his death takes a long time to fill. Such individuals survive for centuries.
This thesis analyzes the impact of climate change on health in two cities of Pakistan; i. e. Lahore and Rawalpindi. Lahore is relatively hotter and Rawalpindi is relatively colder. The data have been collected from selected hospitals of both cities. The study focuses on the nexus between GHG emission; rising temperature and health. We investigate what is the contribution of transport sector in GHG emissions and resultantly how the emissions (one of the indicators of temperature change) have caused temperature to rise and then estimate the relationship between temperature and health. In this study the relationship between emissions from the transport sector and Pakistan‟s temperature has been tested empirically. Based on data of carbon dioxide from road transport sector, minimum and maximum emissions of carbon dioxide emissions from road transport sector and their damages in financial terms have been forecasted up till 2030. The data of cardiovascular diseases (indicator of state of health) from different hospitals of Lahore and Rawalpindi have been collected to assess the relationship between health and temperature. The study has found inverse relationship between cardiovascular diseases and temperature for Lahore whereas this relationship has been found to be positive for Rawalpindi. This study also calculated the direct and indirect cost of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The findings of this study show that direct cost of CVD is much larger then indirect cost. The study also uses the Contingent Valuation method to calculate the willingness to pay for a better traffic system and enhanced health program specifically for cardiovascular diseases in Lahore. The findings indicate that the people of Lahore are more conscious about their health as they are ready to pay more for improved health program as compared to better traffic system.
