From the last 3 decades, empirical evidence on employee empowerment and organizational justice perception and their influence on employee work related outcomes such as productive, performance, trust, motivation, organizational citizenship behavior, turnover intensions, organizational commitment prove its significance for management researchers and business organizations alike. However, limited research is devoted on whether or not justice perception can influence the relationship between employee empowerment and organizational commitment of the employees working in banking industry of Pakistan. Hence, this study was conducted to explore the relationship between employee empowerment and organizational justice and the moderating affect of organizational justice on this relationship. For the current study, data was collected from 300 employees serving in public and private banks of Pakistan. Simple linear regression analysis was employed to evaluate the relationship between empowerment and organizational commitment, further, hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used to test the moderating affect of all dimension of organizational justice i.e distributive justice, procedural justice and interactional justice on the relationship between employee empowerment and organizational commitment. The result of the regression analysis showed significant positive relationship between empowerment and organizational commitment, and highlights that management practice to empower their employees by providing authority and autonomy would results in enhanced level of employee commitment towards their respective bank. In addition, the evidence that has been concluded from the research findings, firstly indicates that when employees are empowered their commitment and tendency to remain loyal to the organization will also increase. Secondly, when employees of the banks perceives that their input is equal to their output, they are appropriately rewarded for their contribution and they are treated with respect and dignity, such perception results in beneficial behavior of employee towards the bank they worked for and ultimately enhance their level of commitment, absence of fair standards and organization policies would result in negative behavior of employee towards the respective bank. It is clear from the research that all the dimension of empowerment and organizational justice collectively has close association and influencing effect on employees working in banking industry. Besides, perception of distributive justice has been found an important justice dimension that has significant influencing effect when interaction of employee empowerment and organizational justice is under question due to its moderating effects on the positive relationship between employee empowerment and organizational commitment. Based on the research findings, this study has drawn some conclusions, firstly, when employees working in banks feels that their task is meaningful their level of commitment enhanced. Secondly, when employees have been give the right to take decisions in their daily routine work and they are equipped with necessary tools and techniques to perform their job effectively, their commitment escalate towards the bank they work for. Thirdly, when management of the banks engender fair and just procedures and create an environment where employees perceives that they are treated in just manner and the rewards they are getting are equal and balanced with their peers , their level of organizational commitment enhances

اردو آفرینش سے آغاز تک

اردو آفرینش سے آغاز تک

ڈاکٹر شاکر کنڈان

من نمی گویم اناالحق یا ر می گوید بگو : چوں نہ گو یم ،چوں مرا دلدار می گوید بگو

آنچہ نتواں گفت اندر صَومعَہ با زاہداں : بے تحاشہ بر سرِبازار می گوید بگو

بندۂ قدوس گنگوہی خدا را خود شناس : ایں ندا از غیب با اصرا ر می گوید بگو

                اوپردیئے گئے عنوان میں لفظ اردو اپنی دو حیثیتوں کا اظہار کر رہا ہے۔ ایک حیثیت لغوی اور دوسری اصطلاحی ہے۔ یہ لفظ کس زبان سے ہماری زبان میں وارد ہؤا اس میں کئی اختلافات موجود ہیں۔اکثریت اس بات پر متفق ہے کہ یہ لفظ ترکی زبان کا ہے لیکن اسی نظریے سے اختلاف کرتے ہوئے کہہ دیا گیا کہ ترکی میں یہ لفظ فارسی زبان سے آیا ہے۔ ویدیوں نے اسے وید کا لفظ بتایا۔سندھیوں نے اسے سندھ سے جوڑا۔کسی نے اسے اطالوی کا مؤرد قرار دیاتو کوئی دور کی کوڑی کوریا سے اٹھا لایا۔اس لفظ کو جب بطور اصطلاح استعمال کیا گیا تو زمان ومکاں کے ایسے ایسے نظریے سامنے آئے کہ عقل ہی نہیں بلکہ سوچ بھی دنگ رہ گئی لیکن ان دونوں حوالوں میں لشکر سے اس لفظ کے تعلق اور اس کا ایک زبان ہونے سے کہیں کوئی اختلاف سامنے نہیں آیا۔

                لشکر اور زبان دونوں کا وجود انسان سے ہے،گویا ‘‘اردو آفرینش سے آغاز تک’’کے موضوع کی تفسیرکے لئے تین سوالوں کے جواب دینا لازمی قرار پاتا ہے۔(۱) انسان (۲) زبان (۳) لشکر یعنی فوج

Pedagogical Innovation in Universities' Teaching

Pedagogical innovation is critical in the twenty-first century, and each university, classroom or educational institution must take this point as an ultimate goal of their educational system. Professors are responsible for preparing students to tackle new challenges, which is why innovative teaching methods have become important for keeping spirit up. This paper sheds light on pedagogical innovation at universities and give a review of its many forms, features, methodologies, and significance in the twenty-first century. It has been found that the types of pedagogical innovation are classified socially and technically. Moreover, the paper asserts that the innovative teaching methods do not consider all students at the same comprehension level according to their different abilities and skills.

Synthesis of Quaternary Ammonium Based New Analgesic, Anti- Inflammatory and Antipyretic Drugs

The carboxylic acid group (-COOH) present in most commercial NSAIDs is thought to be partly responsible for the gastric toxicity associated with the long-term administration of these compounds. The goal of the present research was to determine if new NSAID derivatives devoid of acidic moieties would retain the anti- inflammatory activity while exerting a lower degree of gastric toxicity compared to the corresponding parent NSAID. In this regard, we replaced the carboxylic acid group in aspirin, ibuprofen, flurbiprofen, and naproxen with a series of quaternary ammonium moieties, and the resulting water-soluble NSAID derivatives were tested for anti-inflammatory and ulcerogenic activity in vivo. Results of our investigation showed that replacement of quaternary ammonium moieties for the carboxylic acid group present in NSAIDs, yielded potent anti-inflammatory molecules without stomach ulceration when administered orally to rats. Among the new compounds, N- (2-hydroxyethyl)-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1-aminium chloride (a naproxen derivative) was the most potent anti-inflammatory agent (65.28% inhibition of inflammation at 6.4 mg/kg); however, unlike the reference compound naproxen (ulcer index = 108.7), N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-(6-methoxynaphthalen-2-yl)propan-1- aminium chloride did not produced gastric ulcers (Ulcer index = 0) when administered orally at equimolar doses (0.17mmol). These results suggest that the carboxylic acid group present in commercial 2-phenylpropionic acid NSAIDs is not an essential requirement for anti-inflammatory activity in vivo, and offers a new concept in drug design by using water-soluble ammonium moieties instead. Derivatives of salicylic acid were screened for analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activities, and acute toxicity. The result of this study indicated that these compounds possess dose dependent statistically significant analgesic, anti- inflammatory and antipyretic properties, compared to aspirin, without causing gastric ulceration and acute toxicity.
