Anemia is problem in which level of haemoglobin decreases or numbers of Red Blood Cells reduce. There are many factors which are involved in causing Anemia in women like nutritional deficiency, gastrointestinal bleeding (diarrhea). Multiple pregnancies or pregnancies having less than two years time period between them also result in causing anemia or reducing iron stores in blood. There are other causes too like chronic diseases such as cancers, blood loss problems like haemorrhoids, postpartum haemorrhage etc. The current research was planned to find out the prevalence of anemia in Pregnant Women (PW) of District Lahore and to know how it is related to iron rich food and socioeconomic status of chosen patients. For this blood samples of 70 pregnant women of age group (25-40) years were collected from four different hospitals of District Lahore, during different trimesters of pregnancy. The collected blood samples were taken and stored in already filled with EDTA tubes. All samples were then analyzed by using CBC haematology auto-analyser. It is concluded from the current study that anemia was highly prevalent in District Lahore. It also indicated that the age of selected PW showed significant effect on severity of anemia because of nutritional deficiency with an increase in age. Income plays a central role in anemic women. Mostly anemic women were belonging to middle class which affected the nutritional status of PW and they didn?t take iron and other nutrients containing diets. Trimester of pregnancy had impact on anemia because due to growth of fetus body needs Iron folate, vitamins and other nutrients. Majority of anemic women were in their 2 trimester because they didn?t get proper diet. Numbers of pregnancies were also significant factors in PW. It can be due to the reason that with short birth spacing and increase no of pregnancies and abortions the Hb and serum ferritin level decreases and leads to anemia. This study helped to estimate the prevalence and causes of anemia in expectant females.

پہنچ نہ پائے گا منزل پہ کارواں میرا

پہنچ نہ پائے گا منزل پہ کارواں میرا
کہ راہ بر جو ہے سردارِ رہزناں میرا

حیات و موت میں اک قدرِ مشترک ہے یہ
کہ ذکر ہوتا ہے بس ان کے درمیاں میرا

اگرچہ تیز سہی آندھیاں انائوں کی
بچا ہوا ہے ابھی تک تو آشیاں میرا

میں اُس کے ظلم اسی خوف سے ہی سہتا ہوں
کہ ہو نہ جائے کہیں یار بدگماں میرا

اُٹھا نہ پائیں گے یہ بوجھ بے وفائی کا
نحیف جسم مرا ، قلبِ ناتواں میرا

رہی ہیں ٹوٹ جو مجھ پر قیامتیں پیہم
مرے خدا کو ہے مطلوب امتحاں میرا

اجاڑ دوں گا اُسے جو اسے اُجاڑے گا
عزیز جان سے مجھ کو ہے گلستاں میرا

کسی کے درد سے تائبؔ قرار ہستی میں
کسی کی یاد سے بستا ہے یہ جہاں میرا

اسلام اور دوسرے مذاہب میں خدا کے تصور کا تحقیقی و تقابلی جائزہ

The word “God” and its derivatives apparently seen common knowledge.

Therefore, it may safely be said that this vital concept has evolved and later undergoing through various transformation culminated on the concept of “Tawheed”. This article attempts to present an overview of the concept of God with reference to different religions as this concept of God has remained a focus of man’s activities.    

Impact of Employee Selection and Employee Development on Organizational Performance: A Study of Government and Private Sector Organizations

This study is conducted to evaluate the affects of employee selection and employee development on organizational performance. Both employee selection and employee development are important issues for organizations. These two variables have the potential to boost up the organizational performance. The Study shows that selection of right person is more critical than development of employee. A little mistake at the time of selection of employee will badly affect the organizational performance. Selections tools used in most of the organizations are out dated. Government organizations do not pay much attention on the development of employees. The study is based on data collected through questionnaire survey from three government and three private organizations located in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. The results indicate that both these variables are positively correlated with organizational performance in government and private organizations but there intensities vary across organization. In government organizations employee selection is positively and significantly correlated with organizational performance, whereas employee development is weakly correlated but not statistically significant. In private organizations both employee selection and employee development are positively and significantly correlated to organizational performance. In government organizations, organizational performance is only 20.7% explained by these two variables while in private organizations it is 56.6%, so this difference clearly depicts that employee selection and employee development are main constituents of organizational performance.
