The study analyzes weak wealth sustainability of Pakistan’s economy by sectors and overall from 1971 to 2012 through the impact of genuine savings and value added approaches. On average the overall economy is sustainable due to adequacy of national savings but not sustainable due to domestic savings. Genuine savings and value added both give the same estimates. Since savings are one of the most important components of the wealth accumulation, therefore the study also estimated saving function of the overall economy in order to identify the determinants of the function and thus the determinants of wealth accumulation. Vector error correction model has been specified for analysis of saving function. The study also analyzes sectoral sustainability of the economy. The study categorizes the economy into three sectors; agriculture, industry and services. Sectoral savings data are required to check sectoral sustainability of the economy through the impact of genuine savings. The data are not available and it is difficult to decompose the overall savings series into the sectoral savings. Therefore, the study uses value-added approach to genuine savings to check the sectoral sustainability. The approach isolates the sector and provides comparison of the net value added along with the consumption of the economy/sector. The economy/sectors is/are sustainable when net value-added is greater than or equal to the consumption. The study uses D for all negative indicators of the economy/sector. Therefore D is the sum of all natural resource depletion and costs of air and water pollutions. The study derived the D and consumption for economy/sector and subtracted D from the value added of economy/sector to get what the study called genuine value added of the economy/sector. The agriculture sector is not sustainable even in single period of the analysis; values of genuine savings are negative throughout the period of analysis and the values are increasing in negative Page 8 of 158 dimension with respect to time reflecting large depletion of the wealth. On average industrial sector of the economy is sustainable, genuine savings of the sector are negative from 1971 to 1972 and then 1977 and 1978 and positive in the rest of the years. Service sector of the economy is sustainable; the values of genuine savings of the sector are positive throughout the period of analysis. The role of agriculture sector in national wealth accumulation is negative. The service sector contribution in national wealth accumulation is positive. The role of industrial sector on average over the period of analysis is positive. The relationship between D and value added is positive in the long run but there is no short run causality running from value added to D in each sector.

پسماندگی کے مظاہر

پس ماندگی کے مظاہر

                ناطق کے پاس علم کا وسیع خزانہ موجود ہے۔ جب ان کا ناول’’نولکھی کوٹھی‘‘ میں نے پڑھا تو مجھے بھی اس بات سے اتفاق ہوا کہ واقعی ناطق ایک انوکھے شخص ہیں جو علم و حکمت کی دولت سے زرخیز ہیں۔ پنجاب کی مٹی سے ان کو لگاؤ نہیں بے حد لگاؤ ہے۔بہت سادگی سے کہیں دل کی بات کہہ دی تو کہیں انتہائی پیچیدگی سے معاملے کو پیش کیا۔ اپنی ہی ذات میں مست ایک انسان  جو کہ بس لکھتا ہے۔ کبھی لفظوں کو شاعری کا رنگ دیتا ہے تو جب کبھی جذبات سنبھالے نہ جائیں  اور لکھنے کے لیے شاعری سے زیادہ وسعت مانگیں تو انہیں نثر میں مانند گوہر سمو دیتے ہیں۔ تحریر میں جگہ جگہ جزئیات سے جو کام لیا گیا ہے۔ہر با ت کو کھل کر بیان کیاگیا، ہر معاملے اور واقعے کے پیچھے کے اسباب و حقیقت کو کھل کر بیان کرنا بھی کبھی ناممکن نظر آتا ہے۔مگر نو لکھی کوٹھی کو پڑھنے کے بعد یہ احساس ہوا کہ یہ بات بھی اب نا ممکن نہیں رہی۔ ناطق نے ناول میں تقسیم کے بعد کے نقصانات کو بھی بیان کیا ہے۔وہ تقسیم سے ناراض معلوم ہوتے ہیں۔جب تقسیم ہند کے واقعات کو پڑھتے ہیں تو ان کا مخصوص لب و لہجہ بھی محسوس کیا جا سکتا ہے،مولویوں پر نشتر چلاتے نظر آتے ہیں جو کہ طنز سے بھر پور ہوتے ہیں اور سب سے بڑھ کر انہوں نے جو کارنامہ سر انجام دینے کی سعی کی ہے وہ ایڈمنسٹریشن سسٹم کی حقیقت بیان کی ہے۔ انہوں نے ناول کو صرف اس لیے نہیں لکھا کہ پڑھنے کے بعد انہیں نقادوں اور ادیبوں سے داد یا تنقید ملے۔ بس وہ کھلے دل کے ، اپنی طرز کے  واحد آدمی ہیں جنھوں نے ناول...

Study on the Effect of Dehydration Techniques on the Nutritional Quality of Mango Mangifera Indica L. Products

The study was designed to determine the effect of various dehydration techniques on the nutritional quality of mango (Mangifera indica L.) products. In the first phase of the study, nutritional characteristics of fresh immature mango of different varieties were determined. The results revealed that maximum TSS, protein, non-reducing sugar, K and Cu were recorded in variety Langra. Whereas, maximum moisture, ash, fat, total sugar, reducing sugar and Mn were observed in variety Sindhri, however, variety Chaunsa showed higher vitamin C, Mg and Cr content. It was further observed that variety Desi was rich in minerals such as Na, Ca, Zn and Fe with maximum acidity. In the second phase of the study mango powder was prepared from different mango varieties using different drying techniques. The results of mango powder prepared with-peel showed that variety Chaunsa had significantly higher moisture and vitamin C content, whereas TSS, total sugar, reducing sugar, Ca, K, Mg, Cu were higher in without peel powder in variety Chaunsa than other varieties. Among the drying methods, maximum moisture was retained in wooden glass drying method (12.88%), whereas, maximum TSS, ash, protein, vitamin C and non-reducing sugar were observed in mango powder dried under cabinet drying method. Moreover, the majority of the minerals were found in maximum quantity in mango powder dried under wooden glass drying method. During the third phase of the study the unripe and ripened mangoes of different varieties were picked from various tree positions viz. top, middle and bottom. The results revealed that during ripening period the TSS was increased in all the varieties. It was further observed that maximum moisture (85.28%) and total sugar (29.36%) was observed in ripened Chaunsa mangoes. The higher Vitamin C content (26.34mg 100g-1) was found in ripened Langra mangoes than other varieties. The unripe variety Desi had the highest acidity (0.47%) as compared to other unripe and ripened mango varieties. It was also observed that minerals were significantly higher in unripe than ripened mangoes, Na, Ca and Zn were higher in variety Desi, Mg, Fe, Cr and Mn were maximum in variety Chaunsa, whereas, variety Sindhri and Langra were rich in K and Cu, respectively. Among the mangoes picked from different tree positions, moisture, TSS, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar, ash, acidity, vitamin C, Na, Ca, Fe, Mg, Cr and Mn were higher in mangoes picked from top tree position as compared to middle and bottom positions. xv In the last phase of the study, the slices were prepared from mangoes of different varieties obtained from top, middle and bottom tree positions using different drying methods. It was reflected that the mango slices of variety Chaunsa prepared from top tree position mangoes, had the highest pH, ash, TSS and vitamin C content. It was further observed that moisture content was highest (12.88%) in slices of mangoes of variety Sindhri obtained from top tree position and dried under wooden glass drying method. However, total sugar, reducing and non-reducing sugars were significantly higher in slices of variety Chaunsa obtained from top tree position, whereas, Ca content of variety Desi was higher in cabinet drying method in slices prepared from top tree position than all other varieties. Cabinet drying method resulted in higher quantities of K (819.60 mg kg-1), Mg (78.64 mg kg-1), Zn (2.62 mg kg-1), Fe (6.86 mg kg-1), Cu (5.92 mg kg-1), Cr (1.02 mg kg-1) and Mn (3.22 mg kg-1) as compared to open sun drying and wooden glass drying methods. The sensory evaluation of mango powder prepared under cabinet dehydration method proved to be better from variety Desi without peel than other varieties investigated, while mango slices of variety Chaunsa prepared from top tree position under cabinet dehydration resulted in better quality than other varieties and drying methods. It was concluded from the present study that cabinet dehydration method proved to be better in the preparation of mango powder and slices than other two drying methods. The study further confirmed that mango powder and slices prepared from variety Chaunsa were superior in quality and all other nutritional characteristics than other varieties. Similarly, mango slices prepared from top tree position were better in quality than those made from middle and bottom tree positions.
