Though the essential concept of rights may transform for prisoners however the prison walls do not keep the fundamental rights altogether out. The transformation of concepts of rights though subtracts several liberties however grants certain special rights to the inmates. This research is an attempt to explore those rights in a thematic way. In this regard, the first category relates to the right to avail ‘alternative strategies to imprisonment’ or ‘non custodial methods’. These methods are not very popular in Pakistani criminal justice system. The primary reason for this resistant attitude is that the out-dated laws offer extremely weak surveillance and monitoring mechanisms to support these methods/ alternative strategies. Therefore most of the times the system while failing to trust these mechanisms rules out the possibility to employ these strategies. Resultantly the detainee/offender gets affected. Chapter II, III and IV of this research particularly provide a discussion on pre-trial/pre-sentencing, post-trial/sentencing and post-sentencing non-custodial methods respectively. The second thematic category relates to the ‘rights of reformation of inmates during imprisonment’. In this regard, Chapter V specifically deals with the rights of prisoners captivated under terrorism charges. These prisoners face inequitable attitude not only during the trial but also in post-conviction scenario. This Chapter is a statutory and judicial scrutiny of the matter which provides recommendations to solve the issue. Chapter VI is a thorough discussion on the right of reformation and rehabilitation, the relevant available strategies to ensure this right in Pakistan, their reasons of failure and the suggestions for improvement. The next category relates to the post-imprisonment rights of ex-prisoners with specific reference to the ‘right of repatriation’. Chapter VII highlights the current statutory position with relation to the ex-prisoners/convicts in Pakistan. It suggests the remedies in the light of English statutory mechanisms to deal with the issue. vii Chapter VIII is a comparative study of the modern viewpoint on above-cited rights with the Islamic perspective. This Chapter concludes that the basic concepts of nearly all the modern rights and the rights provided by Sh’ariah to the prisoners are similar. Sometimes the legal procedure lacks with regard to some modern rights however this deficiency might be removed through proper law making. The final Chapter gives the concluding suggestions. Thus this thesis is not a discussion regarding the provision of basic amenities to the prisoners as their right but it touches some thematic approaches of rights of prisoners starting from the rights of ‘detainee prisoners’ towards ending upon the rights of ‘ex-prisoners’.

منشی عطاء اﷲ

منشی عطاء اﷲ 
افسوس ۲؍ فروری کو دارالمصنفین کے مخلص اور قدیم کارکن منشی عطاء اﷲ صاحب نے داعی اجل کو لبیک کہا، ان کا اصلی وطن کیرانہ ضلع مظفرنگر تھا، ۱۹۱۶؁ء میں دارالمصنفین میں پریس قائم ہوا تو ان کے بڑے بھائی منشی عبدالحفیظ صاحب مرحوم نے اس کے انصرام کی ذمہ داری قبول کی، ان ہی کے ساتھ یہ بھی اعظم گڑھ آکر شعبۂ طباعت سے وابستہ ہوئے، جب کبرسنی کی وجہ سے ملازمت ترک کرنی چاہی تو سید صباح الدین صاحب مرحوم کا شدید اصرار اس میں مانع ہوا، پھر اپنے سعادت مند فرزند ڈاکٹر محمد نعیم ندوی کے اصرار سے گھر پر آرام کرنا منظور تو کرلیا لیکن ان کا دل دارالمصنفین ہی میں لگا رہتا تھا، اس لیے جب تک قوت رہی برابر دوسرے تیسرے روز یہاں آتے رہے، وہ طبعاً نیک، صلح پسند اور دیندار تھے، اپنی دینداری کی وجہ سے اپنے اکلوتے بیٹے ڈاکٹر محمد نعیم ندوی کو حفظ کرانے کے بعد ندوہ میں داخل کیا، جو فراغت کے بعد دارالمصنفین کے رفیق رہے اور اب ابوظہبی کے محکمۂ شرعیہ سے وابستہ ہیں، منشی عطاء اﷲ صاحب اپنی نیکی، بھلمنساہت اور ملنساری کی وجہ سے شہر میں مقبول تھے، اﷲ ان کی مغفرت فرمائے اور متعلقین کو صبر جمیل عطا فرمائے۔
(ضیاء الدین اصلاحی، فروری ۱۹۹۲ء)

 

Strategies for Improving Memory in Students

Students generally have little to no understanding of the memory processes, resulting in an inability to study effectively. To perform better, it is imperative to take control of memory by understanding how memory works, how information can be committed to memory, and how forgetting can be avoided. Some insight into the cognitive load theory can also be applied to improve learning.

An Empirical Study on Entrepreneurial Orientation and Smes Perceived Performance: Moderating Role of Transformational Leadership, Environmental Factors and Access to Financial Capital

An Empirical Study on Entreprenurial Orientation and SMEs Percieved Performance: Moderating Role of Transformational Leadership, Environmental Factors and Access to Financial Capital The present study examined the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) of Pakistan. Entrepreneurial orientation (EO) was evaluated on three dimensions, i.e. innovativeness, risk attitude and pro-activeness. Firm performance was measured through two dimensions, i.e. growth and profitability. The moderating effects of transformational leadership, access to financial capital and environmental factors were checked on the relationship between EO and firm performance. The population of the current study consists of all SMEs operated in Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa. The sampling framework of the current study consists of Peshawar division, which includesthree districts of Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa including Peshawar, Charsadda and Nowshera. The study used multistage cluster sampling technique; first, the study selected Peshawar division (Peshawar, Charsadda and Nowshera) on simple random sampling technique. Secondly, through proportionate stratified random sampling technique, the study selected 254 organizations. Respondents of the study include top level managers of the selected organizations. The respondents’ responses were gathered through a structured questionnaire having a five pointLikert scale. The study found that EO is positively and significantly related to firm performance. Besides, the study also found that each dimension of EO namely innovativeness, risk attitude and pro-activeness were significantly related to firm performance and its dimensions growth and profitability. Moreover, the study also found that transformational leadership moderates the relationship between EO and firm performance. Similarly, the study also found that access to financial capital moderates the significant relationship between EO and firm performance, but environmental factor does not moderate the relationship between EO and firm performance. The study finally concluded that EO had significant impact on firm performance. Based on the findings, it is recommended that SMEs should enhance entrepreneurial orientation in their respective organizations in order to improve their performance. Furthermore, the study also recommended that SMEs may improve their performance through accessibility to financial capital and the leader leadership style, i.e. transformational leadership style as it impacts organizational performance.Limitations, practical implications, recommendations and directions for future research are also highlighted.
