عوام کا استحصال
ٹیکس کا موجودہ نظام امیر لوگوں کا تحفظ ، مفلس اور متوسط آمدنی والے طبقے پر بوجھ ڈالتا ہے۔ عام عوام کو جو ٹیکس ادا کرنا پڑتا ہے وہ ضرورت اشیا کے مطابق سترہ فیصد ہوتا ہے مگر تمام ٹیکسز کو ملا کر تین گناہ زیادہ بن جاتا ہے۔اور یہ ٹیکس امیر آدمی کے لیے تو رائی برابر مگر غریب اور متوسط طبقہ افراد کی کمر توڑ کر رکھ دیتا ہے۔ پاکستان کے تمام رہنما قانون آئین اور جمہوریت کی بات کرتے ہیں مگر ان عظیم رہنما ؤں نے کبھی بھی موجودہ نظام میں ٹیکسز کی اصلاح کا ایجنڈا پیش نہیں کیا تو شروع سے یہ نظام چلتا آ رہا ہے ،یہ جوں کا توںہی رہا اور عوام کا استحصال کیا جاتا رہا۔ قوم مسلسل اقتدار اور اعلی منصب پر فائز لوگوں سے ٹیکس وصول نہ کرنے کی سیاسی سرپرستی کی وجہ سے نقصان برداشت کرتی رہی۔لیکن اذیت کی بات تو اصل میں یہ رہی کہ یہ حکومت پھر بھی خود کو عوام کا خیر خواہ کہتی رہی۔موجودہ استحصالی نظام کی وجہ سے وہ افراد جن کا تعلق غریب طبقہ سے ہے انھیں کسمپرسی کی زندگی گزارنے پر مجبور کیا جا رہا ہے اور غربا میں کمی کی بجائے اضافہ ہوتا جا رہا ہے۔ملکی ترقی تب ہی ممکن ہے جب طبقاتی تفریق کا خاتمہ کیا جائے اور مساوات کا نظام روا رکھا جائے۔

This article highlights the Islamic and the prophetic teachings regarding the promotion of peace. The human progress is directly associated with peace. The so-called peacemakers of the world have failed in their insincere and incompetent quest for peacekeeping, rather, they they have contributed to deteriorate peace furhter. Islām and its prophet (ﷺ) present the impeccable and practical methods and methodology to establish and maintain peace in society. We find that in all his roles and status, the prophet (ﷺ) of Islām is a symbol and model of peace. The very words of Islām and Muslim are the titles, enogh to indicate the approach of Islām towards peace. The author of this paper draws the attention of the readers that in its beliefs, ethical teachigs, laws, and rituals of worship, the sole aim of the Islām is to enhance and promote peace at the individual, as well as, the collective level. The scope of peace in Islām is not confined to the Muslims only, it includes the nonMuslim, too. Further, it encompasses animals and vegetation in its fold of peace. This is what the world needs to focus on and admit; and the media needs to highlight and promote, so that, the real image of Islām may come to fore and the false propaganda against it die away.
Newcastle disease is one of the nastiest disease of chicken throughout the world, particularly in developing countries like Pakistan. The present study was aimed to prepare a cell culture adapted vaccine for propagation and adaptation of avirulent thermostable NDV I -2 strain on Vero cell line, molecular confirmation and characterization of cell culture adapted thermostable NDV I-2 strain and experimental and field evaluation of the cell culture adapted NDV I-2 vaccine (Thermo-Vac) in broiler birds. A well characterized avirulent, Australian origin thermostable I-2 ND Virus strain was used for vaccine production. In the current study, Vero cell line was used for production of thermostable I-2 NDV vaccine. Vero cells were grown at the rate of 3×107 cells per ml in MEM199 medium. The morphological alterations such as roundening, aggregation of cells and detachment of cells were observed after the growing of virus, called cytopathic effect (CPE). The first clear CPE was observed in passage no. 10 following of 120 hours post infection. Haemagglutination test for each passage showed that supernatant contained the virus. Consistent CPE was observed at passage no. 13th which conferred the adaptation of NDV I-2 of Vero cells. Thermostablity was evaluated after each passage of virus and results showed that thermostability of NDV I-2 strain was retained after adaptation on Vero cell line. Biological titration of that adapted passage produced 106 pfu/ml and log10 8 per ml tissue culture infective dose fifty (TCID50). Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used for molecular detection of Vero cell adapted virus. Specific primer amplified fusion protein cleavage site and produced 204 bp DNA fragment. The accession number i.e. KM043779 was obtained from Genbank. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that 80-90% homology of in nucleotides amino acids was existed among the other reported thermostable NDV isolates. The Vero cell adapted virus was used for preparation of Thermo-Vac (cell culture adapted lyophilized NDV I-2) vaccine. Thermostability of vaccine and sterility of prepared vaccine was checked by inoculating culture media. An experimental chicken NDV infection experiments in group 1, maximum HI and ELISA mean antibody titers Log2 and standard deviation was achieved at days 14 e.g. 7.5±0.79a, 6812±0.654a as followed 2±0.41a,, 1633±0.341a, 6.0±0.13a, 4899±0.546a, 6.8±0.49a, 5899±0.879a, 6.75±0.64a, 5716±0.546a and 4.5±0.53a, 3480±0.347a at day 0, 7, 21, 28 and 35 following Thermo-Vac vaccination via drinking water method as compared to commercially 12 available NDV LaSota vaccine (Group 2) HI and ELISA mean antibody titer Log2 and standard deviation i.e. 2±0.41b, 1633±0.632a, 2.95±0.29b, 2300±0.231b, 4.04± 0.62b, 4520±0.234b, 3.09±0.73b, 3400±0.543b, 2.20±0.11b, 2372±0.653b and 2 ± 0.65b, 1500±0.436b at day 0, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 respectively. The antibody titers of Thermo-Vac vs NDV LaSota were vaccinated birds significantly different from one another except at day 0. In negative control (group 3) no protective antibodies were produced. After NDV challenge infection, we observed any morbidity and mortality in chicks in all groups. The results showed that administration of Thermo-Vac vaccine in broiler birds was feasible and was found to induce more protective antibody response i.e. 90% against challenge infection in group 1 as compared with group 2 NDV LaSota 60% protection after challenge viral infection. In group 3, all birds died after challenge infection within 2-3 days. Cellular immune response was examined through spleenic cell migration inhibition assay. The results showed that in group 1, Thermo-Vac vaccine start producing % inhibition migration at day 3 (40%) and reached optimized level at day 6 (50%) as gradually decreased at day 9, 12, 15 and 18 i.e. 38%, 26%, 14%, 13% respectively. In group 2, LaSota ND vaccine shown % migration inhibition at day 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 i.e. 32%, 43%, 34%, 19%, 10%, 12% respectively. The % migration inhibition was less than 15% in control group throughout the experiment. The % migration inhibition with ND I -2 antigen in group 1 was significantly higher as compared with Group 2 LaSota ND vaccine. In field conditions, maximum geometric mean anti-NDV-HI (Log27.83) and anti-NDV-ELISA (6017) antibodies titers were observed, respectively on 14th day post vaccination. In conclusion, Thermo-Vac vaccine produced protective cellular and humoral immunity against NDV, So, Thermostable NDV I-2 strain can be a preferred choice against NDV in developing countries like Pakistan.
