آہ! مولانا ضیاء الدین اصلاحی ؒ
دارالمصنفین کے ناظم اور معارف کے مدیر جناب مولانا ضیاء الدین اصلاحی ۲؍ فروری ۲۰۰۸ء کی صبح کو اپنے خالق حقیقی کے حضور پہنچ کر اس کی رحمت سے جاملے لیکن اپنے پیچھے دارالمصنفین کے ہر فرد بلکہ در و دیوار کو روتا، بلکتا چھوڑ گئے، شبلی و سلیمان کا یہ گلشن ویرانی کی تصویر بن گیا، اس جہاں علم و دانش کی روح بھی جیسے ان کی موت کے ساتھ رخصت ہوگئی اور سچ یہ ہے کہ علامہ شبلیؒ، مولانا سید سلیمان ندویؒ، مولانا شاہ معین الدین ندویؒ اور سید صباح الدین عبدالرحمانؒ کی قابل فخر روایات کی مسند اور بزم جس شمع سے روشن تھی، ایک حادثے نے اس کو گل کردیا، اِنا ﷲ وَاِنا اِلیہ رَاجِعونْ۔
مولانا اصلاحی ۳؍ جنوری کو سفر حج سے واپس آئے تھے اور بالکل چاق چوبند اور صحت مند تھے، یکم فروری کو وہ اپنی اہلیہ کے ہمراہ ایک عزیز سے ملنے کے لئے سرائے میر کے قریب موضع کھریواں کے لئے قریب ساڑھے نو بجے صبح روانہ ہوئے، جمعہ کا دن تھا، خطبہ اور نماز پڑھانے کے لئے مجھے تاکید فرمائی، عین نماز جمعہ سے پہلے یہ خبر ملی کہ ان کی جیپ حادثہ کا شکار ہوگئی ہے اور وہ صدر اسپتال میں زخمی حالت میں لائے گئے ہیں، نماز کے فوراً بعد ان کے تمام متعلقین اسپتال پہنچے، وہ سراپا زخمی تھے، ان کی اہلیہ بھی زخمی تھیں، لیکن ہوش میں تھیں، مشورے کے بعد وہ ایک مقامی سرجن ڈاکٹر فرقان کے ہسپتال میں لائے گئے، خون بہت زیادہ نکل چکا تھا، خون دیا گیا اور پھر مناسب سمجھا گیا کہ ان کو فوراً بنارس کے بی ایچ یو ہسپتال میں منتقل کیا جائے، وہاں کچھ ضروری ٹسٹ ہوئے، دوائیں بھی دی گئیں لیکن افاقے کے آثار نہیں تھے، صبح کا...
The increasing population is a growing issue in densely populated cities, which leads to an increase in transportation services. In this paper travel time delay due to stationary bottleneck was observed throughout the week in one of the densely populated cities of Pakistan i.e. Peshawar. Videogrammetry was implemented to obtain the recorded frames through the various days of the week. The recorded frames were then statistically analyzed to identify the travel delays in Board Bazaar Peshawar at a stationary bottleneck using SPSS and Statgraphics Software. The statistical analysis revealed a direct proportionality between traffic density and travel time, whereas an inverse proportionality was identified between traffic speed and traffic density. A high traffic density was observed on working days, whereas on the non-working days a reduced traffic density was observed. This study recommends a predictive target lane vehicular guidance system for a smooth traffic flow.
Wheat crop occupies a central position in agriculture sector and our national economy. Pakistan’s contribution toward global wheat production is about 3.2 percent. The Punjab province is leading producer of wheat with a share of more than 70 percent of the total wheat production of the country. Despite being an agricultural country, food security of Pakistan has remained at stake since long because of poor yield and high post harvest losses caused by the storage pests. On the other hand country has a great exporting potential not only to achieve Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) relating to food security and safety but can earn foreign exchange and pay off country’s entire debts within 10 years just equaling our yield to that of Indian Punjab. Present investigations were, therefore, carried out to explore these potentials in terms of reducing post-harvest losses, food security and safety risks caused by the storage pests particularly the Khapra beetle which is a notified quarantine pest internationally. The studies revealed an average loss of 15.5 percent when 10 pairs of Khapra larvae were released for a period of 6 months under the natural conditions. Similarly there were found 33 and 8 percent increase in number of weeviled and broken grains, respectively. Besides, the beetle depleted approximately 4 percent carbohydrates that resulted in 0.35 and 1 percent increase in ash and crude fiber contents, respectively. Although total protein and fat percentages were slightly increased, yet these increases were predominantly due to the percentage loss of carbohydrates as well as production of proteinaceous by-products of live insects, insect fragments, and excreta etc., which could not be sieved from the samples before chemical analysis. Further analysis of about 400 samples drawn from the entire province revealed that quality of Punjab wheat not only meets the international standards rather it is superior in many characteristics including protein content, moisture, bulk density, foreign matter, falling number. However, presence of quarantine pests such as T. granarium, Tilletia spores and Striga weeds render it unmarketable in the quality conscious world.

A compatible treatment of are house with 2 % deltamethrin, Lambda cyhalothrin or DDVP. The present findings will surely help in bridging the gap between food security demand/supply and will enable us to improve quality and safety of the treated cereals resulting in enhanced acceptance of our food crops in the international market." xml:lang="en_US
