Better late than never



Sometimes we do not understand what’s going around ourselves and start living without caring anyone and anything. That was with me from past few months and now I realized I created a blunder for myself!!! I was living in fantasy... pursuing MBA is not a big deal but the thing which is important is future and career... I want to learn from every moment of my life...This is what I am...My aspirations are very high..... But this desire for learning stopped from few months due to my own thinking of living in fantasy world....: P:P but there is a phrase in Urdu--"Der aaye, par durust aaye "--Better late than never..And also -"Jab Jaago tab Sawera"...whenever you realize its new beginning!!Time is the most powerful thing which wipes everything.... your sorrows, your sadness, your loss!! Everything...Time makes people realize the value of what they had and what they have. ..It’s a fact when people have something in excess they don't respect it. Time is the spoil sport to make you realize that you just lost something very important but then it says it’s too late dear!!!!One should respect whatever they have friends, family, power and loved ones. Because it’s a fact you cannot live without what you have right now it’s just one do not realize the importance of existence..... I always lived my life as it’s a journey which God gave us and it’s upon us how we travel it!!!  So making someone very important is waste... 
There is no time in Life for making someone unhappy and sad!! Better make people happy and enjoy every moment of life!! Because after you are gone from this world...only happy moments will be remembered by people!!!! That’s the way of living Life!!!!!!!!

Teaching and Research Interest


My same interest has been shaped on the one hand by my own inclinations and on the other by needs of the Department since I have joined the College. My basic training in Urdu literature began early during my graduation. As one of the papers of Urdu (Hons) course, History of Urdu language, required me to read some basic book of Urdu literature and thus motivated an urge to study Urdu Literature. I was thus fascinated by the ways in which languages share their lexicons crossing the geographical boundaries. The very fact that the different root-words travel all the way from Persian, Arabic, English, Hindi, Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, Baltic, Slavic and finally through Germanic route come to survive in Urdu encourage me to look beyond to pursue my career in Urdu Languages.  I got the proper environment and academic atmosphere to spur and nurture my intellectual appetite in University of Delhi where I did my MA, M.Phil, PhD and two post doctoral research The courses and new ways of dealing with the course-content and evaluation system all thrilled me into becoming an academician. Various papers in MA, M.Phil, Ph. D, and post doctoral research in University of Delhi,  that shaped my interest in Urdu language were ‘Research and Critical Study’, ‘North  India as a linguistic Area’, Field-Methods and ‘Grammatical theories and models’. I have been interested in the structure of words and sentences from the early days of my training in Urdu. I worked on several small projects and term-papers during my Masters and M.Phil in University of Delhi. The main focus of my term-papers has always been to examine the complex relationships of words to other words and to sentences at large. The issue of relativity and its relationship with the other grammatical alteration in the sentence, dative subject constructions and its effect on the role of verbal inflection were some of the issues which I tried to solve in Urdu (my mother tongue). While research scholar at University of Delhi, I was selected through an interview to teach history of Urdu to the under graduates doing B. A. at the school of open learning University of Delhi. Such an experience to put into practice what I had learned was very exciting. I thus taught ‘history of Urdu’, ‘Introduction to Urdu Literature’ to the same in the same for several years. I have had the opportunity to undertaken several field-works during MA, M.Phil and PhD research work in same University. I worked on Urdu language during my M. A. In University of Delhi, had offered so many projects to Prof. Irteza Karim of University of Delhi, to cross-examine the findings of Prof. Irteza Karim who had claimed the existence of some kentum elements in an Indo-Aryan language called Bangani. After an orientation program, which was followed by an interview, I was selected to assist him in the field for the abovementioned project. The language and its structural complexities inspired me to take another field-oriented paper in my M. Phil and do extensive field-work for few days on Bangani. I submitted a report on ‘The structure of NP in Bangani’ for the course. My PhD work, as it turned out, needed several field-works in order to have varied and intense lingual data. All these years I have developed a passion to work with the native speakers of different languages and with all necessary field techniques, I have always been able to create a congenial environment for data collection. Later on, at the University of Delhi, where I went to pursue my PhD, I had the privilege of doing some advanced courses such as political and historical back ground of Urdu, syntax, documentary/descriptive linguistics and psycholinguistics. My research was also largely related to the examination of the complex nature of words and their syntactic environments in which they are patterned to make up sentence and finally the discourse. Though, I had to quit the program as my RA-ship in got over after one year, I had the chance to learn the streaks of professionalism in academics. Teaching Urdu as a modern Indian language in the Department of Urdu, enabled me not only to use the techniques and tools of linguistics in my teaching (such as sound-system, structure of the syllable, words and sentences) but also helped me gain a first hand insight into the problems of syntactic constructions such as conjunct verb construction, infinitives and the small clause-construction in Urdu, seen as a modern Indian language from the perspective of the learner. I submitted my PhD in the Dept of Urdu University of Delhi, and the thesis of Ph. D &M. Phil Dissertation and other collection of Articles has been under published by reputed publications New Delhi. I am very happy to report that Prof. Irteza Karim, Head, Department of Urdu has written the foreword for the book. He accepted my request to do this as he had read the draft of my same scripts.
I have examined eight different varieties of Urdu-Persian, besides providing an account of nine major languages of India to show how the phenomenon of ‘Grammatical Agreement’ works in these languages. My training as a field-Urdu helped me to collect and collate the data of eight varieties of Urdu-Persian. The incessant drive to try to find a unified theory for the Urdu languages phenomenon by comparing and cross examining the structure of different languages that I learned at various stages of either teaching or learning language typology, helped me to provide a better analysis and examination of the function of agreement phenomenon in typologically similar and genetically related varieties of Urdu-Hindi. I have shown that the varieties of Urdu-Hindi can be classified in three different TYPES on the basis of the agreement system that they display;
A. Languages that have only Subject-verb agreement.
B. Languages that have both Subject-verb & Object-verb agreement on an alternative basis (i.e. the verb agrees with either the subject or the object in different syntactic environment).
C. Languages that have primarily Subject-verb agreement, however, other actants (NPs) also find their marking on the verb due to certain pragmatic value or requirements of the language e.g. specificity marking, animacy factor, scale of honorificity and some patter gap in the system of pronouns etc. I have tried to unify the agreement types (a) & (c) into one system and have termed it as a single system of agreement and have labelled  the agreement type (b) as a dual system of agreement. The motivation for the combining (a) & (c) into one comes from two main factors; (i) there is no change of the syntactic environment of marking the inflection of other actants (NPs) on the verb besides the subject (ii) the languages do not show overt object agreement. With the help of such micro level study of the phenomenon in the varieties of Urdu-Hindi, I have tried to provide a solution to the problem of ‘agreement facts’ in complex predicates of Urdu-Hindi at a macro level which otherwise remains unexplained.
Before joining the Department of Urdu, Kirori Mal College, University of Delhi, I was selected in a reputed research institution .However, I took up the job at University of Delhi, considering the fact that I would be able to finish my post doctoral work within the stipulated time-limit if I work in University of Delhi in general and the Department of Urdu Kirori Mal College in particular has provided me a very strong and healthy environment of growth and a good opportunity to further shape my research interest.  I have been teaching several papers of Urdu language & literature since 2000. They include ‘history of Urdu, Urdu culture, Urdu society Urdu prose & poetry, in the Department of Urdu School Open learning DU). I have also helped the Department to carry out intensive field-works on several assignments. In addition to my regular teaching assignments, I have also in contributed to other regularly organized programs of the Department. I have thus taught History in such programs to Indian students. Teaching these classes always has helped me to practice the theories of most of the core areas of Urdu literature. The feed back (the assignments) from the programs have enriched my point of view of analyzing the corpus. It has also given me insights into the area of interference and the typological similarity of the target and source language, despite the fact that innovate in language teaching in addition to the direct method of teaching mostly followed and used within teaching of Urdu and English. I am working on the role of Urdu language in promotion to nationalism which has been accepted for publication by a reputed publisher. The book contains a precise and in-depth account of historical study of the Urdu language. I am also having planned to work on a text-book–“Introduction to Urdu Language for Foreign language learners” which will help the learners to accelerate their process of learning the foreign language. The work has also been already accepted for publication by a reputed publisher. The publisher has also promised to bring out a foreign print. to keep the price of the book affordable not only for the students in sub-continent also for all over the world.
 I have professional interest in various schools of thoughts in Urdu literature. Area of my interest started emerging while doing post graduation in Urdu from University of Delhi. I started reading more about poetry & novel. Most of my study period was devoted towards this direction. This area of interest kept continued in my M.Phil course with new direction. I did a lot of work in the same field with progressive approach. Ph.D work was slightly activated from this direction and adopted a new specialization area in Romantic long verse (MATHNAVI) Attending seminars /workshop in this field in the documentary and literary proof of my interest in this profession. I also touched the clam cal field in Urdu literature. Ministry of Tourism & culture had awarded me the junior fellowship to carry out the research on “Urdu Hindi Folk Literature". My work on the same was well appreciated by the Ministry peoples. On basis of that Indian Council of Historical Research has awarded me Post Doctoral Fellowship for doing the Research on "A Study of Hindu-Muslim Relations Around Partition as reflected in Saadat Hasan Mantos Stories". In the last, I would like to accept the challenging work for promoting the Urdu language from different perspectives Teaching & Research have become extra forte of my life style. You will be happy to read the opinion of my Guide Prof. Irteza Karim who is my elder brother that “As Researcher Dr.Yahya Saba is well known not mainly in Urdu also other subjects. He deeply committed to its aim of setting the highest literary standards by recognizing good literature and also establishing a deep culture bond among various languages and communities of India through his work and contribution. Published work of high quality in different Urdu news paper and journals which are significant contribution to knowledge. He is actively engaged in research and teaching at University level since ten years. He want to introduce innovative concepts to provide a multi-disciplinary profile and to allow a cafeteria like approach including initiating new research to cater to frontier development in the concerned subject to to combine the practical requirements of research in the Indian academic context with the need to observe high standards to provide knowledge in the frontier areas of their disciplines, it has also been aimed to combine the goals and parameters of global knowledge with pride in the Indian heritage and India’s contribution in this context. The purpose of my research has been to provide a broad common framework for exchange mobility and free dialogue across the entire Indian research community. This research will provide spirits of openness and continuous improvements create thoughts and actions in the mind of the people of nation so that they live united. Guiding people a path of life with righteousness as righteous man gives the strength of character. Helping all religious leaders, philosophers, politicians, historians, academicians and researchers of India is to give strength to the people to combat the divisive forces.

REAL ACTION FOR URDU LANGUAGE (ASAL KOSHISH URDU ZABAN KE LIYE)



It is time for Urdu lovers to come together and take a real action to bring Urdu to the real terms at National, Regional and International scenes. Urdu has been confined to literature and poetry; and now it is our job to bring the language in actual work in our day to day life. Though the work is unstopping continuously in this field, the real onus on our shoulders is to trigger the very spirit and help those who are grounded in reality for the uplifment of the language.
Our Demands for Urdu Language:
Urdu being the second National language of India comes in our demand as to be used like Hindi in parallel in the National and State assembly conventions and sessions terms language. In the whole of India, the sign boards’ public or private, individual
company or organization must be in Urdu with Hindi and, besides the replaced language should not be Urdu but Hindi if English is to be used over there additionally. The Head of the State or the country whether President, Prime Minister or anyone who is representing India at home or abroad must deliver his/her lecture in Urdu-Hindi only. During press conference, he/she, however,
can reply in English besides Urdu-Hindi. The titles of films, dramas and other TV serials must be in Urdu and Hindi besides English as they are the identity of India abroad. Besides Government offices Urdu-Hindi must be given priority in private sectors also in India. Urdu-Hindi must also be used in scoreboards of any sports event and even the scorecards must be in Urdu Hindi besides English in all India’s stadiums and sports complexes. The Government of India must work at International level to promote Urdu Hindi and must make efforts at official level to make Urdu the seventh language of United Nation as it is the language of 430 million in the subcontinent and around the world. In our country, Urdu should be made the second official language in Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and South West Maharashtra where there are sizeable population of Hindu-Muslims and Urdu speakers and where Urdu has its strong roots for centuries. More grants to be given for Urdu schools which are on the verge of being closed. The government of India had already set up ministries and advisory boards for promotion of Urdu, and now it is up to the NGOs and other organizations to see it work. Muslim students in India must be allowed to take Urdu as one of the languages in schools besides English, Hindi and regional languages in State boards and University examinations. Muslim institutes and organizations in India must be forced to make use of Urdu language in their official work, sign boards, in their menu cards if in hotel business and so on. Every Government notice in India must be in Urdu Hindi language also besides English and other respective regional languages. People, Governments, organizations and None Governmental Organizations both in India and subcontinent must make efforts to make more and more useofUrduatinternet.The websites of India and world’s Muslim organizations must ensure that it is available in Urdu also besides Hindi and English. If you are in India, or whichever part of the world and if you agree to the above demands please accept this implore. Thanking you in anticipation for accepting this implore.

Yours sincerely

While it tends to be heavily dominated by poetry, the range of expression achieved in the voluminous library of a few major verse forms, especially the Ghazal and Nazm long verse (poetry), has led to its continued development and expansion into other styles of writing, including that of the short story, or Afsana. Urdu literature is principally popular in India and Pakistan. Additionally, it enjoys substantial popularity among South Asian immigrants in North America, Europe and Middle East and usually around the world. It is widely understood in Afghanistan. Urdu is finding interest in North American, European and South Pacific Asian countries primarily through South Asian immigrants.”

SPECIALISATION: A CRITICAL STUDY OF DELHI COMPRISING OF ROMANTIC VERSE
·         Poetic masterpiece is the best known form of Urdu language and literature consisting of lot of couplets in several books. Verse composing writers flow their self-defined works as a work of destruction of the worldly affairs just for the sake of embracing the Divine. They warn the reader in advance to be prepared to let go of everything. Something of our poetry in the masnavi form has already been noticed in patches but it gives only fleeting glimpses of some of the prominent works from Afzal jhanjhanvi to Nasim. As the masnavi admitted no bar to subject matter, we came to possess a luxuriant variety-erotic, religious, biographical, panegyric, elegiac, humorous, satirical, historical including war narrative, personal, philosophical or just lyrical. Their very volumes and variety of works are compelling while there may be many of the indifferent qualities; there are quite a few notable ones as well. In its march from the South Delhi to Awadh, the masnavi faced dogged competition from other genres but the North, particularly Lucknow and the allied regions, developed a special liking for it. More than a thousand masnavi were written in U.P. alone. The condensed but diffused gems of ghazal had lost much of their luster but some daring and inventive poets wanted to exploit the newly acquired capacity and vigour for the longer and more expressive forms.The poets in Delhi were mostly ghazal writers. Like Ghalib and Zauq produced some panegyrics also but, so far as masnavis are concerned, there is a long pause after kawab-o-kheyal(1780-1784). The Capital lacked the peace and order which is usually conducive to the writing of longer narratives. For the same reason, most of the major poets like Mir Hasan, Soz, Rangin, Hasrat, Jura’t, Hidayat, and Mmnoon who had left the Capital, were writing notable pieces of Masnavi in Lucknow or elsewhere. It is a stray Masnavi from Mushafi or, as Mohammad Hussein ‘Azad’ tells us; Zauq that surfaced but no trace of the latter remains except a few couplets. Qudratullah ‘Qasim’s Zubadat-ul-Akhyar or Karamat-e-Piran-e-pir is devotional piece. A ‘zamuddaula  sarwar wrote seven masnavis in a row and compiled them as Sab’ab-e-Sayyarah (1821-1822) , which seems to have evoked little notice and remained in oblivion. His Laila Majnun and part of Yusuf Zulekha are lost for good. The only manuscript of his remaining five Wamiw-o-Azra, Farhah-o-Shirin, Diwanah-e-‘Ishq, Qissah-e-Jawan Saudagar and Waredat-e-‘Ishqiyahwere reprtedly with Maulana Hamid Hussein Qadiri, Mirza Qutub Ali BegFigar’s authorship of Yusuf Zulekha (1824-1825) is disputed. Figar was a proclaimed plagiarist and found often reciting other’s composition in his own name.  Names of Figar Azimabadi and Ashiq Lucknow have also been linked to the masnavi; the only other important piece is Sham-o-Parwana. It is the story of Padmavati retold in Urdu verse first by Mir Ziauddin ‘Ibrat of Delhi’ and on his death the remaining half was completed by Mir Ghulam Ali ‘Ishrat in 1797-1798. Despite the dual authorship, its readability has not been impaired. The stories, on which most of the masnavis are based, are part of folk-lore tradition now. The departures from the original have been marginal and their main merit lies in the dexterity with which these old themes are treated.Concerning various romantic mathnavi writers and Urdu poets who belong to Delhi or who came and settled down in Delhi afterwards, I have classified my thesis in the seven following chapters.First Chapter: In respect to the meaning and interpretation of romanticism, I have preferred here refer and suggest the characteristics of romanticism i.e. the denotative value and connotative relation of the terms.Second Chapter: This will consider the poets from Afzal Jhanjhanvi to Abroo; it will cover the first historical period of urdu literature too, which especially belongs to Faiz Fazail, Ali Khan Bekhud, Jafar Ali Khan Zaki and Abroo. All of them  had a peculiar sensibility in view of their art of verse composition. (Mathnavi)Third Chapter: This chapter includes some great and prominent poets like Meer Taqi Meer, Mushafi, Figar Dehlavi, Nawab Azamuddaula Sarvar Dehlavi.Fourth chapter:  In this chapter I have to point out what could be the real concept of love i.e. the phenomenon of love in the verse composing. (Mathnavi) Fifth chapter: This chapter has a distinction quality because of a remarkable verse (mathnavi) poet Meer Hasan. Here I will try my best to reveal and discuss the elements of nature and supernatural in the art of Meer Hasan. The other poets like Rangeen and Nazeer Akber Abadi are also along with him. But these respects they are minor poets in comparison with a giant like Meer Hasan Sixth chapter: There is an obvious turning point which can be observed in Masnavis of Momeen Khan Momeen and Dagh Dehlavi. Their importance is that they literally oppose the traditional concept of love which is basically idealistic and abstract as well. They introduce a concrete concept of love that is physical as well realistic.Chapter seven: Being the last chapter, it’s to conclude the whole analytic study of the Romantic Mathnavi of Delhi; how the various aspects of Romanticism works behind the art of Mathnavis; whether it is narrative or none narrative in their art and craft?  And how these elements are grown within the subjective sprit of Mathnavis and change their whole panorama. My understand is that the art of Mathnavi has a great plasticity in it. Since it is the only form in Urdu which I can, successfully narrate and dictate, is the plow-based life. Therefore, the Romanticism is not beyond its reach and limitation. It has already proved this plasticity of its form in the art of Meer and Momeen Dehlavi who’s Mathnavis are in its truea sense well versed with the spirit of Romanticism and reality both.
                                                                                                                      
 A SHORT DESCRIPTION OF ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES
Poetry and other forms of expression in literature all over the world are the strongest medium for reflecting the nuances of a particular society. Urdu is a modern language which emerged in the Indian sub-continent and reflects most aptly the composite heritage of the Indian people in all its dimensions. The language was adopted by the Hindus and Muslims alike and also became a prominent vehicle of our anti-imperialist struggle. Its rich vocabulary, multiple forms of expression, popular script and its ability to cater to the taste of the learned and the common men alike has made the language an important tool of historical reconstruction. All literary genres of Urdu language are the most important carries of our recent historical past. There has been an indomitable line of scholars writing in Urdu who while popularizing the language also made a formidable contribution in strengthening our composite culture and heritage. There is a vast corpus of Urdu literature which has not been assessed with the perspective of revisiting our historical past particularly with the objective of national reconstruction. These days I am doing research on this thrust area. This article describes the important elements of Hindu-Muslim culture and integration and their relevance to national reconstruction. It attempts to highlight the traces of a common heritage. Herein lays the relevance of Urdu literature in reflecting the elements of this common identity and composite culture. My work will make a brief survey of the trends in Urdu writing and will suitably contribute to a socio-historical reconstruction of India's past. It will also help in shaping our perspective of a common Indian heritage. I have a reasonable career in fields as varied as different forms of Urdu, Hindi and English literature & other disciplines of educational studies. As an Urdu scholar I have written on different facets of various schools of thoughts primarily in prose and in poetry to a lesser extent. All together, i am associated with various literary, cultural, social, educational activities promoted by academic organizations and educational institutions of higher learning in India & abroad. i am always making efforts to contribute to knowledge through my writings and teaching. In every class I try to discuss various un-explored educational issues and philosophical thoughts among my students. I try to develop my student’s knowledge to the extent that they become living reference document. My creative contribution will continue to grow throughout my life. My interest is in comprehensive understanding and inter-disciplinary appreciation of poetry, philosophy, sociology, education and the rest. My method of teaching has been to employ multidimensional and witty appreciation of subjects so that it inculcates interest in students. I encourage students to study and research hard so that they excel academically not only nationally but also dream an international repute some day in future. i am always trying to present Urdu language literature through other source or spectrum on global level as for example, science, technology, economy, etc. these are disciplines which provide value based research work for the development of Urdu language and useful for general masses in reference to source of employment. i want to groom best scholars of Urdu who will host the flag of India afloat around the world. They will hold professional and research position in many countries and will serve as a research advisors and experts on many bodies and various international commissions. They will become prolific authors of eye-opening books. They will publish thousands of remarkable articles in top ranking referred/professional international journals. Their seminal research will show a guiding light to the modern society and their writings will reflect a progressive approach and imagination.  i am look forward to a modern and progressive world despite living in conservative and stagnant society. The great writers of the world, thus, looked at modernity through the medieval window. They also imbibed discipline, talked about social harmony and integrity despite different religions through their top ranking writings. Their imagination is educative, informative, and scientific in nature.  The bottom line of mine hard creative and research works, thus, casts an image of harmonious, disciplined, scientific, rational and modernized society based on human dignity & justice. i thoroughly enjoy my academic life with my books. it has opened new vistas of thought and work. My education and books provide me with golden opportunities to express and write independently and thus, marked a full-fledged creative, human,  harmonious career which includes a number of eye opening articles, nazms & ghazals on various aspects of day to day life. My activities regarding peace messenger will remain constant till my last breath. God bless me to be a pillar of solution for the corporate life of our reputed institutions, Indian societies and in creation of a beautiful and bright world?
 I have professional interest in various schools of thoughts in Urdu literature. My area of interest started emerging while doing post graduation in Urdu from University of Delhi. I started reading more about poetry & novel. Most of my study period was devoted towards this direction. This area of interest continued in my M. Phil course with new direction. I did a lot of work in the same field with progressive approach. Ph.D work was slightly deviated from this direction and adopted a new specialization area in romantic long verse (mathnavi). Attending seminars /workshops in this field is documentary and literary proof of my interest in this profession. I also touched the folk literature in Urdu language. Ministry of Tourism & culture had awarded me the junior fellowship to carry out the research on “Urdu Hindi Folk Literature". My work on the same was well appreciated by learned officials of the Ministry. On the basis this work, Indian Council of Historical Research has awarded me Post Doctoral Fellowship for doing research on "A Study of Hindu-Muslim Relations around Partition as reflected in Saadat Hasan Manto's Stories". At last, I would like to accept the challenging work for promoting the Urdu language from different perspectives. Teaching & Research have become forte of my life.
My same interest has been shaped on the one hand by my own inclinations and on the other by needs of the Department since I joined the College. My basic training in Urdu literature began early during my graduation. As one of the papers of Urdu (Hons) course, History of Urdu language, required me to read some basic books of Urdu literature which ignited in me a quest to study Urdu Literature. I was thus fascinated by the ways in which languages share their lexicons crossing the geographical boundaries. The very fact that the different root-words travel all the way from Persian, Arabic, English, Hindi, Sanskrit,  and finally through Beraj &  other regional languages etc. route and then come to survive in Urdu encourages me to look beyond to pursue my career in Urdu Language. I got the proper environment and academic atmosphere to spur and nurture my intellectual appetite in University of Delhi where I did my MA, M.Phil, PhD and two post doctoral research. The courses and new ways of dealing with the course-content and evaluation system all thrilled me into becoming an academician. Various papers in MA, M.Phil, Ph. D, and post doctoral research in University of Delhi, shaped my interest in Urdu language. ‘I worked on several small projects and term-papers during my Masters and M.Phil in University of Delhi under the supervision of Prof. Irteza Karim. The main focus of my term-papers has always been to examine the complex relationships of words to other words and to sentences at large. The issue of relativity and its relationship with other grammatical alteration in the sentence, dative subject constructions and its effect on the role of verbal inflection were some of the issues which I tried to explore in Urdu. While a research scholar at University of Delhi, I was selected through an interview to teach history of Urdu to the under-graduates doing B. A. at the School of Open Learning, University of Delhi. Such an experience to put into practice what I had learned was very exciting. I thus taught origin of Urdu Language, cultural background of Urdu, charms of Urdu language, history of Urdu’, ‘Introduction to Urdu Literature’ in the said Institute for several years. I have had the opportunity to undertake several field-works during MA, M.Phil and PhD research work in Delhi University. I got ample opportunities to work on Urdu language from my M. A. onwards as University of Delhi, had offered various projects to Prof. Irteza Karim, my eventual supervisor of research. To cross-examine the findings of Prof. Irteza Karim who had claimed the existence of some kentum elements in an Indo-Aryan language called Bangani. After an orientation program, which was followed by an interview, I was selected to assist him in the abovementioned project. The language and its structural complexities inspired me to take another field-oriented paper in my M. Phil and I submitted a report on “Agha Shair as a Novelist” for the completion of my M. Phil Degree. My Ph. D work, as it turned out, needed several field-works in order to have varied and diverse collection of linguistic data. All these times I developed a passion to work with eminent scholars of different languages. Employing all necessary field-techniques, I have always been able to create a congenial environment for data collection. Later on, at the University of Delhi, where I continued to pursue my Ph. D, I had the privilege of doing some advanced courses such as cultural and historical background of Urdu, syntax, documentary/descriptive linguistics and psycholinguistics. My research was also largely related to the examination of the complex nature of words and their syntactic environments in which they are patterned to make up sentence and finally the discourse. I had the chance to learn the streaks of professionalism in academics. Teaching Urdu as a modern Indian language in the Department of Urdu, enabled me not only to use the techniques and tools of linguistics in my teaching (such as sound-system, structure of the syllable, words and sentences) but also helped me gain a first hand insight into the problems of syntactic constructions such as conjunct verb construction, infinitives and the small clause-construction in Urdu. I have seen Urdu as a modern Indian language from the perspective of a learner. I submitted my PhD in the Dept of Urdu University of Delhi and my Ph. D thesis & M. Phil dissertation and other collection of articles are under publication by a reputed publisher of New Delhi. I am very happy to report that Prof. Irteza Karim, Head, Department of Urdu has written the foreword for the book. He accepted my request to do this as he had read the draft of my manuscript. Before joining the Department of Urdu, Kirori Mal College, University of Delhi, I was selected in a reputed research institution abroad. However, I took up the job at the Department of Urdu, Kirori Mal College, University of Delhi, considering the fact that I would be able to finish my post doctoral work within the stipulated time-limit. It has provided me a very strong and healthy environment of growth and a good opportunity to further shape my research interest.  I have been teaching several papers of Urdu language & literature including ‘history of Urdu, Urdu culture, Urdu society Urdu prose & poetry, in the Department of Urdu and School of Open Learning, DU. I have also helped the Department to carry out intensive field-works on several assignments. In addition to my regular teaching assignments, I have also contributed to other regularly organized programs of the Department. I have thus taught History in such programs to Indian students. Teaching these classes always has helped me to practice the theories of most of the core areas of Urdu literature. The feed back from the programs have enriched my point of view of analyzing the literary corpus. It has also given me insights into the area of interference and the typological similarity of the target and source language, despite the fact that innovation in language teaching in addition to the direct method of teaching is mostly followed and used within teaching of Urdu through  English medium. I am working on the role of Urdu language in promotion to nationalism which has been accepted for publication by a reputed publisher. The book contains a precise and in-depth account of historical study of the Urdu language. I also have a plan to work on a text-book–“Introduction to Urdu Language for Foreign language learners” which will help the learners to accelerate their process of learning the foreign language. The work has also been already accepted for publication by a reputed publisher. The publisher has also promised to bring out a foreign print.
You will be happy to read the opinion of my Guide Prof. Irteza Karim who is like my elder brother that “As Researcher Dr.Yahya Saba is well known not only in Urdu but also in other subjects. He is deeply committed to the aim of setting highest literary standards by recognizing good literature and also establishing a deep cultural bond among various languages and communities of India through his work and contribution. His published works of high quality in different Urdu newspapers and journals are significant contribution to knowledge. He is actively engaged in research and teaching at University level since ten years. He wants to introduce innovative concepts to provide a multi-disciplinary profile and to allow a cafeteria like approach including initiating new research to cater to frontier development in the concerned subject to combine the practical requirements of research in the Indian academic context with the need to observe high standards. it has also been aimed to combine the goals and parameters of global knowledge with pride in the Indian heritage and India’s contribution in this context…"  The purpose of my research has been to provide a broad common framework for exchange mobility and free dialogue across the entire Indian research community. This research will provide a spirit of openness and continuous improvements in creative thoughts and actions in the mind of the people of nation so that they live united and guide people on a path of life with righteousness as righteousness gives the strength of character. Help all religious leaders, philosophers, politicians, historians, academicians and researchers of India to give strength to the people to combat the divisive forces. Guide Indians to develop an attitude to appreciate different ideologies and transform enmity among individuals, organizations and nations into friendliness and harmony and embed the thought that nation is bigger than the individual in the minds of the leaders and people. Help people to work with perseverance to transform the country into a peaceful and prosperous nation, a large scale effort on our part to contribute to harmony in society will help us always to maintain harmony in world. My research will convert our beloved country into a love garden from which whole world will take a holy lesson of love and peace which is the main source of national integration and reconstruction.  Moreover, examine closely my research, work and contribution in Urdu literature, through my bio-data and autobiographical account which are attached with this application. I hope that you and all the Urdu loving people will appreciate the work done continuously during my academic years in preparatory and regular days. Keeping myself updated I am all the time making every possible effort to promote Urdu language and Urdu literature all over the World. My sincere efforts are also to make Urdu very much popular among the young people as well as among the people of all the age groups and, the people belonging to different nationalities and countries. If possible, please e-mail this message to your friends, Urdu poets, writers, journalists, editors, media, educationists, computer experts, senior teachers, students, all the professionals and to all the lovers of Urdu language and literature. You may become the member of my Co-operative Circle which actively participates in literary discussions. I have requested all the poets, writers, educationists, media experts, all the professionals, Urdu loving people, friends, well wishers etc. to keep regular contact with each other so that all of us may work united in every corner of the World to promote Urdu and , to make it more popular everywhere.

A SHORT DESCRIPTION OF TEACHING AND RESEARCH INTEREST

As one of the papers of Urdu (Hons) course, History of Urdu language, required me to read some basic book of Urdu literature and thus motivated an urge to study Urdu Literature. I was thus fascinated by the ways in which languages share their lexicons across the geographical boundaries. The very fact that the different root-words travel all the way from Persian, Arabic, English, Hindi, Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, Baltic, Slavic and finally through Germanic route and come to survive in Urdu encourages me to look beyond and pursue my career in Urdu Language.  I got the proper environment and academic atmosphere to spur and nurture my intellectual appetite in University of Delhi where I did my MA, M.Phil, PhD and two post doctoral researches. The courses and new ways of dealing with the course-content and evaluation system all thrilled me into becoming an academician. Various papers in MA, M. Phil, Ph. D, and post doctoral research in University of Delhi,  that shaped my interest in Urdu language were ‘Research and Critical Study’, ‘North  India as a linguistic Area’, Field-Methods and ‘Grammatical theories and models’. I have been interested in the structure of words and sentences from the early days of my training in Urdu. I worked on several small projects and term-papers during my Masters and M.Phil in University of Delhi. The main focus of my term-papers has always been to examine the complex relationships of words to other words and to sentences at large. The issue of relativity and its relationship with the other grammatical alteration in the sentence, dative subject constructions and its effect on the role of verbal inflection were some of the issues which I tried to solve in Urdu (my mother tongue). While research scholar at University of Delhi, I was selected through an interview to teach history of Urdu to the under graduates doing B. A. at the school of open learning University of Delhi. Such an experience to put into practice what I had learned was very exciting. I thus taught ‘history of Urdu’, ‘Introduction to Urdu Literature’ there for several years. I have had the opportunity to undertake several field-works during MA, M.Phil and PhD research work in the University. I worked on Urdu language during my M. A. in University of Delhi. I was closely associated many projects of Prof. Irteza Karim of University of Delhi, to cross-examine the findings of Prof. Irteza Karim who had claimed the existence of some kentum elements in an Indo-Aryan language called Bangani. After an orientation program, which was followed by an interview, I was selected to assist him in the field for the abovementioned project. The language and its structural complexities inspired me to take another field-oriented paper in my M. Phil and do extensive field-work for few days on Bangani. I submitted a report on ‘The structure of NP in Bangani’ for the course. My PhD work, as it turned out, needed several field-works in order to have varied and intense linguistic data. All these years I have developed a passion to work with the native speakers of different languages and with all necessary field techniques, I have always been able to create a congenial environment for data collection. Later on, at the University of Delhi, where I continued to pursue my PhD, I had the privilege of doing some advanced courses such as political and historical back ground of Urdu, syntax, documentary/descriptive linguistics and psycholinguistics. My research was also largely related to the examination of the complex nature of words and their syntactic environments in which they are patterned to make up sentence and finally the discourse. Though, I had to quit the program as my Research Associate-ship got over after one year, I had the chance to learn the streaks of professionalism in academics. Teaching Urdu as a modern Indian language in the Department of Urdu, enabled me not only to use the techniques and tools of linguistics in my teaching (such as sound-system, structure of the syllable, words and sentences) but also helped me gain a first hand insight into the problems of syntactic constructions such as conjunct verb construction, infinitives and the small clause-construction in Urdu, seen as a modern Indian language from the perspective of the learner. I submitted my PhD in the Dept of Urdu, University of Delhi, and the thesis of Ph. D &M. Phil Dissertation and other collection of Articles are under publication by reputed publishers of New Delhi. I am very happy to report that Prof. Irteza Karim, Head, Department of Urdu has written the foreword for the book. He accepted my request to do this as he had read the manuscript of my book.
I have examined eight different varieties of Urdu-Persian, besides providing an account of nine major languages of India to show how the phenomenon of ‘Grammatical Agreement’ works in these languages. My training as a field-researcher in Urdu helped me to collect and collate the data of eight varieties of Urdu-Persian. The incessant drive to try to find a unified theory for the Urdu language phenomenon by comparing and cross examining the structure of different languages that I learned at various stages of either teaching or learning. The study of language typology helped me to provide a better analysis and examination of the function of agreement phenomenon in typologically similar and genetically related varieties of Urdu-Hindi. I have shown that the varieties of Urdu-Hindi can be classified in three different types on the basis of the agreement system that they display;
A. Languages that have only Subject-Verb agreement.
B. Languages that have both Subject-Verb & Object-Verb agreement on an alternative basis (i.e. the verb agrees with either the subject or the object in different syntactic environment).
C. Languages that have  primarily Subject-Verb agreement, however, other actants (NPs) also find their marking on the verb due to certain pragmatic value or requirements of the language e.g. specificity marking, animacy factor, scale of honorificity and some pattern gap in the system of pronouns etc. I have tried to unify the agreement types (a) & (c) into one system and have termed it as a single system of agreement and have labelled  the agreement type (b) as a dual system of agreement. The motivation for the combining (a) & (c) into one comes from two main factors; (i) there is no change of the syntactic environment of marking the inflection of other actants (NPs) on the verb besides the subject (ii) the languages do not show overt object agreement. With the help of such micro level study of the phenomenon in the varieties of Urdu-Hindi, I have tried to provide a solution to the problem of ‘agreement facts’ in complex predicates of Urdu-Hindi at a macro level which otherwise remains unexplained.
Before joining the Department of Urdu, Kirori Mal College, University of Delhi, I was selected in a reputed research institution .However, I took up the job at University of Delhi, considering the fact that I would be able to finish my post doctoral work within the stipulated time-limit if I work in University of Delhi in general and the Department of Urdu Kirori Mal College in particular. It has provided me a very strong and healthy environment of growth and a good opportunity to further shape my research interest.  I have been teaching several papers of Urdu language & literature since 2000.

A short Description Regarding the Research Related to Doctor and Master of Philosophy
DOTOR OF PHILOSPHY I have done Ph.D. in the History of Urdu classic literature entitled “A critical study of romantic long verse” which is a reliable source of Modern History. Long verse is most popular form of Urdu poetry because of its approach to Modern History. Long poems with social and Philosophical content had also been written during classic period. It was under the Influence of western poetry that poets of renaissance, some writers wrote long poem with content of modern historicity in Urdu in the 2nd half of 19th century. In 20th century the Philosopher poet IQBAL further developed and popularized long poem in Urdu introducing variety of themes in it. Presently the long poem in one of the most representative accounts of Modern History. Most Of the socio-political, Historical, Geographical and Culture problems of this period had been dealt with in long poems. Various new experiments of technique and expression had also been attempted by the writers in this form. Thus the long poem in Urdu has been greatly enriched in contents and artist expression. Classicism and Romanticism are among the most often used yet extremely perplexing terms of literary jargons. The terms denote two tendencies not only different but directly opposed to each other and conspicuously dissembled in work spread over different periods of history of a literature.  For example in English literature,  the age of Dryden and his poems i.e. from 1660 up to the French revolution (1787) is called the age of classicism and the period from French revolution up to the middle of the 19th century is known as the age of Romanticism. The terms, are, therefore, best understood when discussed and analyzed in contrast with each other. It is interesting to have a look into the etymology of Classicism and Romanticism. The usage of classical word in literary field was first of all quoted by Aulis Gillis, a Roman grammarian of 2nd century A.D. Its Latin equivalent classiest pointed to a person’s belonging to highest income group, membership of which was obviously bound to be quite limited. Therefore, classical writer was the one who, by dint of excellence of literary style, wrote for the selected few. Towards 6th century classis’ was also used for the student attending a class in school and in effect, for his text books ‘which were essentially to be of very high merit. Thus in both of these situation classis’ acquired identical import referring to a literary work deemed generally excellent, of sup rime and recognized merit  and of value as a model , the term was applied, at the same time to collection of high quality work though divergent in form and content. However, emphasis on the standard and greatness brought in high estimation the ancient Greek and Roman literary works which were considered worthy of imitation –both in form and subjects and therefore considered classics.’ But such work belonged to an era bygone and the term eventually came to be used for an age of highest poetic achievement. It is in this sense that age of Dante in Italian literature or age of John Dryden and Alexander Pole in English literature is known as age of classics. But the ‘excellence’ of the age of Pole and Dryden rest mainly on conscious, even slavish, imitation both of ancient Greek and Roman writers such as Homer and Virgil and of formulations laid down by ancient critics like Aristotle and Horace. This age has, thereby, earned the epithets of ‘neo-classical’ or ‘pseudo-classical.’ English classical writers had actually revolted against the enthusistatic and fantastic tendencies of the writer of their preceding age. But these tendencies surfaced and struck more forcefully towards the end of 18th century. The reaction was given the name of Romanticism. The term was introduced by German scholar Frederick Senegal to denote the tendency opposed to classicism. ‘Romantic’ here does not carry the usual meaning of something relating to love. Romantic is derived from ‘Latin Romance of French’ ‘describing something written in vernacular known as romance language and not in Latin, a language of learning. The most popular literary form of the romance language of medieval age was the folk tale of chivalry, composed in prose and war. Famous Robin Hood episodes or ‘the Arabian Nights serial fall in this tradition. These romantic writings were characterized by high flow sentiments, improbability, exaggeration and unreality. So any work displaying such traits and there by appealing to imagination and feeling was, therefore, called ‘Romantic’. Romanticism too, appeared as a revolution, a movement in style and thought with characteristic standing in direct contrast with those of classics. Classicism prefers power of reason to power of emotion as the guiding force for literary creation. Pope said in an essay on Man ‘Reason alone countervails all the other faculties’. This stresses on reason and rationalism was born out of the new concept of the universe working in definite orders. This order under lying the universe and the scientific discoveries could be known and analyzed by calculation, judgment and reason. The classical writers who disliked disorders, eccentricity and extra advantages of their preceding literature wanted to foster the same order in literature by means of the faculty of reason. Romanticism, on the other hand, is a grand leap from reason to emotion. William Wordsworth defined poetry as the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings’. Romanticism is actually, the sincere expression of all the passion and desires, emotions, and aspiration, joys and grief genuinely and strongly felt. As described by George Romanticisms is ‘emotion rather than reason, the heart opposed to head’. The classical mind realized that order in the universe was being generated and governed by definite cosmic principles. It was, therefore, at pains to lay out some enduring and standard law or rules of literature which when properly observed would produce correct and therefore a nice composition. But instead of formulating rules of their own these writers turned to the ancient writers and critics. Alexander pope, the champion of English classicisms advised in ‘Essay on Criticism’: “Learn hence for ancient rules a just Esteem; to copy Nature is to copy them”.
Romanticists, on the contrary, revolted and rebelled against the bondage of rules and customs. Romanticism recognized no law of literature’, it was ‘liberalism of literature’, an intoxicating dreaming. The classical correctness and structural propriety wrought by the conscious intellectual control seemed to be fettering the creative human spirit. Rebellious and revolutionary attitude toward established tradition either in society or in literature is, thus the basis of romantic temper. The inspiration Romanticism got was from folklore and middle Ages instead of classical antiquity. It was expression and not subject matter, which was really important for the classical. Regarding subject matter and expression Pope observed: True wit is Nature to advantages dressed- what oft was thought, but never so well expressed: The subject matter, “what oft was thought” was the familiar’s reality, plain, general, traditional and representative truth. The aim of a writer was only to express it the best possible manner. The instrument for such expression was with and not imagination. Wit with classical, was as Robert Walsenburg observed ‘a truth and lively expression of nature. The skill of the poet lay only in his intellect to comprehend and in his wit to express it in a clear, fresh objective and correct way. The craze for conscious craftsmanship, balance, proportion, correctness and ‘good sense’ result in a tendency toward precise and elegant but formula style in prose and poetry. The writers used inane and artificial phraseology, conventional and hackneyed classical figure, pompous circumlocutions, and decorative imagery and traditionally accepted poetic diction and meter (heroic couplet) well suited of epigrammatic neatness and terseness. With Romantic collectively, my whole research work is comprehensive and reveals my critical ability and originality. It will be must-read for every social scientist who truly wants to understand history on comparative perspectives. This is sine-qua- none of contemporary knowledge of research for a variety of disciplines like Archeological, Economics, Education, Evolutionary sciences, Family studies, Human ecology, Psychology, Sociology, History and Literature in modern world. This is based mainly on result of original research, whether empiricism of theoretical development, mediations and consequences of Modern India history and literature on the analysis of their social nature. This extensive research in Urdu, the history of Urdu literature, comparative history and sociology lend weight to the important and challenging assertions researched by notable addition to the growing literature on culture related to lingua, political and historical problems of sub-national population. That this research will be extremely useful for anyone willing to grapple with the issue raised by theories of multiculturalism. I could say that this research will play key role with reference to modern India history. Its prime significance is to encourage national reconstruction, integration, liberation, respect of other communities and love for the country. Total communal harmony is it reliability and goal. Subject matter gains importance over the expression. So the imagination that was suppressed by the classicists becomes supreme force with the Romanticists. Under the spell of their exuberant intellectual curiosity, their sense of wonder and mystery, strangeness and beauty, adventure and obscurity and their instinct for elemental simplicities of life, sentimental melancholy and divine and unrest, individuality and originality, their imagination wandered from the past to the future, from nature to the heart of man, from old sages to medieval romance, from the world of the awareness, the fever and fret to the world of the unfamiliar, marvelous and super natural, from the common and immediate to the remote in the time and space. In accordance with their natural, common and imaginative subject matter they sought to use a natural, bare and unadorned style. Bondage of poetic diction and meter and even of form was rejected and ‘the language really used by men’ was accepted as the language most suitable for literary creation. The creative craftsmanship by inspiration, satire by lyricism, objectivity by impressionism and wit by humor and pathos, replaced the critical. The contrast between the classic and the Romantic is highlighted also by their divergent approach toward ‘nature’. The ultimate aim the classic writers set forth before them was to copy ‘nature’. But nature, which formed their subject matter, was, on the cosmic level, the well ordered harmonious universe, and on human level it was human nature, the life of man working in accordance with universal, permanent and generalized truths of human behavior reflected especially in the methodized and systematized mannerism of town, clubs, coffee houses and drawing rooms. The concept of nature, however changes drastically with the Romanticists. It is no longer the regular universal order to the ‘natural methodized’. It is external nature, the trees, the hills, the cloud, the oceans, the flowers, the moon, the stars etc. with all their beauty, solemnity and exquisiteness. For Wordsworth nature was almost a religion and he saw a living soul pervading all the objects and nature. Inspired by Rousseau’s slogan of ‘return to nature’ and bewitched by the changing forms and moods of nature the Romantics expressed their emotional response to these natural objects with the strong conviction that there is a close kinship between nature and spirit of man who, with his simplicity, purity, innocence, tenderness and sad sweet music has himself become an subject of nature. Romantic enthusiasts eulogized of purely romantic. Element of both the tendencies are always present in every work of art. That is why, perhaps, that neither classicism nor Romanticisms endured as a moment on the international literary scene. But the contrast drawn in this study is not sheer oversimplification. It is in fact, exegesis of the element, which would serve as tools with any critic or author to determine and define the dimensions of creative process in literature or any other art.
Master of philosophy I have done M. Phil on the history of progressive Urdu novel. I worked on the positive criticism of the progressive novels. I tried to bring out the progressive thoughts, motivation and contribution toward the development of Urdu novel, which is the real approach of modern literary history. In the first year of my M. Phil program, I studied mythology of research and textual criticism. Then I successfully advanced to the second year in which I was assigned a topic entitled “Agha Shair Qazalbash Dehlvi. Through my critical study of the novels- ‘Hire ki- Kani’ Naqli Tajdar, Naheed and Arman, I tried to bring out the progressive thoughts, motivations and author's contribution towards the development of Urdu fiction. The progressive literary movement has played the role of catalyst in bringing new trends in modern Urdu literature. Socio-political, historical and cultural themes have been adopted under the influence of progressive ideology which led to new experiment in realistic depiction of life. Many revealing treaties have come out in the area of forms and techniques due to the influence of progressive literary movement on Urdu poetry and short story. It has been felt that there is hardly any work, which is solely, devoted to the study of Urdu novel in context of progressive movement. Some of the founders of progressive literary movement have written powerful novels and established new trends of critical realism and historical and socialist realism in Urdu, during the last fifty years or so. These trends have taken roots and enriched Urdu fiction in many respects. The progressive ideology has changed the whole scenario of Urdu fiction. Agha Shair Qazalbash Dehlavi and many of his works had been translated into other languages. He himself was a good translator who translated many books particularly Holy Quran into poetic form in Urdu. Agha Shair Qazalbash Dehlvi had also translated Umar Khayyam’s Rubai’s entitled. “Khum Kada-E- Khayyam” into Urdu. He was the one of the top ranking writers in the first decade of 20th century. Agha Shair Qazalbash has to be remembered because he can not to be a forgotten because of his immense contribution to overall development of modern Urdu literature. He lives in us as an experience. Hence, he evokes strong reaction from both his admirers as well as critics. For some he appears as a model of poetic excellence. Others attack him as a demagogue who failed. For some his poetry signifies the tremendous emotive response word can command. Other described it as mere smoke without fire. Undoubtedly his poetry congeals the thrilling experience of a tumultuous age of the thirties and forties, yet it has transcended the confines of the time and space. It lives on and on to evoke strong reaction, years after his death.
In fact every poet, above all, is a mirror not only of his life and times but also of the personalities of his own readers and critics who project their own priorities and prejudices in the interpretation and assessment of the poet concerned. Hence, every significant piece of writing has two authors one who gives it words and the others who give it desirers, meaning and interpretation that is its writer and readers. Poetry (and art) is enjoyed and interpreted differently. He is no exception. He appears differently to different set of readers. His poetry bears ample testimony on each score, for who will deny the heartwarming romanticism. And who can ignore the tremendous power- verse and vigor of his revolutionary couplets, and there are hundreds of them, which congeal unprecedented fire and frenzy of an enslaved nation struggling for freedom. The revolutionary fervor is matched by his almost lyrical depiction of nature. Thus the question arises, which is the real Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlvi, the Romantic, the revolutionary or the nature loving mystic and what type of poetic personality emerges from integration of these diverse aspects. I shall not do commentary here on the comments of various critics, which may take us further away from our main problem which is the identity of Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi.
Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi, was the most significant event in post-Iqbal Urdu poetry Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi, was the most important happening in the entire India sub-continent after Tagore and Nazrulislam. While poetry in general and ghazals in particular was seeking aesthetic appeal in the portrayal of sorrow, pain and self-pity, it was Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi (next only to Iqbal, in different ways) who gave Ghazal a human face. His ghazals though belonging to the early phase, claim distinctive qualities of (a) thematic consistency (b) a very vigorous, even joyful though not vulgar-living. Love is no more morbid and lover no more an object of pity, even his response to pain remains positive, optimistic and normal. And yet his ghazals shed all defeatism and despair. His early ghazals manifest his earnest desire for the radiant extroversion, for ghazals' lyricism and his quest for embodying highly concentrated passion in every word. Both these attempts led to his growing association with the ghazal form of poetry. Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi soon emerged as the champion of Nazm (compact poem). Even though his poems are thematic unities but often show lack of development in any sense of continuity of evolution. Apart from Iqbal, no other poet in Urdu made Nazm such a potent and vigorous vehicle of his poetic expression. For Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi, Nazm was important since it discards mere convention as the mainstay of the poet and remains heavily dependent on the emotions of the poet himself thus necessitating his extrovert interest in the life around. The period was full of such voices. Even though Rabindra Nath Tagore developed a mystical idiom, the revolutionary poetry of Nazrul lslam had shaken the whole continent with it resonance and vitality. For the first time word was emerging as a surcharged explosive. Iqbal utilized it for the same purpose but soon loaded it with philosophical and religious overtones. Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi remained secular and rationalist till the very last breath. True, his philosophical contents was too fragmentary even infantile at times, but his firm adherence to patriotism, humanism never lacked passion. His loyalty to patriotism was total. Apart from Nazrul Islam no other Indian poet could concentrate so much revolutionary fire in the word he used. The first portion of his “Teer-o-Nashter” consisted of fiery poem exhorting people to wage relentless war against enslaving imperialists. The main contribution of Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi then was the zest for the revolutionary crusade for the Indian independence. Fire of anti-imperialism was burning bright. Despite all the zest and devotion to the struggle for political independence. Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi was basically feudal in character. His opposition to the British Raj was at least in the first phase mainly because the Raj was inhuman and posed impediments in the way of “normal” feudal style of living with abundance and ecstasy. In his writing he traces the roots of his anti-British sentiments to a petty incident. Anti-imperialist feelings, which began initially as a result of a emotional attachment to feudal past, was strengthened later on through the poet’s association with the Indian National Congress and later on, with the progressive writers movement. Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi soon found himself in the forefront of the struggle for Indian Independence. He was the poet of revolution. His call for crusade against the slavery evoked wide response and his poetry remains to this day the best embodiment of revolution-and consciousness in India next only to Islam.
In his time Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi for the first time projected the image of the robust, enlightened and librated man eager to lead a full and vigorous life by breaking the inhabitation of petty bigot and Puritans. It must be added that his ideas of revolution was not clearly defined, nor was his view of librated wholesome life entirely above criticism for his feudal past and his fragmented thinking hunted him. Nevertheless his secularism, Nationalism, Patriotism and faith in human fraternity shine through the tangled ruin of his poetry. This brings us to another area of his poetry, romanticism, which covers not only his love poetry but also poems on nature and the scenic beauty. For Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi, natural man is the Ideal being and he is entitled to self –fulfillment through enjoyment of the least things in life including wine, healthy human relationship and full realization of his aesthetic self. The warmth of love and tenderness of nature, intoxicating wine and inebriating beauty all enrich human personality, and hence any institution religious or political which hinders the way to his enrichment remain unnatural, even immoral. He challenges all such joy-killing institutions. He firmly believes that while God willed that the blessing bestowed on his creation be carefully enjoyed, the bigots and narrow-minded clergy of various religious groups willed otherwise and impose their own puritan even Spartan laws of abstinence and piety. Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi loved lyrics and his description of nature finds beautiful expression in some of his poems. To quote only two instances, “Khumkadae Khayyam” is not only a piece of best nature poetry in Urdu but also describes eloquently his concepts of good and evil. This also brings us to the discussion of Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi view of freedom and determinism of men’s action. About the existence of God, Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi may be described as an agnostic but he insists that as all human actions are pre-determined, man can hardly be responsible for the deeds or misdeeds. In his several poems, Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi had pointed out that it is in search of self-realization, that man pursues various activities-one goes to Mosque to offer prayers, while other proceed to bar to drink wine. That same desire leads them to two destinations, thus, rending the very rationale of heaven and hell irrelevant. The word of Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi’s Rubaiyat is extensive. He has successfully employed various techniques of dramatic presentation, romantic depiction and picturesque portrayal, thus setting a new precedent in a genre which had been used by stalwarts like Umar Khayyam in Persian, Anis in Urdu has left a distinctive mark of his personality on the genre.
Any discourse, however brief, on Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi will be incomplete without mentioning his contribution to marsiya writing. Marsiya is used for verifying the events of Karbala and martyrdom of Imam Hussain and his companions and even though great poets like Anis wrote Marsiyas, yet it remained mainly poem of sorrow and agony, and the tragic tales of suffering of the noble soul. Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi gave his Marsiya a tone of heroic defiance of social injustice of self-pity and adding an element of selfless devotion to duty and hence transformed them into a source of inspiration for the crusaders of social justice in the contemporary world, thus making them relevant to the modern times. Last but not the least is his contribution to Urdu prose. He deserves to be remembered as the founder editor of the literary journal “Makhzan” which laid the foundation of enlightened thinking in Urdu along with “Nigar”. His prose, though Persianized and a bit archaic, was undoubtedly distinctive. His prose works shall long be remembered as brilliant pieces of prose. The poetic vocabulary of Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi is richest with parallel only in Sauda, Nazeer and Anis. The variety of his moods and his mastery over words of various shades of meanings with diverse linguistic origins still remains rare. To illustrate the point it will suffice to point out that his poems were written in idiomatic language of Mother India in chaste and feminine colloquial speech while coparative analysis of two pieces of his poetry can very well give us an idea of the variety of his vocabulary. In short Agha Shair Qazlebash Dehlavi is likely to be remembered long, not only in the history of Urdu literature as the poet of revolution and romance but also in the subcontinents as one who has inspired a host of his countrymen and brought to them the message of emancipation and enlightenment.
Master of Arts I have done my M.A in history of Urdu literature with special reference to modern Indian history; I studied in M.A course different literary movements, revolutions, historical developments and Islamic history etc. which are associated with Modern India’s literary history. My specialization is Meer Taqi Meer’s writings, (Syed Amanullah Meer Taqi was the only son of a Sufi saint, Meer Muttaqi. When Meer was a little child, his father looking at his face used to say which this fire is burning within your heart that is reflecting on your face. Sufis are lovers of God and so he thought that it was the fire of love for Allah. Living in a atmosphere of Sufism at a very young age had profound effect on Meer. He did not have many desires for worldly things. While on his death bed, his father instructed Meer to "Adopt the path of love. A life without love is an ordeal and losing one's heart in love is the real art. Though this path is riddled with difficulties, love is what drives the world." This is a philosophy reflected by Meer in most of his works. After his father's death, at the age of 11 years, he was abandoned by the people in whose care he had been left. His elder step-brother also treated him badly. Meer left Agra for Delhi in search of livelihood. Samsamudaula gave him a scholarship of one rupee per day, but this did not continue for long because in 1739, Nadir Shah attacked Delhi in which Samsamudaula was killed. At that time Meer was in Agra. After staying in Agra for few days, Meer again went to Delhi. In Delhi, he stayed in the home of Khan Arzoo, who was the maternal uncle of Meer's step-brother Hafiz Muhammad Hasan. Muhammad Hassan wrote a letter to his uncle criticizing Meer. Soon Meer was homeless and jobless and roaming in the streets aimlessly. After Nadir Shah's carnage there was no charm left in Delhi for the poets, many of them moved to Lucknow. Meer came to Luck now in 1783; Nawab Asafaddaula fixed himRs.200amonthstipend.His early experiences in life and shortness of money though had made a permanent change in his nature and even in the peaceful atmosphere of Luck now he lived a terrible life. Simple things used to make him upset, many times he walked out of the Nawab's court. In 1810 he died in Luck now.  ) who belonged to modern period. His poetry bears ample testimony on each score for who will deny his heartwarming romanticism. Meer Taqi Meer indeed had Goethe’s versatility, his interest, in fact, was far more diversified. But he was a poet at heart and a poet he remained throughout his life. He was a multi-faceted genius-poetry, music, drama, long verse, history, fiction, story, essay, letters, almost all forms of literature were adorned by his pen, and he was by no means a painter. In the sphere of social action religion, social reforms, politics, economics, development, education his contribution was worthy but he was above all a poet –a poet in whom wisdom was combined with poetry. His countrymen reverently called him Khuda-e-Sukhan. The name of Meer Taqi Meer conjures up imagination with a unique vision. The issues of unity, integrity and communal harmony have acquired more relevance today and Meer Taqi Meer is remembered as architect of modern India, savior of the country and torch-bear of nation awakening. Today when the threats to the integrity and solidarity of country have acquired new dimension, nation remembers Meer Taqi Meer who can rightly be described as Iron Man possessed with extra ordinary poetical, political acumen with firm determination. If Mahatma Gandhi can be described as the father of nation Meer Taqi Meer can be described as a father of national integration in no exaggerated terms. It was Meer’s wisdom that brought forth an India united from amongst the hundreds of kingdoms and independent provinces. He was basically a man of action, his philosophy of life many be summed up in the words ‘why not create history rather than waste time writing it’. During the first half of his life when he was pouring out lyrics of exquisite beauty he was laying a stone of western and eastern knowledge. The poetry of Urdu romanticism, the philosophy of enlightenment and positivism, the new science of evolution furnished grist to his intellectual curiosity. The ancient Sanskrit love including the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Mahabharata, Ramayana, the Buddhist literature and the drama and poetry of Kalidas, were the mould which gave form and supplied pabulum to his genius. The song and the verse of medieval vaishnav saints and bhaktas inspired him and modern Urdu literature supplied models from compassion and criticism.
My whole research work is comprehensive and reveals my critical ability and originality. it will be a must- read for every social scientist who truly want to understand history through history. On the global comparative perspective this is the sine-qua none of contemporary knowledge and research from a variety of disciplines like archaeology, economics, education, evolutionary science, family studies, human ecology, psychology, sociology, history and literature. My research will be indispensable for every one seriously concerned about understanding the place of history and literature in modern world. This is based mainly on the result of original research whether empirical or theoretical development, mediation and consequence of modern Indian history and literature on analysis of their social nature. This extensive research in the history of Urdu literature, comparative historical and sociological lend weight to the important and challenging assertion researched by self notable addition to the growing literature on culture related lingua. In context of Politico-historical problems of sub national population, this research will be extremely useful for anyone willing to grapple with the issues raised by theories of multiculturalism. I could say that this research will play key role in encouraging national reconstruction and integration, liberation, respect for other communities and love for the country. Total communal harmony is its reliability and goal. A sensitive mind had revolted against the rigorous of the tradition education, which aimed at mass education and did not bother about where a child inclination really lay. Meer says “In my versification vocabulary and ideas, I yielded myself to the vagaries of untouched fancy which brought castigation upon me from critics who were learned and uproarious laughter from the witty. My ignorance combined with my homeys turned me into a literary outlaw. Meer was a great admirer of the lyric poetry of Wordsworth, Byron, Shelley and Keats. His attempts of getting glimpses of the creation of the European literary giants were however less successful. Dante remained a closed book to him. Hines interested him, but he was “quick-witted” which he did not possess. He had dangerous facility which helped him to guess the meanings so easily. He succeeded however in getting through Heine like a sleepwalker easily crossing unknown paths and he found pleasure. From Goethe as he remarked. “Believe it I found my entrance to the place not like one who has keys for all the doors but as casual visitor who is tolerated in some guest room where he is comfortable but not intimate”. He believes in personal religion. He was free from authority of any damage. Though Meer’s poetic talent was recognized and awarded prestigious praises for literature and persons like Yeast, Rolland, Wells and Bernard Shaw were great votaries of his poetry and maintained correspondence with him. Initially he was not understood in his homeland. There were critics who found his poetry highly metaphysical. Meer lived at a time of fast developing crisis. He saw a new world beyond the present travail and his intimate experience gave to him a world of infinite joy and happiness. The duality of experience inspired Meer’s poetry; for him religion consisted in the intense yearning of a soul for union with the divine for realizing the God within. He says, “The feeling which I always had with a deep satisfaction of personality that flowed with my nature through livings channel of communication from all sides”. Meer did not believe in the mechanized view of “Samsara” the cycle of births and deaths. According to him there could be no continuity of desires, passions, wealth and name in any future life, no chance of completing one’s life unfinished task in the life hereafter, no persistence after death for death closes the account of his life. He said, “I shall not come to them with my claim of immortality”. The only survival for him was rebirth in God through love. He condemned the caste system and its basic concept of inequality of man. He repudiated the idea that the material world was a square and life a journey through the value of pain i.e. sorrows. He disapproved of the ascetical view of life and the belief that men’s perfection can be achieved through resuscitation. Both through his powerfully moving verse and persuasive prose, he taught his countrymen to be courageous, self reliant, free and worthy of the personality which they bore as men. He emphasized certain basic truth which man may ignore only at their peril. His genius enriched whatever it touched like the sun; he shed light and warmth on his age and vitalized the material and moral soil of his land. He revealed unknown horizons of thoughts and dismantled the arch that divides the east from the west. Meer was a great educationist; he wanted to build an institution, which encouraged free inquiry into knowledge. He was particularly aware of the need for a revolutionized primary education. His efforts were crowned with success on a large scale and education institutions at different places were established. Where scholars from all lands could pursue their study. Meer was observed by rhythm in poetry, in art and in music. Different libraries and academies have large collections of his work and contribution, which are uncountable.
India, the land of ancient culture and civilization holds a comprehensive, extraordinary and unique place in context to peace. Thousands of years ago the message of peace conveyed by this country had a deep impact on the entire world. The main reason behind this influence is the approach towards peace, which has directly or indirectly been built by contribution of knowledge based on real experience. It may be clarified by the work and contribution of Khuda-e-Sukhan Meer Taqi Meer. Generally peace is termed as a condition that is opposite to conflict, struggle, war or violence. As a scholar says it is symbolic of an atmosphere free from conflict, struggle, in the same way another scholar believes, peace is generally, negatively conceived as absence of war and struggle in other words, peace means absence of actual violence. All this, even then, does not express the complete meaning of peace. This is true that there is absence of conflict, struggle, war or violence all this even then does not express the complete meaning of peace. This is true that there should be absence of conflict, struggle, war or violence but co-operation and harmony is essential, that too, form inner core of heart so that even in general state man’s heart is at peace and he may realize peace in thoughts and deed and harmony are imbedded in the poetry of Meer. I mean to say that meaning of peace, in general condition is fulfilled only when it exists in man’s heart in his daily practice or action and thoughts. In the words of Vinoba Bhave: By peace or shanti do not mean something static or the perpetuation of the status quo. Shanti means something dynamic, something’s that develops the force of the individual, which develops the dynamic strength of the people to a degree that will enable them to meet any situation. Mahatma Gandhi accepting it as a positive value concept in morality and ethics and proclaims that the impulse behind Shanti is a desire for spiritual contentment, an impulse free from the desire for the enjoyment and egoism that is why he has laid emphasis an realization of the feeling of brotherhood and has desired that a man should identify himself not only with all existing life on earth and this identification is the symbol of harmony. Just we have discussed that in all branches of Meer Taqi Meer poetry it is proclaimed that ‘man’ is the center of the deed and on of the basis of the same he gets results whether he is good or bad. He is superior among all living beings and occupies the most important place. It is expected from man that keeping his existence safe he should proceed toward all round development. It is also expected from him that he should attain the real aim of his life. How should he do this? The profounder of Indian philosophy have guided him from time to time in this regard. On the basis of their experience that they gained through knowledge and deeds. Harmony and other values are supplementary to non-violence. Whether it is forbearance or tolerance, the principal value of Islamic philosophy or the (compassion) a value established by Meer Taqi Meer have been supplementary to non-violence and in this way they all proved to be the best, effective and strong base for harmony. And why it would not be so? After all the aim of all philosophies is peace. Today when we talk about world peace we feel that it will not be possible unless each and everyone gets equal opportunities for his/her progress or unless everyone is sure of fulfillment of his/her basic needs. Peace is not possible unless everyone has liberty of self expression, or it is just a dream if each and everyone are not accorded freedom, justice and rights. I would like to clarify that all above-mentioned values supplementary to non-violence, were established for the reason that everyone could easily be brought under the circumference of equality, freedom, justice and rights including the rights of self-expression i.e. without exercising any force or without inflicting/using any violence. Not only this goodness like equal respect for every one’s faith and complete absence of fundamentalism and unity of mankind etc. were propounded by the leading figures of the society through above values. From time to time Meer Taqi Meer also shared their experience with people so that he may be inspired by it. These values are as important today as it was in the past or during the time of their establishment. Even today if we inculcate these values in our lives, according to our circumstances and need we can create a good atmosphere of harmony and march forward in the direction of peace.
In fact for thousand years Indians firmly believed and experienced that non-violence is an immortal value permanently present in human nature. It is not only an essential condition for existence but also for all round development of human beings and to reach the real the goal i.e. peace. That is why the profounder made relentless efforts to base the day-to-day activities of people upon non-violence and its supplementary values. In the task they not only achieved the expected they were able to set such examples, knowledge of which surprises us even today. In those days the means of transport and communication were very limited and underdeveloped. But they were able to communicate the message of ahimsa in a simple way, along with Indians, to inhabitants of different parts of the world. But as has been stated they did so by creating a conducive atmosphere as per the demand of times and country’s circumstances. In this regard we can quote countless examples and if we do so then definitely many volumes can be written. That is why here I shall only quote two great men of all ages. In the time of Mahatma Buddha the state of Indian society had seriously deteriorated. People had started going against the established value system for the safety of existence and progress. They were getting avert to non-violence and positive action. Beside inequality there was exploitation so much so that there was inexpressible extreme of it in human acts. At such a time Gautama Buddha propagated the value of Karuna that is compassion, keeping in view the circumstances and need of time. He set examples for all people, big and small, by his own behavior in life and on the basis of his conduct, was able to launch an effective and strong movement to reform the society. From the point of view of that time, compassion was the best expression of non-violence and a good mean of establishing peace. As a result after individual awakening people of India could march in the right direction collectively. It was due to above movement that polluted religions, political and economic sphere also advanced towards righteous goal in a proper way. Later the message of compassion crossed the territorial limits of India and it was able to show the path of pace to other countries of the world. The other examples in the previous century, i.e. 20th century is that several Urdu poetry writers gained knowledge from the experience of first half of their life and came to the conclusion that Indian people, tolerating the curse of dependence and injustice, can achieve freedom over mighty imperialism of the world through the means of non-violence. They can perpetuate the path of peace for themselves and can also show a unique and significant way to the whole of universe. They led the Indians for about 25 years between 1917 and 1947 through various non-violent satyagrahas, their creative writings worked to wake up their slumbering consciousness, infused a new life into them and ultimately in 1947 India became free from British Imperialism. This was not an ordinary event in world’s history. But all this became possible because Meer developed the concept of non-violence according to the conditions and needs of his life. Meer astonished the world by making experiments through non-violence at different occasions, with a firm belief that ahimsa is the oldest, greatest, perpetual and an active value connected integrally with truth. After this people of a number of countries could learn a lesson by his unique non-violence way. His path proved to be a source of liberation for them in this context we can quote the Afro-America campaigns for civil rights of 1955, 1961, 1963 and 1964. Not only this, we can mention here about EDSA revolution in Philippines in year 1986 in this context. Some people are of the opinion that the view of non-violence in context to peace is not very effective. In this regard they also quote the examples Buddha and Gandhi but such people should remember that neither the concept of non-violence of Buddha nor of Gandhi, or generally of India is that to surrender before injustice or to become coward. Or one who bends before injustice can never be a possessor of Ahimsa. Along with Buddha and Gandhi, the general Indian view of non-violence is to establish its concordance with prevalent circumstances and needs. Even then it is certain that non-violence is the only pathway to peace. This is the experience of India. In today’s scenario or series of events at national-international level, how can non-violence be effective? How peace will be restored by non-violent means? In this regard I would again clarify that to bow down before injustice of the unjust, to tolerate tyranny of the tyrants is not the outlook of Indian non-violence after all. How can then peace be established in a state of injustice and tyranny? Of course, Indian view is to fight against injustice and atrocities through non-violence means as far as they are possible because there is no other alternative to that. In the words of Lord Krishna, we should give up violence and adopt the non-violent way, if this is not possible, if there is no hope, let it be eradicated by least possible violent means and thus peace be established, and even while doing so the inner feeling should be non-violent. We should not have ill feelings towards unjust and tyrants. Indian non-violence is complete in its meaning and aims that it remains in our hearts, words and deeds. This indeed is Meer Taqi Meer poetry’s viewpoint. Also this Indian philosophy is imbedded in the writing’s of Meer Taqi Meer which was topic of my study as a special paper in M.A. final year.
Bachelor of Arts Honurs, I have done B.A (H) in Urdu literature with special reference to Islamic history, which is main source of medieval Indian history. The Arabic word Islam means peace and total submission to the God’s will. The religion of Islam is the complete acceptance of the teaching and guidance of God as revealed to his Prophet Mohammad. Muslim is one who believes in one God and strives for total reorganization of his life according to this revealed guidance and the sayings of the Prophet. He also works for building a human society on the same basis and defends its spirits. The word Allah is the proper name of God in Arabic. It is a unique term because it has no plural or feminine gender. In the seventh century A.D. the holy prophet Mohammad (s.a) laid the foundation of Islam in a predominantly pagan Arabia within a century of his death in 632 A.D. his followers spread the message of Islam to the other parts of world stretching from Spain to the borders of China. The art and sciences flourished in the Arab world; particularly between 900-1200 A.D. Arabs not only made significant contributions to science, but also absorbed scientific ideas from many different parts of their great empires, particularly from Greeks and Persians. In this way Islamic thinkers helped to transmit the ideas of the ancient world to medieval Europeans, without them much of this information would have been lost. The tragedy of Karbala cannot be fully comprehended if we over look the question whether the prophet of the Islam (saw) appointed any successor or left the world without a well-defined strategy to run the day-to-day affairs of the community. There are two opinions about this. Majority of Muslims belief that the prophet (saw) did not leave any specific instruction on this issue and left it for the people to decide who would succeed the prophet. While on the other hand, a group of Muslims believes that prophet did appoint his cousin and the son- in- law Ali ibne Abutalib as his successor at Ghadr-e- Khum. But due to certain political compulsions, Ali was sidelined by the senior companions of the prophet on the plea that the people would not like the prophethood and the caliphate to be combined in the clan of Banihashim. As a result Abubakar was made the first caliph of the Umma immediately after the demise of the holy prophet. Abu bakar reigned for two years, and on his deathbed he explicitly appointed Umar bin al Khatab as his successor. Abu bakar called Uthman bin Affan and Abdur Rehman bin awfand dictated the testament. Ours is perhaps the only country in the world, which has welcomed, preserved, nurtured, protected and absorbed all religions that are practiced and followed by the human race. Many societies in different parts of the world look towards India for guidance to sustain their minds and spirits. Today, while striving to full fill our material needs, we have not forgotten the teachings of our great religious saints and the respect for each other’s belief. Our strength lies in our people. Our feeling of oneness, our concern for one another and our tradition of co-existence, reinforced by our firm beliefs. India has the proud of having one of the largest populations of Muslims in the world, Islam is woven into our life and culture for centuries in a manner that is unique and unparalleled. Today, as is our tradition, people of all faiths have gathered here to recall the life and teaching of our one of the greatest personalities in human history- Hazrat Mohammad, peace be upon him (P.B.U.H). Hazarat Mohammad did not come to this world as a prophet for any particular country or community or section of people- he was sent by God as a mercy for all creature-for all mankind. The glories and true believes in Islam do not lie in mere warble perfections. There has to be an overall change in the heart and mind of man for acts of benevolence and good will towards fellow-beings particularly those who need care and protection. The Quran and the sunnah of the holy prophet (saw) form the twin primal sources from where alone to draw inspiration and seek guidance and evolve a standard of moral conduct which is permanent, universal and all pervasive in the affairs of mankind in every age and times. It is pure, serene and unstained by any selfishness and bigotry of race and nation-worship.
Conclusions: Overall my whole research works is comprehensive and reveals my critical ability and originality. It will be a must read for every social scientist that truly wants to understand history through Urdu and Urdu through history. On the global cooperative perspective this is the sine-qua none of contemporary knowledge and research for a variety of disciplines like archeology, economics, education, evolutionary science, family studies, human ecology, sociology, history and literature. My research is indispensable for any one seriously concerned about- understanding the place of history and literature in modern world, this being based mainly on the results of a original research; whether empirical or theoretical development in modern Indian history and literature on the analysis of the social nature. This extensive research in Urdu, the history of Urdu literature, comparative history and sociology lend weight to the important and challenging assertions based on research of growing literature on culture and related lingua. Politico-historical problems of sub-national population that this research will be extremely useful for anyone willing to grapple with the issues raised by theories of multiculturalism. I could say that this research will also play key role in appreciation of modern Indian history. Its prime importance encourages national reconstructions, integration, liberation, and respect for other communities and love for country. Total communal harmony is its primary aim and goal.

A SHORT DESCRIPTION REGARDING CONTRIBUTION TO THE CORPORATE LIFE OF INSTITUTION
Regarding my contribution to the corporate life of our internationally famed institution, my  humble submission is that I have taught classes regularly and discharged all duties assigned to me by our institution and I have extended full co-operation in the functioning of our college in all respects like participation in different committees constituted by the college. I have tried to contribute to the corporate life of our institution and enhance its standing in the world through my progressive vision and thought. Today's world requires value based education most, which leads to spreading peace, love, national and international integration and awareness in world and I have tried to inculcate these values in our students and community. I have also significantly contributed to knowledge through my creative writings, critical reviews and articles. I have tried to forge in my students the quest for academic excellence since my joining this reputed institution. In every class I have tried to discuss human thoughts, values and philosophy to my students in the light of ancient, medieval and modern India’s different cultures and societies, customs and tradition. I have taught my students to instill in them rational ideas and contribute to building-up a healthy society. I have made efforts to develop my student’s knowledge and awakening towards cherished values of patriotism, peace, love, national and international integrity. I try to present Urdu language through other sources on global level as for example, science, technology, economy, & commerce etc. The use of Urdu language in these fields will contribute to development of Urdu language and be useful for general masses in reference to source of employment.
As an Urdu scholar I have written on different facets of various schools and thoughts in prose and poetry. All together, I am associated with various literary, cultural, social, educational, and academic organizations and educational institutions of higher learning in India & abroad. A Turkish Professor Dr. Ahmet Albayrak in his speech at international conference at Istanbul, Turkey said regarding my work and contribution that, “Dr. Yahya Saba is an eminent and outstanding and well-known scholar, his published work of high quality is significant contribution to knowledge in Urdu. He is actively engaged in research and his top ranking writings are published in several referred journals in India and abroad. He is teaching, researching and guiding scholars for research since so many years he is enriching Urdu language and its scholars through his extraordinary educational knowledge and ability, innovative research and progressive thought. In my view point he is not only ocean of knowledge but also the encyclopedia of human dignity & justice which is the real and rational definition of literature”.

I am significantly contributing to knowledge through my enormous creative writings and I want to develop my student’s knowledge as reference document; my co-operation and contribution will continue to grow throughout my life for propagation of patriotism, peace, love and international integrity. My interest is lies in all fields and disciplines like poetry, philosophy, sociology, English, education and the rest. I am multidimensional and humorous, which provides comprehensive knowledge to students. I want to establish my reputation by my published research work/contribution in Urdu world. I want generate best scholar of Urdu who will hoist the flag of India around the world and they will hold professional and research position in many countries and will serve as research advisors and experts on many bodies and various international commissions. They will be authors of books, they will publish thousands remarkable articles in top ranking referred/professional international journals. Their seminal research will show a guiding light to the modern society whose writings will reflect a progressive approach and imagination. I am looking at the modern and progressive world living in conservative and stagnant society. The great writers of the world, thus, looked at modernity through the medieval window; they also imbibed discipline, talked about social harmony and integrity in the light of teachings of different religions and through their top ranking writings. Their imagination is educative, informative, and scientific in nature. The bottom line of my hard creative and research works, thus, casts an image of harmonious, disciplined, scientific, rational and modernized society based on human dignity & justice. I thoroughly enjoy my academic life with my books. It has opened new vistas of thought and work. My education and books provide me golden opportunity to express and write independently.
God bless our institution which will be a bastion of corporate life, professionalism, academic excellence and I will contribute to achieving this goal to the best of my ability.

Urdu language and literature has a long and colorful history that is inextricably tied to the development of that very language, Urdu, in which it is written. While it tends to be heavily dominated by poetry, the range of expression achieved in the voluminous library of a few major verse forms, especially the Ghazal and Nazm (poetry), has led to its continued development and expansion into other styles of writing, including that of the short story, or Afsana. Urdu literature is principally popular in India and Pakistan. Additionally, it enjoys substantial popularity among South Asian immigrants in North America, Europe and Middle East and usually around the world. It is widely understood in Afghanistan. Urdu is finding interest in North American, European and South Pacific Asian countries primarily through South Asian immigrants.
in the light of my scholarship skill always I am trying to explore  my knowledge and spreading it through teaching and learning with the vision “Protection and promotion of aesthetical and cultural values of Urdu Language, Literature and its historical consciousness” and with the mission “to develop it as a combination of archives, museum, library, cultural research institution and wishes to be perceived as an authority in Urdu Language, Literature & Culture both in terms of collection and conservation”.
Full time I am entail in teaching, learning and writing  I have written lot of articles which are based on Urdu language and literature but approaches are interdisciplinary (few articles and books) Electronic Publications link are given below I will be happy if you will made a rational comment.
