سر فخر الدین

سرفخرالدین
۱۹؍ جون ۱۹۳۳؁ء کی صبح کو مشرقی ہند کے مرکزی شہر پٹنہ کے جسم سے روح نے مفارفت کی، سرفخرالدین وزیر تعلیمات جو وہاں کے سب سے زیادہ ہر دلعزیز مسلمان تھے، ۶۵ برس کی عمر میں وفات پائی، ان چند مہینوں کے اندر اس شہر کے وہ پرانے نئے تعلیمیافتہ اصحاب جو وہاں کی مجلس کی شمعِ بزم افروز تھے، ایک ایک کرکے رخصت ہوگئے، سر علی امام کی وفات پر سیاسی تدبر و قابلیت کا ماتم ہوا، حسن امام کے مرنے پر قانون دانی کا نوحہ پڑھاگیا، لیکن سرفخرالدین کی رحلت پر انسانیت اور اس کی شرافت کا ماتم ہے۔
مرحوم نیک دل، متواضع، فیاض، مشرقیت پسند اور دیندار تھے، اسی لئے انکی وفات پر پورے صوبہ نے ماتم کیا، شہر کے سب سے بڑے میدان میں پورے شہر نے نماز جنازہ پڑھی اور صوبہ کے سب سے مقدس مقام پھلواری شریف میں اپنے مرشدین کے مقبرہ میں جگہ پائی، اﷲ تعالیٰ مرحوم کی روح پر اپنی مغفرت کے پھول برسائے۔
(سید سلیمان ندوی،جولائی ۱۹۳۳ء)

 

5 The Gambia's NYSS Partnership with the International Organization for Migration (IOM)

The paper examines the dynamics of The Gambian National Youth Service Scheme (NYSS) founded in 1996 through the efforts of Nigeria’s National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Scheme. Though modeled after the NYSC, it has ventured into things NYSC has not. One of these was its most recent partnership with the IOM to curb recurrent illicit migration of The Gambian youths. The questions are, has this aspect of Nigeria-The Gambia history been documented? Has Nigerian Scheme gone into partnership with the IOM in the enterprise like The Gambian counterpart? Since its establishment, how many times has NYSC adjusted to changing realities? In what theoretical contexts could one frame the argument of the NYSS/ IOM partnership and what lessons does that holds for NYSC and similar youths’ services in Africa in the century? In addressing the problem, the paper adopts the qualitative method of historical research and gleans on evidence from diverse sources. It foregrounds its argument on the ideas of the National Youth Service as “Moral Equivalent of War”, “Service- Learning” and “A Way of Strengthening Ties among the People of the World” espoused by William James, John Dewey, and Rosenstock-Huessy. It concludes by charging NYSC and similar services to adjust to meet the current challenges of African youth and society

Population Based Case-Control Asthma Association Studies of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in Chromosome 17 Potential Genomic Regions

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on 17q21 are known to be associated with asthma disease in multiple populations. This study was designed to know whether this region is associated with asthma in Lahore region population or not. A total of 200 asthma patients and 100 healthy controls were enrolled from different hospitals of Lahore, Pakistan. Twenty five SNPs from chromosomal region 17q21 were selected for analysis in cases and controls by single base extension method and capillary based genetic analyzers. Associations with asthma were analyzed using basic allelic model, genotypic model and results were adjusted for various cofactors by logistic regression analysis using PLINK v1.9. Pair wise Linkage disequilibrium among the SNPs was analyzed and LD map from healthy controls was constructed using Haploview software. Five of the SNPs (rs3816470, rs1011082, rs6503525 rs11078928 and rs1008723) are suggestive of quite significant association with asthma under genotypic model. Five of the remaining SNPs (rs2290400, rs12603332, rs4065275, rs12603332and rs3894194) showed significant associations in the presence of cofactors like gender, smoke exposure in early years and urban or rural environment. Haplotype “TTGTACC” for rs11078928, rs2290400, rs1008723, rs7219923, rs4065275, rs12603332 and rs4795405, appears to be a significant risk factor for predisposition to asthma. The association of genomic region 17q21 with asthma in Lahori population is reported in this study.
