میں تاں سمجھیا عطر گلاب دا اے

میں تاں سمجھیا عطر گلاب دا اے
ہلکی جئی سی چنی مس ہو گئی
پتلی جئی کمر پئی انج لگے
جیویں کمر اندر کمر کس ہو گئی
دن رات پئے اسیں پکار کردے
عشق وچ ساڈی بس بس ہو گئی
صدقے پاک درود دے شہد مکھی
رس چوس کے پھلاں دا رس ہو گئی
پھل کر دے گئے نیں راہ سارے
ہک وار سی خوشی نال ہس ہو گئی
کئی ورھیاں نشہ نہ اتریا اے
میرے نال سی تھوڑی جئی مس ہو گئی
یار بے پرواہ دی شان اچی
ساڈی قدر ایتھے خس خس ہو گئی
ہک وار مدینے بلا سانوں
گل وس تھیں ہن بے وس ہو گئی

Admissibility of a Video As Evidence in a Court: its Presentation and Probative Value

To general public, all videos are perceived to be true, but they may not have probative value in the Court of law. The undertaken article analyzes the admissibility and probative value of a video presented as evidence before a court in the Criminal Justice System of Pakistan (CJSP). It analyzes the relevant law and diagnoses the problems with the video evidence through the lens of the judgments of Superior Courts. The court of law objectively ascertains that a video presented as evidentiary means bears significant relevance to the fact in question. It must be admissible under the law, and it must be proved to be genuine. To fill up the gap between a “Video” and a “Video Evidence”, there is a process, which is known as video authentication. It determines that the video contents are genuine, authentic, credible, unaltered, untampered and unfabricated. The study discusses various modes of video authentication. Precedents set by superior courts of Pakistan show that convictions have been made once the courts are satisfied with the credibility of video evidence. In the court of law, video evidence is normally presented after the completion of prosecution evidence. The video is played in court and is watched by the presence. But the researcher establishes that such process does not have legal justification. The article suggests that it would be legal and proper for the prosecution to produce the video evidence through the witness, during his evidence, who is either victim, witness, recorded and/or copied the video directly from original source such as C.C.T.V system and that witness would be subjected to cross examination.

The Genetic Basis of Salt Tolerance in Gossypium Hirsutum L.

Development of cotton varieties having good performance for salt-affected soils is one of the prime objectives of the cotton breeding institutions across the country. Thus, the present research work was carried out to find information about the presence of sufficient variability in cotton germplasm at seedling stage as well as at full crop stage. Considering the importance of evolution of salt tolerant varieties, the present study was planned with objectives: (a) to screen out available of cotton germplasm to determining their salt tolerance potential, (b) to Check out the genetical behaviour of F1 cotton genotypes under salt stress, and (c) To find out F1 cotton genotypes having high yield potential than existing cultivars. The cotton germplasm comprising of 50 genotypes was exposed to salinity stress of NaCl @10 and 20 dSm-1 at seedling stage. Large variations were exhibited by all the genotypes for root and shoot length, root and shoot fresh and dry weights. Moderate to high coefficient of variance and high heritability coupled with high genetic advance reflected that improvement in salinity tolerance at seedling stage is possible through selection. Selection index and cluster analysis resulted in 6 tolerant genotypes (NIAB-999, CIM-707, NIAB-78, MNH-93, CIM-446 and CIM-443) and 3 susceptible genotypes (CIM-499, NIAB-111 and S- 12). The line×tester mating design (using 6 tolerant genotypes as lines and 3 susceptible genotypes as tester) was employed to study the inheritance pattern of yield contributing traits (plant height, number of bolls per plant, individual boll weight and seed-cotton yield), fibre quality traits (GOT%, staple length, staple strength, fiber fineness) and ionic concentration traits (Na+, K+ and K+/Na+ ratio) of cotton genotypes exposed to normal (control level) and salinity stress level of NaCl @ 20 dSm-1. Analysis of variance indicated huge variation for all traits studied and it was found that salinity caused severe reduction in all traits except in Na+ and GOT%. High heritability estimated along with moderate to high values of genetic advance for all yield contributing traits suggested that selection may result in considerable improvement of seed-cotton yield under salinity stress. Plant height, number of bolls per plant, individual boll weight GOT%, staple length, staple strength, K+ and K+/Na+ ratio under salinity stress had shown highly significant correlation with seed-cotton yield per plant. Highest direct effects on seed-cotton yield were exhibited by number of bolls per plant and individual boll weight. Additive gene action was exhibited by plant height and number of bolls per plant, Na+, K+ and K+/Na+ ratio under salt stress environment while for individual boll weight, seed-cotton yield and staple length, mixed trend of additive and non-additive gene action were found under salt stress. It was also found that salt tolerant genotypes showed relatively less uptake of Na+ but high uptake of K+ and K+/Na+ ratio under salinity stress. The hybrids NIAB-999× CIM-499 and CIM-707× CIM-499 (on the basis of heterosis and combining ability estimates) were the top 2 hybrids having superior yield and increased salt tolerance under salt stress environment. Combining ability analysis suggested that these above 2 F1 genotypes need to be further progressed through pedigree method of selection.
