محمد اسلم تاب

تاب(۱۹۲۹ء ) کا اصل نام محمد اسلم ہے۔ لیکن ان کی پہچان تابؔ اسلم کے نام سے ہے ۔آپ سیالکوٹ میں پیدا ہوئے۔ ۱۹۴۸ء میں محکمہ برقیات میں ملازم ہو گئے۔ ۱۹۴۹ء میں ان کی پہلی نظم ’’ادب لطیف‘‘میں مرزا ادیب نے شامل کی۔ تابؔ نے شاعری کا آغاز سکول کے زمانے سے ہی کر دیا تھا۔ مقامی ادبی تنظیموں اور مشاعروں میں باقاعدگی سے ایک سامع کی حیثیت سے شرکت کرتے تھے۔(۷۶۴)تابؔ کے ابتدائی کلام میں سادگی اور معصومیت نظر آتی ہے۔ ان کا شعری کلام ’’فردوس ادب‘‘، ’’اوراق‘‘،’’افکار‘‘،’’لیل و نہار‘‘،’’امروز‘‘، ’’مشرق‘‘،’’لاہور‘‘،’’رابطہ‘‘،’’کراچی‘‘،’’ادب لطیف‘‘،’’ادبی دنیا‘‘،’’ہمایوں‘‘،’’نیرنگ خیال‘‘،’’فنون‘‘، ’’ساقی‘‘کراچی اور ’’ید بیضا‘‘سیالکوٹ میں شائع ہوتارہا۔ تابؔ جگر مراد آبادی کے ساتھ سیالکوٹ کے مشاعروں میں شرکت کرتے تھے۔ ۱۹۶۰ء میں ’’بزمِ فکر و فن‘‘ ایک ادبی تنظیم کے تاب سیکرٹری مقرر ہوئے۔ ۱۹۶۴ء میں تابؔ نے سیالکوٹ میں ’’حلقہ اربابِ ذوق‘‘ نے نام سے ایک انجمن قائم کی جس کے کئی سال تابؔ سیکرٹری رہے۔(۷۶۵) تاب کا پہلا شعری مجموعہ ’’زخمِ وفا‘‘ ۱۹۷۲ء کو مکتبہ عالیہ لاہورنے شائع کیا۔ دوسرا شعری مجموعہ’’نقشِ آب‘‘ ۱۹۷۵ء کو مکتبہ عالیہ نے طبع کیا۔ تیسرا شعری مجموعہ ’’سراب جاں‘‘ بنگش بک ڈپو لاہور نے ۱۹۹۵ء میں شائع کیا۔ چوتھا شعری مجموعہ ’’تیرے یاد کے سارے موسم‘‘ الحمد پبلی کیشنز لاہور نے ۲۰۰۱ء میں طبع کیا۔ تابؔ اسلم کا پانچواں شعری مجموعہ’’درد تیرے فراق کے ‘‘ نام سے زیر تکمیل ہے۔

تاب نے۱۹۴۹ء میں اپنی شاعری کی ابتدا کی تو ان کی زیادہ توجہ نظم کی طرف تھی ۔انھوں نے کم وبیش ہر موضوع پر نظم تحریر کی۔ بعد میں ان کا غالب رجحان غزل کی طرف رہا۔ آج بھی وہ غزل لکھ رہے ہیں مگر کہیں کہیں نظم بھی لکھتے...

Curriculum Overload at College level: Probing its Repercussions on EFL Learners and Academics

English language is considered the core of success in Pakistani education system. The most important task of English teachers at college level in Pakistan is to develop competence and better understanding of English language in students. However, curriculum overload is the biggest hurdle in enhancing language proficiency because it keeps teachers and students under pressure. J.B McDonald elucidates curriculum as a fount of quality teaching and better learning experience for students by identifying an apt syllabus and assessing their learning outcomes. This paper looks into the causes and consequences of curriculum overload on English teachers at college level in particular and on students in general. This study helps in understanding the issue through teachers and students’ point of view. Data were collected through questionnaires based on close and open-ended questions. These questionnaires were filled by the English teachers and students of public and private colleges of Faisalabad city. Macdonald's Model has been adapted to understand the role of curriculum in education. He takes curriculum as a social and cognitive system for proper planning and instruction in academia. This study recommends certain measures to overcome the overload of curriculum on teachers and students. It will open new vistas of research, as less work has been done in this regard, particularly at college level.

Geophysical Characterization of Late Quaternary Basin Deposits and Hydrogeophysical Modelling of Lakki Marwat and Domail Plains, Khyber Pakhutunkhwa, Pakistan

The understanding of depositional setting, the aquifer properties and the groundwater flow within an intermontane basinis of great significance for groundwater abstraction and monitoring. Among different intermontane basins developed in northwestern Himalaya, Pakistan, the Bannu Basin is very important and is filled with Quaternary sediments. The electrical resistivity data was acquired, processed and interpreted in two separate plains of the Bannu Basin, i.e. the Lakki Marwat Plain and the Domail Plain. The Domail Plain lies in the eastern section of the Bannu Basin whereas the Lakki Marwat Plain is located in the western half. Through a combination of geostatistical analysis, geophysical inversion and visualization techniques it is possible to re-model and visualizes the single dimension resistivity data into 2D and 3D spaces. Variogram models are utilized to extend the interpretation of the data and to distinguish individual lithological units, as well as the occurrence of saline water within the subsurface. As such the alluvial system of the intermontane basin has formed during episodes of local tectonic activity with fluvial erosion and deposition yielding coarse sediments with characteristically high electrical resistivities near to the mountain ranges and finer sediments of medium to low electrical resistivities towards the basin center. The regional and local tectonic activity has caused a considerable amount of faulting in the rocks as well as depressions which over time, have been filled with clay-silt sediments typical of lacustrine and flood plain environments. Streams arising in the adjacent mountains have eroded these sediments leaving gravel–sand deposits in channels. It is concluded that these sediments have been deposited in several different depositional settings including prograding fan shaped bodies, flood plains, sandy plain and lacustrine deposits. The depositional setting of the sediments influences the groundwater flow movements within the plains. The work was further extended to estimate the aquifer properties utilizing vertical electrical sounding (VES) and pumping test data sets acquired in the Lakki Marwat and Domail Plains of Bannu basin. The sediments in the alluvial fan zones are characterized by low gamma ray values which suggest low levels of fine sediments. This is in contrast to the sandy plain and lacustrine zones where higher gamma ray values suggest higher contents of the finer material. The alluvial fan zones have the maximum transmissivity in the area, while the sandy plain and lacustrine zones exhibit very low transmissivities. This indicates a higher concentration of finer material within the sandy plain and lacustrine zones with the absence of the recharge boundaries, thus reducing the effective water transmission. The steady state groundwater flow pattern roughly follows the resistivity patterns within the aquifer system and generally flow towards the Gambila River within the Lakki Marwat Plain. The water flow is regular and uniform within the higher resistivity zones, whereas the flow patterns in the lower resistivity zone representing the lacustrine environment is generally retarded. The water table has a steady rise in the lacustrine zone due to the less transmission of water in the lacustrine zone. The correlation between resistivity zones and the groundwater flow in Domail Plain is difficult to establish, because a considerable portion of the subsurface has been masked by saline water. In this plain groundwater flows steadily towards the Kurram River roughly follow the topography of the plain. The regional trends in the depositional systems in conjunction with the groundwater flow patterns identify the prospective groundwater development zones within the subsurface. The prospective zones identified within the basin when evaluated further would help in management of the important groundwater resource within the region. The regional scale interpretation of seismic, well logs and electrical resistivity data sets highlight the tectonic activity in the region resulted in the formation of northwestern Himalayan fold and thrust belt and the associated intermontane basins.
