نواب حمیداﷲ خاں

نواب حمیداﷲ خاں
گزشتہ مہینے نواب حمید اﷲ خاں مرحوم کے انتقال کی خبر اس وقت ملی جب شذرات کی کاپی جم چکی تھی، اس لیے معارف اس حادثہ پر اپنے تاثرات کا اظہار نہ کرسکا، نواب صاحب مرحوم اپنے اوصاف و خصوصیات میں دوسرے والیان ریاست سے بہت مختلف تھے، ان میں دین و دنیا کی بہت سی خوبیاں جمع تھی، فہم و فراست اور تدبیر و سیاست میں وہ ہندوستان کے ممتاز مدبروں میں تھے، اور ہر طبقہ میں بڑی، عزت و وقعت کی نظر سے دیکھے جاتے تھے، مذہبی اعتبار سے عملاً دیندار تھے، والیان ملک میں اس زمانہ میں وہ تنہا حافظ قرآن تھے، حج و زیارت کے شرف سے مشرف ہوئے تھے، ان کی تعلیم و تربیت عام شہزادوں کے برعکس بڑی سادگی سے ہوئی تھی اور انھوں نے بغیر کسی امتیاز کے علی گڑھ کالج میں عام طلبہ کی طرح تعلیم پائی تھی، جس کا اثر بعد میں ان کی زندگی پر رہا چنانچہ ان کے یہاں درباری آداب و تکلفات نہ تھے اور ہر شخص سے عام انسانوں کی طرح ملتے جلتے تھے۔
نواب صدیق حسن خاں مرحوم کے اثر سے ریاست بھوپال میں اس زمانہ میں بھی مذہب کے بڑے اثرات تھے جس سے دین و ملت کو بڑا فائدہ پہنچا مسلمانوں کا کوئی دینی و تعلیمی ادارہ اس ریاست کے فیض سے محروم نہ تھا، یہ وراثت نواب حمید اﷲ خاں کے حصہ میں بھی آئی تھی بلکہ ان کی صحیح تعلیم و تربیت نے ان خیالات میں اور زیادہ جلا پیدا کردی تھی، اور انھوں نے اپنے دور حکومت میں بہت سی اصلاحات کیں، وہ ایک عرصہ تک مسلم یونیورسٹی کے چانسلر بھی رہے تھے، دارالمصنفین بھی ریاست بھوپال کے ابرکرم کا ممنون تھا، بلکہ اس کا قیام ہی نواب سلطان جہاں بیگم مرحومہ کی فیاضی...

Assessment of Blood Glucose and Calcium Concentrations Among healthy female volunteers Blood glucose & calcium in females

Abstract: Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia are associated with a number of complications including kidney damage, neurological damage, cardiovascular damage,  damage to the retina or damage to feet and legs,  lethargy, impaired mental functioning and irritability. The most abundant mineral in the body is calcium. Its abnormal levels also associated with multiple disorders. Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the blood glucose and calcium levels in healthy female volunteersMethods: A cross sectional study was conducted at the Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore, over a period of 6 months, after obtaining the ethical approval from the The University of Lahore. A total number of 60 females were enrolled through consecutive sampling technique. Females of all age groups were included. All of the females had gone through routine history taking and lab investigations for the assessment of blood glucose an calcium concentrations. Results: In this study out 60 female participants, 33.3% were between ages of 15-30 years, 33.3% were between age of 31-50 years and remaining 33.3% were above 50 years old. All females of age group 15-30 years had normal glucose levels while single case of age group 15-30 years had abnormal calcium level. The results indicated that females of above age 50 years had low calcium and high glucose levels due to poor nutrition and less physical activity. Conclusions: The results of the current study showed that females with increasing age should intake food enriched in calcium and low glucose and adopt a physically active life style to manage normal blood glucose levels.

Cross-District Multiple Indicators of Quality of Life and Well- Being in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa: Determinants, Variations and Future Outlook

Quality of Life (QoL) is a multidimensional concept encompassing many aspects of an individual’s, community’s, and country’s existence and being. It is not just a measure of material resources at their disposal but of other more intangible resources and environments which produce effects which enhance their quality of life. The study attempted to concentrate on the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and look at the Quality of Life and Well-being of individuals in thirteen of its districts representing its major population. It followed an integrative approach to measuring Quality of Life. QoL encompasses not only the material aspects of life like income, employment, housing etc but also the more intangible non-material factors like family, social cohesion, trust etc; influencing it. The method of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to tackle with multidimensionality as well as explain variation in QoL and Well-being. Weighted Factor Score (WFS) were used as an index for ranking districts for QoL and well-being on the basis of social indicators chosen in different domains of life. Both descriptive and multivariate regression analysis was done to estimate the determinants of Quality of Life and Well-being taken as the Overall Experience of Life (OEL). The results show that the majority respondents use public facilities and regard them as good except for public transport. They are mostly not satisfied with their education level and accommodation standards, however, find their health and social life satisfactory. Majority respondents can barely cover their basic expenses, however can just about afford to keep their houses comfortable and have meat or fish weekly and buy new clothes. Most are concerned about their jobs and feel insecure. There is mostly an optimistic response about the future, however they feel their lives are not as they would have wanted them to be and get a sense of belittlement due to their job status or income. However majority say they are not inclined towards corrupt behaviour. There is however a considerable amount of distrust in institutions and political participation is low. Social interaction is healthy as far as close family is concerned. Majority are of the view that people do not follow traffic rules, disregard caring behaviour in public and evade taxes. Majority of the respondents also believe that a good quality of life requires good education, a steady job, standard accommodation, wholesome family life, good health and a fair amount of social life. The districts with high urban disposition top the ranks in quality of life in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, like Peshawar, Mardan, Swat and xii Charsadda, while Bannu, Kohat and Lower Dir fall amongst the bottom districts in terms of quality of life. The rural/urban ranking also follows similar patterns with a few exceptions. There is a need to increase the quality and access of public amenities, opportunities of employment, education and health access, affordable and quality housing, encourage building social networks, transparency in institutions, encouragement of civil society involvement, stricter tax rules and penalties, and lastly an utter need to gear up and equip statistical offices and databases for future research in the area of Quality of Life and Well-being as are presently deficient.
