-University Life Part 2:

"The Girl who stops"

I am the student of university in 2nd year of Bachelors.

As being friendly with both boys and girls , i have experienced that what they have gone through in this time period of their Uni life. I am highlighting some girls issue which i have seen,heard,solved,observed till now.

-In our society there is still a thought that education for a girl is less important than that of boys , this is the very first thing that stops a girl.

-A girl who passes the entry test and is now entering the university with all thoughts:

1. Parents respect

2. Career plan

3. Future plan

4. People criticism

5. Her own respect

6. Fear of past

7. Fear of environment

8. Fear of new peoples

9. Fear of public speaking

10. And many more (every girl can relate)

With all these thoughts , when a girl enters in a university what she wishes and expect for is that a support from other girls , a homelike environment in hostels, a brother-like love from boys , a parents love from teachers, a respect guarantee from the environment of university but what she gets is :

1. Harassment through eyes:

(You feel insecure when people keep staring at you , no matter what your dressing is , people will stare at you , because they don't have a sister or they don't care about their sisters too)

2. Hooting from students:

(You keep on hearing the vulgar words from everyone because you are good looking , you are beautiful , you are fashionable , you are open-minded , but not everyone sees you with this sight , they will keep on shouting like an animal)

3. Harsh behavior from girls:

(Even the girls will not support you when you will share your problems , they are scared too , they will say you to ignore and you start ignoring and you will be ignoring it till your last day of university and after you another girl will face it ,because you didn't take any action to resolve it only because no-one was there to support you)

4. Insecurities everywhere:

(non secure contacts, anyone reaches you on social media and personal contact and that things keep on growing time by time and till when you are used to it)

5. Trust issues everywhere:

(Its so hard for a girl to trust anyone and share her secrets and problems , even the girls will change their behavior when you tell them about your weakness or problem everyday, how its possible for you to trust a boy , when you dont know that what his real intentions are)

What are the after effects of this in mostly cases are:

1. Depression

2. Studies failure

3. Illness

4. Leaving studies

-Love-life of a girl:

There are 70% chances that a girl or a boy falls in love in this age(16-26) , and another thing which can be a reason of girls construction or destruction , falling in love is not a BAD THING but falling from limits is WORST , a girl faces this and if it goes wrong , her life is almost destroyed after this.

-----------------------------

"What should be the mindset of a girl before entering university" ?

-Strong speaking skills.

-Fearless speaking.

-Should know that there is HARASSMENT CELL and should take full advantage of it.

-Should be clear about her intentions and actions.

-Should be known of her values and priorities.

-Should be open minded and should not care of negativity from people.(If she is sure that she is Right)

-Should respect the opposite gender(and have good observing skills because not everyone is BAD)

-Her first priority should be her Career.

-Away from gender discrimination.

-Positivity and many more.

کیا ہمیں با اختیار محکمہ سماجی بہبود سندھ کی ضرورت ہے؟

سندھ کے تمام اضلاع میں تعلقی سطح پر غیر سرکاری تنظیموں کی سرگرمیوں کی نگرانی کے لئے ایک مناسب طریقہ کار موجودنہیں ہے ، محکمہ سوشل ویلفیئر سندھ کے تمام این جی اوز پر نظر رکھنے میں ناکام رہا تھا کیوں کہ این جی او کی رجسٹریشن کے متعدد ڈپارٹمیٹ ہیں جو بوقت رجسٹریشن کر رہے ہیں۔ وزارت صنعت ، ایس ای سی پی سمیت ایس ڈبلیو ڈی وغیرہ۔ سوشل ویلفیئر کے پاس کسی بھی سماجی کام کرنےاور سماجی مسئلے کا مؤثر طریقے سے مقابلہ کرنے کے لئے

اسٹاف جیسے ورکرز ، بچوں کی دیکھ بھال کے کارکنان ،اور معاونین موجود ہیں۔

اس محکمے کا بنیادی مقصد نچلی سطح پر فلاح فراہم کرنا ہے کیونکہ ان میں بھی صلاحیت موجود ہے۔ تاہم ، رجسٹریشن اتھارٹی کا ابہام ہمیشہ ہی عام لوگوں ، قانون نافذ کرنے والے اداروں اور یہاں تک کہ کنٹرولنگ اتھارٹی کو پریشان کرتا ہے۔ رضاکارانہ ایجنسیوں (رجسٹریشن اینڈ کنٹرول) آرڈیننس -1961 ، انڈسٹریز اینڈ کوآپریٹو سوسائٹی (سوسائٹی رجسٹریشن ایکٹ 1860) کے تحت سماجی بہبود کے محکموں سمیت سندھ حکومت کی مختلف وزارتوں اور محکموں کے ساتھ ہزاروں غیر سرکاری تنظیمیں رجسٹرڈ ہیں۔ ان میں سے بہت سارے کوآپریٹو سوسائٹیوں کے ماتحت ہیں۔ تاہم ، ان کے پاس خیراتی آرگنائزیشن کی سرگرمیوں کی نگرانی کے لئے میکانزم کا کوئی مینڈیٹ نہیں ہے۔ اس کے باوجود ، ان کے پاس معاشرے کے سلوک اور این جی اوز کے کام کی نگرانی کے لئے سوشیالوجی یا سوشل ورک کی ڈگری کے ساتھ مناسب مہارت اور مطلوبہ صلاحیت نہیں ہے۔

اس سے ڈیٹا اکٹھا کرنے میں پریشانی پیدا ہوتی ہے۔ جب انکوائری کی جاتی ہے تو ، غیر سرکاری تنظیمیں اعداد و شمار جمع کرنے سے انکار کردیتی ہیں کیونکہ وہ سوشل ویلفیئر کے ڈومین کے تحت نہیں آتی ہیں اور اس سے ایک ہی وقت میں بہت سارے محکموں سے رجسٹریشن حاصل کرکے کالی بھیڑوں کو چیریٹی فنڈز کا غلط استعمال کرنے کی راہ ہموار ہوتی ہے۔

محکمہ سوشل ویلفیئر کے پاس رضاکارانہ ایجنسیوں کے ایکٹ 1961 اور 1962 کے تحت این جی اوز کی سرگرمیوں کا مشاہدہ کرنے کے لئے ایک مناسب طریقہ کار اور افسران موجود ہیں۔ این جی او کے بہت سارے اہلکار سخت نگرانی کی لہر کے بارے میں جان چکے ہیں اور انہوں نے محکمہ سوشل ویلفیئر کے تحت اپنی تنظیموں کو رجسٹرڈ کروانے کے خلاف فیصلہ کیا ہے۔

اگر وہ محکمہ سوشل ویلفیئر کے ذریعہ اپنی این جی اوز کو رجسٹرڈ کرواتے ہیں تو ، انہیں اپنے متعلقہ محکمہ کے اسسٹنٹ ڈائریکٹر کے دفتر میں ہر سال کے بعد سالانہ آڈٹ رپورٹ ،دو ھزار روپے کی سالانہ تجدید فیس اور عہدیداروں کی انتخابی رپورٹ پیش کرنا ہوگی۔ اس کے علاوہ ، این جی او کے نام سے کی جانے والی تمام سرگرمیوں پر متعلقہ اسسٹنٹ ڈائریکٹر کے ذریعہ کڑی نگرانی کی جائے گی۔ اس طرح کے اقدامات عطیات اور دیگر متعلقہ فنڈز کے غلط استعمال کو روکتے ہیں۔

ان خدشات کی روشنی میں حال ہی میں ، سندھ چیریٹیز رجسٹریشن اینڈ ریگولیشن بل ، 2019 کو 22 نومبر ، 2019 کو سندھ کی صوبائی اسمبلی نے منظور کیا تھا اور 02 دسمبر ، 2019 کو گورنر سندھ نے اس کی منظوری دی تھی۔ اس کے ذریعہ یہ قانون سازی سندھ کے ایکٹ کے بطور شائع ہوا ہے۔

حکومت سندھ نے صوبے میں خیراتی سرگرمیوں کو منظم کرنے کے لئے ایک قانون سازی بل پاس کیا ہے۔ یہ قانون خیراتی اداروں کے پردے کے تحت کام کرتے ہوئے مجرمانہ یا سیاسی سرگرمیوں میں ملوث تنظیموں کے خلاف کارروائی کی قانونی بنیاد فراہم کرے گا۔ سندھ چیریٹیز ایکٹ 2019 خیراتی سرگرمیوں کو باقاعدہ نظر رکھے گا جس میں عطیہ کرنے والوں اور خیراتی اداروں کے لئے چندہ وصول کرنے والے افراد شامل ہیں۔

محکمہ سوشل ویلفیئر کے وزیر ، مشیر یا وزیر اعلی کا معاون خصوصی اس کمیشن کا چیئرپرسن ہوگا اور ان کی عدم موجودگی میں ، یہ وزیر اعلی کے ذریعہ نامزد کوئی دوسرا فرد ہوسکتا ہے جس نے واضح کیا ہے کہ چیریٹیز صرف چیریٹی ایکٹ کے تحت رجسٹرڈ ہوگا۔

صوبائی حکومت محکمہ سوشل ویلفیئر کے اندر سے گریڈ

20 میں درج ایک ڈائریکٹر جنرل کو کمیشن کا ڈائریکٹر جنرل مقرر کرے گی۔ اہلکار کمیشن کے سیکریٹری کی حیثیت سے بھی کام کریں گے۔ انتظامیہ اور فیصلوں کے نفاذ کا ذمہ دار۔ قانون کے مطابق ، کمیشن خیراتی اداروں پر عوام کا اعتماد اور اعتماد برقرار رکھے گا۔ اس سے چیریٹیوں کے فنڈ ریزنگ میں اندراج ، انضباط اور منظوری ہوگی۔

قانون خیراتی تنظیموں ، پرموٹروں اور فنڈ ریزنگ محکموں کو رجسٹر کرنا ضروری بناتا ہے۔ قانون میں بتایا گیا ہے کہ ڈونرز کو اپنی آمدنی کے ذرائع کے بارے میں آگاہ کرنا ہوگا۔ قانون کے تحت سندھ چیریٹی کمیشن اور چیریٹی رجسٹریشن اتھارٹی بھی قائم کیا جائے گا۔ ایکٹ میں یہ بھی تجویز کیا گیا ہے کہ وہ تمام چندہ پچاس ھزار روپے سے زائد بنکوں میں جمع کروائیں۔ اس مسودے میں تجویز کیا گیا ہے کہ ایک خیراتی تنظیم ، ٹرسٹی قانون کی خلاف ورزی پر دس لاکھ تک جرمانہ عائد کرنے کے لئے ذمہ دار ہوگی۔ سندھ چیریٹیز ایکٹ 2019 کے نفاذ کے بعد غیر رجسٹرڈ غیر منافع بخش تنظیموں کے خلاف کارروائی کا آغاز کیا جائے گا۔

ایکٹ میں ، ایک کمیشن تشکیل دینے کا انتظام کیا گیا ہے ، جس کا عنوان ہے ، ‘چیریٹیز ، رجسٹریشن اینڈ ریگولیشن کمیشن’ جس میں 12 ممبر ہوں گے ، جن میں سندھ اسمبلی کے اسپیکر کے ذریعہ نامزد دو ایم پی اے بھی شامل ہیں۔ کمیشن اپنے فرائض سرانجام دے گا ، اپنے اختیارات کا استعمال کرے گا اور مقررہ انداز میں اس کی کارروائی کرے گا۔ چیریٹی تنظیمیں اپنے تمام مالی لین دین اور خیراتی رقم اور عطیات کے بارے میں تفصیلی ریکارڈ رکھنے کے پابند ہوں گی اور کسی بھی کاروبار یا سیاسی مقصد کے لئے استعمال نہیں ہوں گی۔ کسی چیریٹی تنظیم کی تمام مالی اور سماجی سرگرمیوں کی نگرانی کی جائے گی اور سندھ چیریٹی کمیشن قانون کی خلاف ورزی پر چیریٹی کی رجسٹریشن منسوخ کرسکتا ہے۔

DO WE NEED TO EMPOWER SOCIAL WELFARE DEPARTMENT SINDH?

Having a proper mechanism to monitor activities of NGOs and sufficient staff at Taluka level in all the districts of Sindh, Social Welfare Department had failed to keep an eye on all the NGOs of Sindh due to hurdles of many registration authorities such as Industrial Ministry, SECP, SWD, etc. Social has not only office set-up along with Man-power but also social mobilizers such as Auxiliary Workers, Child Care Workers, Assistants to combat any hazardous. The prime aim of this department is to provide welfare at grass root level as they have capability too; however, the ambiguity of registration Authority has always troubled the general public, law enforcement agencies and even the controlling Authority. Thousands of NGOs have been registered with various ministries and departments of the Sindh government, including the departments of social welfare under the Voluntary Agencies (Registration & Control) Ordinance-1961, Industries and Cooperative Societies (Societies Registration Act-1860). Of them, many fall under cooperative societies. However, they do not have mandate for & mechanism to monitor the activities of Charitable Organization; even though, they haven’t proper skills & desired capability with the degrees of Sociology or Social Work to monitor behavior of society & the working of NGOs. This creates trouble in data collection; when enquired, the NGOs deny submitting data because they don’t fall under domain of Social Welfare and it paves the ways for black sheeps to misuse the charity funds by getting registration from many departments at the same time.

The social Welfare Department has a proper mechanism and officers to observe the activities of NGOs under the 1961 and 1962 Act of Voluntary Agencies. Many NGO officials have come to know about the wave of tough vigilance and decided against getting their organisations registered under the social welfare department. If they get their NGOs registered by the department, they will have to submit an annual audit report, the annual renewal fee of Rs2,000 and an election report of office bearers after every two years at the office of the department’s Assistant Director at their concerned Taluka. In addition, all activities carried out under the name of the NGO will be closely monitored by the relevant Assistant Director. Such steps prevent the misuse of donations and other related funds.

In light of these concerns, a good step has been taken recently, The Sindh Charities Registration and Regulation Bill, 2019 had been passed by the Provincial Assembly of Sindh on 22nd November, 2019 and assented to by the Governor of Sindh on 02nd December, 2019 is hereby published as an Act of the Legislature of Sindh.

The Government of Sindh has got passed a legislation bill to regulate charity activities in the province. The law will provide a legal basis for action against the organizations involved in criminal or political activities while operating under the veil of charity. Sindh Charities Act 2019 will regulate charity activities including those donating and those receiving donations for charity.

The minister, adviser or special assistant to the chief minister on Social Welfare Department will be the chairperson of the commission and in his absence, it may be any other person nominated by the CM that has cleared that Charities will only be registered under Charities Act. The provincial government will designate one of the Director-Generals ranked at Grade 20 from within the Social Welfare Department as the director-general of the commission. The deputed official will also work as the secretary of the commission – responsible for the administration and implementation of decisions. According to the law, the commission will maintain public trust and confidence in charities. It will register, regulate, and sanction fundraising of the charities.

The law makes it necessary to register the charity organizations, promoters and the fundraising campaigns. The donors would have to inform about their source of income, the draft of the law suggests. Sindh Charity Commission and Charity Registration Authority will also be established under the law. The draft of the bill also suggests depositing all donations above Rs 50,000 in banks. A charity organization, trustees will be liable to imposition of a fine up to one million over violation of the law, the draft proposes. After enactment of the Sindh Charities Act 2019, action will be launched against unregistered non-profit organizations. In the bill, there is a provision for the creation of a commission, titled, ‘Charities, Registration and Regulation Commission’ which will have 12 members, including two MPAs nominated by the Sindh Assembly speaker. The commission will discharge its functions, exercise its powers and conduct its proceedings in the prescribed manner. The charity organizations will be bound to keep a detailed record of their all financial transactions and the charity amount and donations will not be utilized for any business or political objective. All financial and social activities of a charity organization will be monitored and the Sindh Charity Commission could cancel the registration of a charity over violation of the law.

Coronavirus will not end, This virus is dangerous until vaccine discovered. Virus will remain with us even after treatment. Typhoid, cholera, flu killed millions of people in its time. After cure, coronavirus will be called a common disease like typhoid.

SURVIVE NOW, CRY LATER.

Nations survive in difficulties only when people are

united and ready to support each other.however

unfortunately in Pakistan, we have two classes. A

richest and poorest but rarely we find people in model

class. Approximately 50 percent of the population is

below poverty. Even they can't afford two times meal

a day. So now we are suffering from COVID-19 and we

are not full of resources to maintain our

economy. To overcome COVID-19 we had lockdown in

the whole country but the poor who earn on daily

weges are in difficulty.on the other hand, if we put an

eye on Elite class we get to know that wealth they

have is from corruption by media resources. Many of

Elite class families were not wealthy first but now

they are a billionaire and most of these got into politics

a few years back. gradually they got wealth like bill

gates. Today we get to know from Elite class families

are having NAB cases for the corruption of

billions, money laundering and land acquisition.so I get

frightened that our system has that much flaws or

the whole system I see is my illusion and there

is another system behind us.by which they

are chance for

corruption freely and no one is there to stop them.

Pakistani elite class families are mostly politicians if

we look on there life from beginning till now and try to

figure out which works are done by them that they

are billionaires today. very few in the world know people who are a billionaire in a short

time by talent and

luck. Important thing is rich people in the world

they donate for humanity and participate in

social works and

donate a big amount of there wealth. same thing

happens in Pakistan but by the model class. Elite class

avoid to donate as a fear of getting caught by NAB.

Elite class is very much Stingy in donation only

because of fear to get caught so they can donate

Anonymously and help Pakistan in this difficult time. In

this COVID-19 they can help poor and needy as we are

having lockdown in the country and save the

humanity.

Banning YouTube

On Wednesday the supreme court of Pakistan has revealed to ban the YouTube. This decision will be proved as the worst decision ever taken by the SCP. YouTube has always been a helping hand for students, teachers and thinkers to learn, teach and explore their ideas across the world. In this tough time of pandemic the students are learning online from YouTube. A teacher makes the video lectures and uploads them on YouTube to educate the students across the world. The inspirational people from the whole world share their ideas and experiences on YouTube, the universities are now uploading their lectures online owing to covid-19, the whole globe is taking steps forward but we are still behind by making these sorts of decisions.

Therefore I urge government of Pakistan to ponder on this matter, think positively and act effectively.

Kind of HUMAN, but not treated as a human being

Transgender, who face discrimination, harassment, and bullying – from adults and kids alike – simply for existing. Moreover, they are left abandoned by their families or compelled to escape from home to join close-knit transgender communities. Why is this so? After all, Allah has made them that was not their sin to be born this way. besides, they deserve the same level of respect and love, as we do.

In contrast, the transgender community has fallen victim to harassment and sexual violence by the police and other powerful men. A very brutal, yet, accurate reflection of the problems faced by the transgender community is the recent ‘Sialkot incident’. There, a group of men from a local gang took hostage of several transgender persons and violated them throughout the night. The victims were brutally tortured, gang-raped, made to drink the urine of their tormentor, and burned with cigarettes. Besides, abuse was taped by the tormentors themselves and leaked onto social media to further embarrass the victims.

Apart from harassment, the transsexual community falls victim to a lack of educational and work opportunities. Since the transgender community is not really accepted in Pakistan, they have limited opportunities in comparison to everyone else. As a result, the seed of poverty begins to grow that results in homelessness or to become street beggars, dancers, and in the worst-case- prostitutes…

Then society blames them for spoiling the peace of nature, and what to say on the peace of those innocent hearts that you have crumpled the whole life???

A girl is always compared to an angel…

A boy is always compared to a bold character…

Then why not a transgender can be called as an angelic bold person!!!

WOMEN: Assets or Liabilities?

We are all born women and men. These are basic categories of human existence; acceptance of them unites religions and cultures. They are invaluable categories of social organization then why a boy is widely viewed as an asset; a future breadwinner, and caregiver who will not only look after his parents when they become old but also responsible for their new breed generation. A girl, on the other side, is seen as a liability, just because their parents are pressured by society to pay dowries when their daughters marry?

In contrast, Male education effects only his family while, when a woman is educated it can have a ripple effect within a family and across generations. Besides, investing in girl’s education yield a tremendous effect over a rotten society because when they know their rights it eventually develops the confidence to claim them properly. Moreover, they will also be less likely to become a victim in human trafficking. Indeed, when they are uneducated they become their prioritized target. Infact, women are the custodians of the values that sustain our society. How we see and treat them will determine the kind of future we create for the next generation. Now, it’s high time to stop debating about their worth and start seeing them as they should be: a valuable asset in society. Women's rights is not a women’s issue. It is human rights.

In addition to this, Women always endure themselves as homemakers and breadwinner as well if needed; however, in our society women are seen as a burden on the household and thankless responsibility. They are perceived as offspring who, unlike the sons, would not carry on the family’s name. Instead, a great amount of money would have to be arranged for their wedding which would benefit the homes of their husband’s families. apart from this, women contribute an essential part than any other gender. they take care of her family, nourish them, protect them like an umbrella in heavy rain, she does not get back in the hard knocks to step outside the home to earn and support her family without waiting for someone's help.

She's an asset, not a liability. She's the backbone. She's the one, not the one of many. She's worth a commitment. She's there to help, not to hinder. Let a woman be who God intended her to be, and your life will be better for it.

What happens when you raise voice against injustice?

While living in the 21st century, when some things are so transparent and open, the rural citizenry of Sindh has its own woeful tales to tell. They are hidden from urbanites, different in contours but similar in theme – extortion, abuse of political power, violations of laws and regulations is what these stories vividly speak of. What makes these stories different is the undertone of rebellion and a search for the straight path instead of succumbing to the crooked and devious.

One significant case from rural Setharja is that of Jogi goth. On Saturday 16th of march 2020, the Family of a reputed teacher, at IBA Jacobabad, was allegedly attacked by despot for just a piece of land. He was not only hurled abused but also threatened to leave the bargain while there is no room for a fair negotiation or face dire consequences. Prior to this, a number of court trials were held for over 4 months to resolve the matter through the law, and finally, when they got possession, this tragic event occurred. Because some people took the law on themselves for a piece of land. Does the question rise that all this because the victim claims the possession of property that belongs to him? Or is that out of fear and for the sake of peaceful life, it is necessary to compromise with louts, who threats at gunpoint and ask to do anything, no matter how wrong it is?

Would we, who believe in nationalism and justice, have to see such a day of misery, when a reputed teacher was brutally beaten by some influential people of a village just for a piece of land that yet officially belongs to him. Was it because he raised his voice against injustice?

This might be the first time they tried to take his land but if measure precautions are not taken, next time he will be left for dead. If we don’t speak up today for the injustice and misery of this case or in general then when tomorrow it is our turn or of someone we care, there will be no one left to speak out against it.
