Today marks the 35th death anniversary of #Jaidev, a legendary figure in the Hindi film music industry (06/01/1987). Known for his sensitive and thought-provoking compositions, Jaidev's music was deep, spiritual, and ethereal, often described as soulful and sublime.

Although his music didn't appeal to the masses, Jaidev was a preferred composer for low budget, art, and new wave films. He collaborated with renowned filmmakers like Chetan Anand, K A Abbas, Hrishikesh Mukherji, Muzaffar Ali, Basu Chatterji, Bhimsen, Ved Rahi, and Amol Palekar. His works often featured lesser-known actors, a choice he never regretted. Many of his films, such as 'Joru Ka Bhai', 'Anjali', 'Kinare Kinare', 'Do Boond Paani', 'Reshma aur Shera', 'Prem Parbat', 'Parinay', 'Alaap', 'Gaman', 'Tumhare Liye', 'Dooriyan', 'Ankahee', and 'Chand Grahan' (with the exception of 'Gharonda'), were not commercially successful but are remembered today for their rich, soulful, and award-winning music.

Jaidev was a recipient of four Sur Singar Samsad awards, the Lata Mangeshkar Award from the Madhya Pradesh Government, and three National Awards for 'Reshma Aur Shera', 'Gaman', and 'Ankahee'. Despite his immense talent and contributions, he did not receive the recognition he deserved, reflecting a sad aspect of modern cinema's musical culture.

Jaidev passed away on January 6, 1987, leaving behind a legacy that was largely unsung and unwept at the time. However, time has only enhanced his reputation among music lovers, ensuring that his extensive and excellent body of work remains unforgettable. His melodious contributions to the music world are enduring and continue to resonate.

Apni Party demands the holding of party-based elections for Panchayats and ULBs

Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari asks party cadres to gear up for the upcoming elections

Shakir bhat

Srinagar, May 18: Apni Party on Thursday demanded the holding of upcoming Panchayat and ULB polls on party-bases.

The demand came to the fore after the party passed a resolution seeking party-based election for the proposed Panchayat and ULB polls. The resolution, presented by the party's State Secretary Muntazir Mohiuddin and supported by Provincial President Mohammad Ashraf Mir, received unanimous approval.

Besides senior leaders, the meeting held at the party headquarters in Srinagar, was attended by all the zonal leaders and senior workers from the Srinagar district, a press release said.

On this occasion, the party president Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari asked the party leaders and grassroots cadres to prepare themselves for the forthcoming Urban Local Bodies (ULB) and Panchayat polls and assured them that with the significant public support received by the Apni Party, it will emerge as the primary victor in the electoral contest.

According to the press release, Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari, while addressing the meeting, said that, unlike the traditional political parties, Apni Party would refrain from engaging in political gimmicks and the politics of false promises, instead it would promise to implement its robust developmental agenda.

He said, "As we know, it has become a common practise for traditional political parties to allure their voters through deceptive promises and emotional slogans. However, we firmly believe in upholding the trust of our people, so we will never mislead them. Instead, we will guarantee our voters that we will implement our development agenda if we are mandated to serve them."

Urging party leaders and grassroots cadres to gear up for the upcoming ULB and Panchayat polls, Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari said, "It is of utmost importance for you to stay connected with the masses in your respective constituencies. By doing so, you can raise awareness among the voters regarding our party's vision and objectives."

He further said, "Besides making people aware of our agenda and policies, we also must make them aware of the deceptive politics of the traditional political parties, who have always misled the people through deceptive political narratives that eventually brought miseries to the people over the course of the past several decades."

"Their misleading political narratives and emotional slogans have landed thousands of youths either in jails or in graveyards, especially during the past three decades. Therefore, it becomes our responsibility to remind people of the false promises made by these parties. The hollow rhetoric and deceptive promises such as guaranteeing a "plebiscite," "autonomy," "self-rule," and other similar pledges have resulted in the incarceration or loss of thousands of young lives during all these years. Apni Party will not allow this political gimcrackery to continue any further because the J&K people cannot bear the burden of further bloodshed, destruction, and loss of life. It is imperative that we prevent any more suffering in this region." He added.

The prominent leaders who were present on the occasion included Mohammad Ashraf Mir, Junaid Azim Mattu, Muntazir Mohiuddin, Noor Mohammad Sheikh, Haji Parvez, Jagmohan Raina, Dilshada Shaheen, Bilal Bhat, Khalid Rathore, Muzaffar Hussain Reshi, Ashraf Palpori, Tanveer Pathan, Shoaib Dar, Aijaz Rather, Mohammad Ashraf Dar, Jeelani Kumar, Mohsin Zaffar Shah, Mohammad Shafi Mir, Ali Mohammad Rather, Mohammad Shaban Chopan, Shabir Ahmad Reshi, Kaisar Ganai, Aijaz Ahmad Khan, and others.

Muzaffar Ali: The man for all seasons

Talking to Muzaffar Ali is full of old world charm. His impeccable Urdu diction, the pauses, the grace… it all combines to transport you back to a time long relegated to the pages of history. There is an element of melancholy, a pleasant nostalgia when he talks about Kotwara, his ancestral home, where history resided on the mantelpiece and riches lay in the courtyard. His father, Raja Syed Sajid…
