The third episode of
URDU LIVE, a programme based on Urdu
adab and
sher-o-shayeri, has been released today. In this episode, there is a special coverage on a well-known Urdu writer of Bihar,
Late Justice Shamim Ahsan Saifi sb. Bihar has produced several eminent Urdu writers like Sulaiman Nadvi, Manazir Ahsan Gilani, Abdul Qavi Desnavi, Paigham Afaqui, Jabir Husain, Sohail Azimabadi, Hussain Ul Haque, Dr. Shamim Hashimi, Wahab Ashrafi, Shafi Javed and Shamim Ahsan Saifi etc.
Justice Shamim Ahsan Saifi sb (1934-1994), an ex-Patna High Court judge, is also known for organising a widely-acclaimed
mushaira in Muzaffarpur in 1982, which was attended by almost all the major poets of that time -- Majrooh Sultanpuri, Fahmida Riyaz, Moin Ahsan Jazbi, Khumar Barabankvi, Basheer Badr and Waseem Bareilvi etc.
URDU LIVE, which is hosted by me, is produced with the intention of promoting Urdu language, especially among youths. It discusses works of prominent poets, novelists and writers etc., as well as provides young and upcoming poets and ghazal singers, a platform to showcase their talent.
