This book " Jwandi Leekoona" written in Pushto language, means living words is a miscellaneous collection of my writings and spontaneous thoughts, literary comments and critical analyses. Most of the writings have been published in Pushto newspapers and magazines during the past decade. Some regular columns, preface on literary books, selected editorial of monthly magazine that I have written as editor, pages from history and sketches of the social and literary activists of the area.
Besides aforementioned writings some new articles also included but the previous ones are much meaningful and attractive for the readers. This books is divided into six chapters. The first chapter is about social and national issues including population growth, human rights, rule of law, and national interest. Second chapter is about international relations, globalization, global movement for peace and an interview with Jewish Rabbi on the role of religion for a peaceful world. Third chapter is literary writings, fourth is about the life and struggle of local heroes and fifth is a short travelogue of Afghanistan’s Kunar province. In this travelogue I have mentioned some important dimensions of the Afghan society, infighting of the Afghan war lords, the tribal system and life under the rule of the Taliban.
Last chapter is written during visit to Norway. In this article under the title “reforms in the political system in Pakistan” is a comparison of the political system of Somalia, Pakistan and Norway. Why Norway is a developed country and Pakistan and Somalia are poor and backward? This question is thoroughly answered in this article.
