Telangana Freedom struggle
Telangana Freedom struggle
During 1946-1951, Telangana saw peasant guerilla armed struggle launched under the aegis of the Communist party. Led by Ravi Narayana Reddy, the Andhra Mahasabha had allied itself with the Communist party which had roots in the Telangana countryside.
Meanwhile, the Ittehad-ul-Muslameen decided to oppose the Communist movement. The Razakar organisation then emanated in the State under the leadership of Khasim Razvi, initiating communal violence.
The Nizam was barbaric in his actions and killed thousands of Telangana freedom fighters.
Though the Indian Union signed a standstill agreement with Nizam on November 29, 1947, the Nizam was boosting up the army and approached the United Nations, pleading for independence of the State. Then Makhdoom Mohiuddin and Ravi Narayana Reddy two leading Communist figures from Telangana, who were underground, were contacted. Although the Communist ranks were divided on the issue, the deal was struck on 4 May 1943, the Nizam lifted ban on the Communist Party in Hyderabad.
Maqdoom Mohiuddin- Quli Qutub Shah
ReplyDeleteMaqdoom Mohiuddin is Quli Qutub Shah of 20th century. Quli laid the foundation of gazal. It is a historical fact that in the hands of Maqdoom gazal attained amazing heights and its crowing glory. Bhagmathi (Lady Love) inspired and enticed Quli into love gazal. Similarly, there was lady love in Maqdoom's life and literature also. Ms.Indira Dhanrajgir is life-force of Maqdoom's love gazals. All his love gazals are addressed to her. Ms.Indira is Bhagmathi of Maqdoom’s life and 20th century urdu gazal. Indira Ji’s name appears conspicuously in several pages in his Magnum Opus ‘Bisat-e-Raks”. Without an elaborate discussion on this vital aspect any account of Maqdoom’s life or poetry is shallow and meaningless. All the researchers and critics should work on this component of Maqdoom's literature.

Nusrath Mohiuddin S/o Maqdoom Mohiuddin passed away on 4.4.2013. RIP to his soul.
ReplyDeleteWhat is tragic is to whom he was close to during his life time did not turn up to pay last tributes to him . Indira Dhanrajgir who was close to his father for decades did not bother to see his mortal remains. Nusrath was loyal and committed to her till the last moment. He used to be with her in all her meetings and family get togethers. Even when Maqdoom passed away she did not visit his house to pay last tribute. Maqdoom sahab passed away in Delhi and his body was brought to Hyderabad in August 1969. She was holidaying in Mauritius with her new love. Such people have no human values / sentiments.
