Reviews on Baluchi Books

[Zahida Raees Raji]

Dear Readers
Assalam-o-alaikum
As we know Books are big resources of expending the value of any language and literature.
Un-published stuff never get important place in any history of languages.

Unfortunately our Baluchi language and literature are hidden in front of world.
But it’s a pleasure change in today's Baloch generation that they want to know and learn their language, culture and tradition.  As well as they are working to promote our language.
I think we should have to appreciate them.
In this regard books, magazines and newspapers can play a good role to promote language, literature and producing talented writers.
Here I am starting a thread to discuss books, magazines and newspapers.

You can post your comments, views, critics and suggestions on any book, magazine and newspaper, presented here.


Looking forward for your valuable contribution.

"Mahtaak Baluchi" is the presentation of "Baloch Publication" since 1948. It’s one of the oldest magazines on Baluchi Adab.

Standard Magazine sized book consist of Baluchi literature i.e. Poetry, Prose articles, interviews and everything related to the Baluchi Language and Literature.
 
It’s highly appreciating that along with experienced writers and poets they are introducing new talents from every region of Balochistan.

Although i have no interest in Urdu,May be not only me but many and i guess why should one waste his time for urdu when his own language is 1000 times better then this,Any way but there are some people like Nargis they are using this language just to let other know about Baluch and Baluchistan.
