PU Faculty Gets Appreciation from Maharashtra Government
Dr. Ali Abbas, Coordinator of the Department of Urdu, Panjab University, Chandigarh has received an appreciation letter from the Maharashtra Government for translating an age old inscription which was in a depleted condition for its translation in Hindi/Marathi for the benefit of coming generation.
He informed that it was a cumbersome assignment because the inscription was in Urdu and in a very bad shape. The job was executed with utmost perfection and to the satisfaction of all concerned, he added.
The Forest department and the Rameshwar Temple Trust who first noticed the inscription tried their best to get it translated from various sources and ultimately they were able to contact Dr. Ali Abbas. Now, both the Forest Department and the Temple Trust have issued separate appreciation letters to Dr. Ali Abbas for his laudable work of human interest.
