Uddari Mudhla Warqa

Punjabi word ‘uddari’ was common enough but had not captured me till author Zubair Ahmad (Kitab Trinjan, Lahore) suggested it as ‘khyal uddari’ for ‘imagination’ in my novel ‘Skeena’. Later, i mentioned it to Editor Maqsood Saqib (Monthly Pancham, and Suchet Kitab Ghar, Lahore) as a title for a proposed journal of Punjabi writings; “Uddari!” Maqsood Saqib slashed the ‘khyal’ in his most decisive tones. So, uddari it is.
Uddari Weblog is a place to discuss maaNboli issues such as the status of maaNboli languages, royalty rights of writers, support for the publishers, and whatever is in between.
