Shakhsār (Urdu: شاخسار), also spelt as Shaakhsaar, was an Urdu literary magazine published in Cuttack, Odisha, India,[1] edited by Amjad Najmi.[2] Initially, this magazine played a central role in connecting and introducing the literary world of Odisha to the Urdu world of India and outside India within a short period of time.[3][4]
History
[edit]In June 1965,[5] a year before the publication of Shabkhoon, Karamat Ali Karamat started this bi-monthly magazine from Cuttack under the editorship of his teacher Amjad Najmi as the spokesperson of pure and healthy modernity.[6][7]
The first issue was published in June–July 1965, and the last issue was published in May 1973.[5]
On the contribution of Shakhsar to Urdu literature, Salman Raghib has written a thesis on the subject of "Contribution of Shakhsar to Urdu Literature" and obtained his Ph.D from Utkal University.[8] Some of Shakhsar's editorials and commentaries were published under the title "Shekhar ke Idāriye aur Tabsare"(transl. Shakhsar's Editorials and Commentaries) by Insha Publications, Kolkata.[9]
