"प्रेमांजली" महज एक कविता संग्रह नही बल्कि प्रेमपुष्प से सजी खुशबू बिखरेती बगिया है। जहां प्रेम का हर रूप है, मिलन की खुशी है तो विरह का गम भी है। खुशी के आंसू है तो दर्द से आंखे नम है। प्रकृति का सौंदर्य है तो मौसम का हर रंग है। खुशी दर्द आँसू है इश्क़ प्यार और मोहब्बत है। कविता है, गज़ल है, उल्फ़त की राह में हंसी बिखेरता कमल है। प्रेयसी का प्रेम है तो मां का वात्सल्य है।प्रेम के हर रूप हर रंग का दर्शन कराती प्रेमांजली आपको जरूर पसंद आएगी। आपका प्यार हमारे लिए अनमो...

"अंतर्नाद" देश काल और समाज का असली चेहरा दिखाता दर्पण है। रोज की घटनाओं से आजिज हर दिल से निकली चीत्कार है। समाज का विद्रूप चेहरा है, भूख बेरोजगारी से मरने की लाचारी है। भूख में जिस्म बेचने की मजबूरी है। कुर्सी सत्ता और सियासत की डर्टी पॉलिटिक्स है। धरती और पर्यावरण की करुण गाथा है। पाकिस्तान का नापाक आंतकी इरादा है। रिश्तों की टूटी मर्यादा है। वोटतंत्र, नोटतंत्र के बीच देशभक्ति की रसधार है। देश समाज को बचाने की ईश्वर से पुकार है।सोये देश को जगाने का शंखनाद करती अंतर्नाद में हास्य ...

This book gives a broader framework of plastic pollution, which is a significant issue worldwide. The book emphasizes the primary (plastic waste discharged from the direct source) and secondary pollutants (plastic trash which is disposed of on land and converted to micro and nano plastics in ocean). In addition to this, the volume also addresses the issues of plastic pollution by managing plastic waste in a circular closed loop. The book is divided into three parts: (1) generation and asse...
