मेवाड़ के शिरोमणि शासक महाराणा प्रताप, बीकानेर के सामंत पृथ्वीराज राठौड़ और राजस्थान के सुप्रसिद्ध कवि कन्हैया लाल सेठिया: इन तीनों शख्सियतों की ऐतिहासिक पृष्ठभूमि के केंद्र में है एक पत्र; एक ऐसा दस्तावेज़ जिसने मेवाड़ के इतिहास का रुख बदल कर रख दिया| इस अहम् पत्र के पीछे छिपी है एक रोचक कहानी जो मेवाड़ के गौरवशाली नायक प्रताप के साहसिक जीवन में आये उतार चढ़ावों, टूटते आत्मविश्वास और उभरते शौर्य का भली भांति परिचय देती है | जब भारतवर्ष के रजवाड़ों के अधिकतर शासक मुग़ल सम्राट अकबर से संधि को ही अपनी नियति समझ चुके थे, तब मेवाड़ के स्वाभिमानी के राजा महाराणा प्रताप ही थे जिन्होंने शहंशाह-ए –हिंद से लोहा लेने की ठान ली थी| अकबर के सभी संधि प्रस्ताव ख़ारिज करते हुए, प्रताप ने निडर व्यक्तित्व का परिचय दिया और अंततः,युद्ध निश्चित था|
18 जून 1576 को, हल्दीघाटी में अकबर की विशालकाय सेना का सामना करने चट्टान सा साहस लिए खड़ी थी, प्रताप और उनके विश्वासपात्र योद्धाओं की छोटी सी टुकड़ी| अद्वितीय बहादुरी का परिचय देते हुए प्रताप की सेना अंत तक शत्रु को चुनौती देती रही| अकबर की सेना महाराणा को बंदी बनाने में कामयाब नहीं हो पाई और प्रताप का वफ़ादार घोड़ा चेतक, प्रताप को एक सुरक्षित स्थान पर पहुंचाने की कोशिश में, गंभीर रूप से ज़ख़्मी होने के कारण शहीद हो गया| युद्ध के बाद, महलों का आलीशान जीवन छोड़कर प्रताप अपने परिवार के साथ जंगलों में भटक रहे थे और छापामार युद्ध पद्दति की तैयारी में मसरूफ़ थे| जीवन अभावों में कट रहा था; तभी एक दिन उनके पुत्र के हाथ से घास की रोटी छीन कर एक जंगली बिल्ला ले गया| मेवाड़ के राजकुमार की ऐसी दुर्दशा देख कर, प्रताप का दिल भर आया और उन्होंने बेबस होकर, अकबर को संधि पत्र लिखकर मुग़लों की प्रभुता स्वीकार करने की ठानी| पत्र पाकर अकबर अचंभित हो गया क्योंकि उसे विश्वास नहीं हुआ कि प्रताप जैसा शूरवीर योद्धा भी हार मान सकता है|
राजस्थान के लोकप्रिय कवि कन्हैया लाल सेठिया ने अकबर की इस मनोस्थिति का उम्दा वर्णन अपनी कविता “पीथल और पाथल” में किया है:
“के आज हिमालय पिघल गयो
के आज हुयो सूरज शीतल
के आज शेष रो सर डोल्यो
आ सोच हुयो सम्राट विकल”
Creation By: Anurag Mehta
प्रताप के अनगिनत प्रशंसकों में से एक था, बीकानेर का सामंत, पृथ्वीराज राठौड़ (पीथल) जो प्रताप का अनन्य उपासक था और अकबर के सामने प्रताप की तारीफ़ों के पुल बाँध दिया करता था| अकबर ने दूत को भेजकर पृथ्वीराज को बुलवाया और वह पत्र दिखाया| भाट कह कर उसका मखौल उड़ाते हुए अकबर ने पूछा कि, कहाँ गया वो लहू जो राजपूती रगों में बहता था; क्या हुआ महाराणा के उस पराक्रम का जो किसी के आगे झुकना नहीं जानता था| वो पत्र पाकर पीथल ने पाथल (प्रताप) को एक ‘पाती’ लिखी; एक ऐसी पाती जिसने महाराणा के हारे हुए उत्साह को ललकारा और उन्हें समझाया कि दुनिया की हर असंभव चीज़ संभव हो सकती है, लेकिन महाराणा कभी हार मान ले, यह किसी भी हालत में मुमकिन नहीं हो सकता| सेठिया जी लिखते हैं:
“म्हें आज सुणी है‚ नाहरियो, स्याला रै सागै सोवैलो। म्हें आज सुणी है‚ सूरजड़ो‚ बादल री ओटाँ खोवैलो म्हें आज सुणी है, चातकड़ो धरती रो पाणी पीवेलो म्हें आज सुणी है हाथीड़ो कूकर री जून्या जीवेलो |”
इस पत्र को पढ़कर प्रताप को एहसास हो गया कि वे भावनाओं में बहकर अपने दृढ़ संकल्प की बलि देने को तैयार हो गए थे| पत्र पढ़कर वे एक नयी ऊर्जा और जूनून से भर गए और अपने संधि पत्र वाले कदम के लिए खुदको कायर कहकर धिक्कारा| इस प्रकार एक शासक के बुझे हुए हृदय में फिर से आत्मविश्वास की ज्वाला जलाई एक प्रशंसक ने, और एक लोक कवि ने इस घटना को कविता की पंक्तियों में गुथकर हमेशा के लिए अमरत्व का जामा पहना दिया| इस तरह, ये तीन व्यक्ति इतिहास के दोराहों पर मिले और एक सुनहरे अध्याय को माज़ी के पन्नों पर दर्ज़ करके जुदा हो गए|
Udaipur has always topped the list of ‘the best places to visit’ due to its hotel and tourism industry worldwide, but this city is also home to numerous budding entrepreneurs. And this time, the flag has been held up by Dr. Tanushree Jain.
Dr. Tanushree Jain, a graduate from Manipal University, Karnataka, is currently working as a Chief Executive Officer of Think Out Of The Box (TOOTB) Healthtech Private Limited.

TOOTB focuses on developing innovative products for the medical field and the startup is related to designing disposable syringes. The syringes developed are used to administer drugs through intravenous and intramuscular injection for the treatment of diseases.

Dr. Bhanno Prakash Verma (ENT SURGEON) also shared his medical experience and supported her. She is very thankful to IIM Udaipur Incubation center Team– Dr. Umamaheswaram, Gaurav and Aastha who tremendously supported her throughout this process.
Dr.Tanushree believes that there is a lot of innovation required in the medical field. “Our startup is not only working to overcome some of the medical related problems but also with innovation try to make the already existing devices easier for the doctors, dentist, nurses and less traumatic for the patients. Currently, we are performing clinical trials in the hospitals, looking for investors and planning to launch this device in the market soon” says Tanushree. This startup has also been awarded as National Level Business Plan Competition winner.

Udaipur, the city of lakes is not only well-known for its alluring palaces, traditional food, scenic lakes but also for the scorching heat during summers. Almost everyone is complaining about the quivering heat. But this doesn’t stop the Udaipurites from visiting different places, hanging out with friends or going to work, does it?
As the summers in the state are moving towards its apex, there are some things that we all must make a note of. Keeping our bodies hydrated and healthy is most significant. Most of us head out to work at the peak hours of the day. While there are several ‘Nuskhas’ to safeguard ourselves from the hot spell, one foolproof plan is to gulp down a chilled glass of fruit juice to keep yourself hydrated.
There are various juice shops spread across the city, but we have found the best juice shop in the town to put an end to the summer dehydration woes.
JJ JUICE CORNER:
JJ Juice corner near Ghanta Ghar.
The famous juice shop near GhantaGhar was started by Lt. Jamiatmal Jagatram Karira in the 1950s. The business started as a fruit retailer where Chikoos and other local fruits were imported from Mumbai.
Lt. Ramesh Chandra, son of Lt. Jamiatmal Jagatram Karira overtook the shop and took the business in his hands. The legacy is still running, keeping the rapport up to the mark.
In our conversation with Mr.Rakesh Karira, the current owner of the JJ Juice Corner, we learned significant things about the shop and its clientele.
The journey started with just Mosambi and Pineapple Juices in 1991. Now, with over 200 varieties of shakes, smoothies, and juices, JJ Juice Corner has always been in news for its delectable taste. Mr. Rakesh believes in innovation and has been trying every permutation and combination with the fruits and dry fruits.
The juices are made according to the client demands, fresh fruits are handpicked to get the best taste. Keeping in mind the current scenario of unhealthy eating habits, honey and dates are used to sweeten the juices which is a very thoughtful initiative taken by the owners. The current staff at JJ Juice Corner has been associated with the business from more than 20 years now.
The Juice corner has been featured in the famous travel and fashion magazine, Femina and the travel website TripAdvisor. As the shop is near the famous City Palace, it receives a great tourist attraction, majorly foreigners. Mr. Rakesh tells that Israelis are the most common customers. The bestseller Mix Fruit Juice with Dates is the favorite amongst the foreign customers, especially Israelis.

Ayush Chauhan, a 19-year-student writer who hails from the city of lakes Udaipur, began his writing journey 4 years ago. From a very young age, he started developing interests in renowned Ghazal singers and poets. Some of his favorites included the well-known Rahat Indori, Mirza Ghalib and Waseem Barelvi.

He chose love, heartbreak, and life as a genre of his poems. Being an average student in school, apart from writing, he was also a football lover. He deeply enjoys riding and often meanders from place to place to find some soulful inspiration for his poems. Being a science student, he always wanted to fulfill his father’s desire of seeing him become a successful doctor.
Ayush Chauhan
But, again, like every other Indian boy’s story, it seemed like destiny had already planned his way into a different direction. Even though he was overwhelmed with his efforts towards the arduous studies and syllabus, he never gave up on writing. He started penning down his stress and sorrow in his diary. That later on turned into the idea of writing the book, “Tum Apni si Lagti Ho”. This came when he felt the need to connect with people through his words. The whole process of writing this book took 3 months, but the poems were already nibbled down 4 years ago. From being a common teenager to an author of the book, the journey will surely motivate readers to believe in one-sided love and relationships. In the era of new age love stories, Ayush hopes to showcase the power of one-sided love through his poems.

It describes the different phases of love and affection and surely takes you on a poetic ramble of one-sided love, patience, heartbreak, and acceptance.

It includes 55 poems inscribed by the newly started poet, Ayush Chauhan. While reading, the book will take the readers on a poetic excursion of first love, patience, heartbreak, separation, and acceptance, leaving them thinking and pondering about the whole idea of love. The poems might sound raw but the emotions and feelings attached to them are very sagacious and true. Ayush, the 19-year-old enthusiastic poet began writing 4 years back.
This book is an amalgam of 55 out of 100s of poems written over this period of time. The idea of writing this book struck him when he needed a platform to showcase his poems.
