Arastu Yar Jung Bahadur

Bilquis Abid Ali has written this book about her father late Dr. Abdul Husain also known as Arastu Yar Jung. It is not a formal biography, but it encompasses his life, deeds, and various incidents, which she knew personally, or learned from her family members and others in Hyderabad. Fifty years ago, Arastu Yar Jung treated many people but very few of them are still alive; therefore, Bilquis Abid Ali believes it is vital to record all these incidents expeditiously. Her narration is straightforward and spontaneous. While writing this biography, she has adopted an objective attitude which enhances the utility and value of this book. Although, as the daughter of her subject, she had the right to make use of her personal feelings and sentiments and pay homage to her Babajaan (father), she has not done so.
