I met Rahim Anjaan Saheb in1978 during a Mushaira in Ottawa.  I was an engineering student at the University of Ottawa when Faiz Ahmed Faiz, our beloved and famous poet from Pakistan, visited Canada.. As a student, I was asked to impersonate and read poems of famous poets of that time including Faiz Ahmed Faiz in his presence at the university auditorium – an experience that remains fresh in my memory after 28 years.

Following is my tribute and acknowledgement to Rahim Anjaan Saheb, in URDU, for his remarkable work in Canada.

Sincerely,
Tanveer Qureshi
