# Cheti Chand

Chetri Chandra (Sindhi: چيتي چند, Moon of Chaitra) is a festival that marks the beginning of the Lunar Hindu New Year for Sindhi Hindus. The date of the festival is based on the lunar cycle of the lunisolar Hindu calendar, falling on the first day of the year, in the Sindhi month of Chet (Chaitra). It typically falls in late March or early April in the Gregorian calendar on or about the same day as Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra, Ugadi in other parts of the Deccan region and Hindu Samvat Nav Varsha or beginning on New Year in Hindu Samvat Calendar of India.

## Overview

The festival marks the arrival of spring and harvest, but in the Sindhi community, it also marks the birth of Uderolal in 1007, after they prayed to the Hindu god Varun Dev on the banks of River Indus to save them from the persecution by the tyrannical Muslim ruler Mirkhshah. Varun Dev morphed into a warrior and old man who preached and reprimanded Mirkhshah that Muslims and Hindus deserve the same religious freedoms. He, as Jhulelal, became the champion of the people in Sindh, from both religions. Among his Sufi Muslim followers, Jhulelal is known as "Khwaja Khizir" or "Zindapir". The Hindu Sindhi, according to this legend, celebrate the new year as Uderolal's birthday.
The tradition likely started with Daryapanthis. During the British colonial rule era, major annual fairs (melas) used to be held in Uderolal and Zindapir (near Hyderabad, Pakistan). In contemporary times, the Sindhi community celebrates the festival of Cheti Chand with major fairs, feast parties, processions with jhankis (glimpse stage) of Jhulelal (an avatar of [Varun dev], similar to Vithoba), other Hindu deities, and social dancing.
On this day, many Sindhis take Baharana Sahib, a representation of Jhulelal, to a nearby river or lake. Baharana Sahib consists of jyot (oil lamp), misiri (crystal sugar), fota (cardamom), fal (fruits), and akha. Behind is kalash (water jar) and a nariyal (coconut) in it, covered with cloth, phool (flowers) and patta (leaves). There is also a Murti (statue) of Pujya Jhulelal Devta. Cheti Chand is a major festival of Sindhi Hindus in India and Pakistan, and also celebrated by the Hindu Sindhi diaspora around the world.

He called this method "The Living Word": "A lively and fascinating word is a great power that can capture the attention of the audience, the force that moves the hearts and feelings, – one might say – the soul of teaching practice. A charming and humorous story has a great importance for every scientific".

# Harris Lenowitz

Harris Lenowitz is a professor of languages and literature at the University of Utah. He specializes in Hebraic studies, particularly the writings of the 18th-century Jewish messiah claimant Jacob Frank and the use of Hebrew in Christian art in the West.

## Education and career

In 1966 Lenowitz received his B.A. in English from the University of Texas at Austin. He received his Ph.D. in Linguistics in 1971, also from the University of Texas at Austin. He remained at the university as a lecturer in 1971–1972. In 1972, he joined the faculty of the University of Utah as an assistant professor. He became an associate professor in 1976 and a full professor in 1989. Lenowitz has been a visiting professor at Hebrew University from 1980–1981; at Portland State University in the summers of 1976, 1980 and 1984; at the University of Washington in the summer of 1987; and at the University of Haifa from 1995–1996. He received the PEN International Center Prize in Translation in 1978.

## Works

Lenowitz edited, translated and annotated The Collection of the Words of the Lord, a work originally written in Polish by Jacob Frank; the translation is freely available online. He has also translated The Sayings of the Lord Yakov Frank. In addition, he is the author of The Jewish Messiahs: From the Galilee to Crown Heights, which was reviewed in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and several scholarly journals. The Jewish Messiahs was described in the Jewish Quarterly Review as "the first text in English that focuses on primary texts relating to messianism as an active force in Jewish history" and in the Sixteenth-Century Journal as "a different and thought-provoking context to messianism and the context of messiah." Other works include seven additional volumes, approximately 20 scholarly articles, and 10 book chapters.

## Lawsuit

Lenowitz formerly belonged to the governing committee of the University of Utah's Middle East Center, one of only a handful of such centers in the United States. Robert Newman, then the University of Utah's dean of humanities, removed him from the governing committee, and in 2009 Lenowitz filed a lawsuit against Newman, claiming that Newman unfairly accused him of contributing to a hostile environment that had driven away several female faculty members. Lenowitz had previously denied Newman's claims, saying that the female faculty members had departed for better-paying jobs at other schools. The lawsuit has been dismissed.
Lenowitz was set to retire in the summer of 2011.
# Hassan Al Alfi

Hassan Al Alfi (Arabic: حسن الألفي; 3 March 1936 – 3 November 2021) was an Egyptian police major and politician, who served as governor and interior minister of Egypt from 1993 to 1997. He resigned from office following the Luxor massacre.

## Career

Alfi was the governor of Asyut province until 18 April 1993. He was appointed interior minister by President Hosni Mubarak to the cabinet headed by Prime Minister Atef Sedki on 18 April 1993, replacing Abdul Halim Moussa in the post. Alfi was not a member of Mubarak's party when he was appointed. Alfi implemented heavy-handed security steps to crack down on the Islamist militants, reducing their hit-and-run attacks during his tenure.
Alfi resigned from office on 18 November 1997, the day after more than 60 people were murdered by Gama'a al Islamiyya in Luxor. He was succeeded by Habib Al Adli as interior minister.

### Assassination attempt

Alfi survived an assassination attempt in Cairo perpetrated allegedly by Islamist militants on 18 August 1993. However, he was seriously injured in the attack which claimed the lives of at least four people, one of whom was his bodyguard. Egyptian Islamic Jihad was the perpetrator of the attack.

### Controversy

Alfi was tried in Cairo's criminal court due to the allegations of corruption and abuse of power in 1998. The claims were brought by the lawyers of Al Shaab newspaper, an Islamist-oriented daily. The same year the editor-in-chief and a cartoonist of the paper were arrested and sentenced to prison for alleged defamation of Alaa Al Alfi, son of Hassan Al Alfi.

## Death

Hassan Al Alfi died on 3 November 2021. His funeral ceremony was held on 4 November.
