चौपाल हमारी लोक-परंपरा का वह हिस्सा है, जहाँ कभी ग चौपाल हमारी लोक-परंपरा का वह हिस्सा है, जहाँ कभी गाँव की चौपालों पर बैठकर ज़िंदगी, समाज और संस्कृति की बातें हुआ करती थीं। यहाँ अनुभव बाँटे जाते थे, विचार पनपते थे और शब्दों के ज़रिये रिश्ते बनते थे। प्रभा खेतान फ़ाउंडेशन की चौपाल उसी परंपरा को आज के समय में जीवित रखने की एक पहल है, जहाँ साहित्य और शायरी के बहाने हम ठहरकर सुनते हैं, सोचते हैं और एक-दूसरे के नज़दीक आते हैं।

प्रभा खेतान फ़ाउंडेशन की यह पहल, अहसास वुमन ऑफ़ जयपुर के सहयोग से और आईटीसी राजपुताना के हॉस्पिटैलिटी पार्टनर के रूप में आयोजित की गई। इस चौपाल में पद्मश्री सम्मानित उर्दू कवि एवं साहित्यकार शीन काफ़ निज़ाम के साथ संवाद हुआ, जिसका संचालन कवि एवं संपादक आदिल रज़ा मंसूरी ने किया।

प्रभा खेतान फ़ाउंडेशन की साहित्यिक पहल ‘चौपाल’ के अंतर्गत पद्मश्री सम्मानित उर्दू कवि एवं साहित्यकार शीन काफ़ निज़ाम के साथ एक विशेष साहित्यिक संवाद हुआ। कवि एवं संपादक आदिल रज़ा मंसूरी के साथ हुई बातचीत में साहित्य, आस्था, रचनात्मक स्वतंत्रता और मानवीय संवेदनाओं के विभिन्न पहलुओं पर विचार साझा किए गए।

“अदब को मज़हब की तरह पढ़ा और मज़हब को अदब की तरह” की सोच को केंद्र में रखते हुए संवाद में मीर और ग़ालिब की शायरी से लेकर तन्हाई, ख़्वाबों, स्मृतियों और मानवीय रिश्तों तक कई विषयों पर चर्चा हुई। शीन काफ़ निज़ाम  की शायरी और तरन्नुम ने शाम को ख़ास बना दिया, वहीं साहित्य और जीवन से जुड़े विभिन्न विषयों पर हुई बातचीत ने इस महफ़िल को और भी यादगार बना दिया।

कार्यक्रम की शुरुआत प्रभा खेतान फ़ाउंडेशन की राजस्थान एवं मध्य भारत की मानद संयोजक अपरा कुच्छल के स्वागत वक्तव्य से हुई। समापन पर अहसास वुमन ऑफ़ जयपुर की कुलसुम मलिक ने शीन काफ़ निज़ाम और आदिल रज़ा मंसूरी का सम्मान किया। अपरा कुच्छल ने धन्यवाद ज्ञापन प्रस्तुत करते हुए सभी अतिथियों और उपस्थित श्रोताओं के प्रति आभार व्यक्त किया।

प्रभा खेतान फ़ाउंडेशन की इस पहल को अहसास वुमन ऑफ़ जयपुर का सहयोग मिला, जबकि आईटीसी राजपुताना हॉस्पिटैलिटी पार्टनर रहा। ‘चौपाल’ की इस साहित्यिक संध्या ने शब्दों, विचारों और संवेदनाओं के माध्यम से साहित्य तथा जीवन के गहरे संबंधों को महसूस करने का अवसर दिया।
