Sh. Rajender Verma श्री राजेन्द्र वर्मा
राजेन्द्र वर्मा जी हिंदी विषय से पोस्टग्रेजुएट हैं और वे किसान संचार के क्रिएटिव वर्क्स डिपार्टमेंट के हेड के तौर पर सेवारत है वे हरियाणा के मशहूर कार्टूनिस्ट एवं क्रिएटिव आर्टिस्ट हैं और इन्हें हरियाणा कि बोली और लोकज्ञान की गहरी समझ है इन्होने दैनिकभास्कर ग्रुप में साल 2000 से 2021 तक काम किया है राजेन्द्र वर्मा जी बताते हैं कि मैंने 1992 से 2000 तक हिन्दी के मशहूर उपन्यासकार श्री वेदप्रकाश शर्मा जी के साथ उनकी फर्म तुलसी पॉकेट बुक्स, मेरठ में काम किया।
इसके अलावा राधा पॉकेट बुक्स (मेरठ), पवन पॉकेट बुक्स व गोयल पॉकेट बुक्स, दिल्ली में भी काम किया। साथ में अध्यापन कार्य भी जारी रहा। मन में खुशफहमी थी कि जब तक सृष्टि में बच्चे हैं तब तक कॉमिक्स का काम खत्म नहीं होगा। मगर यह मेरी भूल थी। वक्त ने करवट ली और कार्टून चैनलों का दौर शुरू हुआ जिसने पॉकेट बुक्स को धराशायी कर दिया। रोजी रोटी के लाले पड़ गए। इसी दौरान हरियाणा में समाचार पत्र दैनिक भास्कर ने पाव जमाए। सन 2000 में मैंने बतौर हरियाणवी कार्टूनिस्ट इसमें ज्वाइन किया।
मेरे कार्टून पात्र चोटी वाले को समूचे हरियाणा में सर आंखों पर बैठाया। पूरे बीस सालों तक उसका जादू सर चढ़ कर बोला। इसी बीच नवचयनित जेबीटी टीचर्स का मामला तूल पकड़ चुका था। व्यवस्था उन्हें ज्वाइनिंग लेटर नहीं दे रही थी। वे प्रदर्शन कर रहे थे और सरकार उनपर तरह-तरह के जुल्म कर रही थी। एक कार्टूनिस्ट होने के नाते मैंने इस मामले को गंभीरता से लिया और व्यवस्था पर कार्टूनों के माध्यम से तीखे हमले किए जिससे व्यवस्था तिलमिला उठी और आखिरकार उसे नवचयनित टीचर्स को ज्वाइनिंग लेटर देने ही पड़े। उन अध्यापकों के संगठन मुखिया मिठाई लेकर मेरे घर पर बधाई व धन्यवाद करने आए। मैं आज भी इस वाकये कौ स्मरण करके सुकून प्राप्त करता हूं कि मेरे कार्टून किसी के काम तो आए।
