Its hazard rate is an increasing and decreasing function based on the value of the parameter. Explicit expressions for the ordinary moments, L-moments, quantile, generating functions, Bonferroni Curve, Lorenz Curve, Gini's index and order statistics are derived. The parameters of the proposed distribution are estimated by using maximum likelihood method and also illustrated by a lifetime data set.}, journal = {Journal of Mathematics and Statistics}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
