[ an extract shape the author's autobigraphy]
I believe that the existent human face upwardly of Padamshree Dr. Syed Hasan is notwithstanding non revealed to the Nation, nor fifty-fifty unremarkably to Earth or the Government. It took me 15 years to unfold the reality that beingness a really intelligent man, how he deceived the teachers, the people of Kishanganj, every bit good every bit the Government. The principal aspect is that he called for sacrifice as well as made billons ... More than many times he had been found proverb :

1. Maien tankhah nahien leta [ I never convey salary] 2. Maien ne ghar ka paisa schoolhouse mein lagaya hai [I receive got invested my ain coin inwards the school] 3. Qaum ki doopti kashti ko par lagana hai [We receive got to salve the sinking shipping of the Nation] 4.Qaum mehanat se banti hai [The Nation is create of labor] 5. Hamen imaandari sikhai gai [ We receive got been taught honesty] 6. Teachers yahan kamane ke liey aaien ahien qurbani dene nahien aaye haien [Teachers came hither to earn non for sacrifice].

Can anyone say what the higher upwardly statements mean? Not exclusively the intelligent but an idiot tin sympathise the pregnant of these statements that Dr. Syed Hasan left America as well as came to remote expanse similar Kishanganj to serve the Nation [Qaum] exclusively because he wanted the Nation rising inwards the eyes of the basis as well as for this peachy cause, he sacrificed everything. His life inwards America, his carrier inwards India, as well as everything which is expected past times an educated human being to accomplish inwards his life.

If he invested his individual coin inwards the establishment to whom as well as so the establishment is owned to?. What an irony?,..if somebody invests coin inwards his ain delineate of piece of work organisation as well as claims that he sacrifices for the Nation. Where is the lose then? If he loosed or sacrificed his life inwards America as well as worked for the Nation inwards a remote expanse similar Kishanganj, inwards its provide he owned hundreds of acres of Schools solid reason worth billions of Indian Rupees as well as won the Pdamashree accolade from the Government of Republic of Republic of India for this sacrifice. What the teachers got inwards return? Has a unmarried instructor ever been donated fifty-fifty a unmarried squire meter of solid reason from the school? Was their childrens carrier non position at stake? Had they non spoiled their childrens futurebeing a devotee for the drive of the Institution?

At the fourth dimension of my joining when I saw the Director reciting the couplet of Allama Iqbal inwards the full general staff coming together inwards musical rhythm twisting his whole body, I stance that he is talking almost the sacrifice to the Nation[ Qaum].

AA TUJH KO BATATA HUN TAQDEER E UMAM KIYA HAI SHAMSHEER O SAN AAWWAL TAUS O RUBAB AAKHIR

In the hateful fourth dimension I became fond of him, because I had inwards my pump sowed from a long time, a profound dear for the Nation [Qaum]. As presently every bit the fourth dimension passed it revealed on us that the mention of sacrifice has been taken exclusively to exploit the volume emotionally. The parents, teachers, students, social institutions, regime arrangement as well as the politicians were exploited past times him emotionally, except men similar Syed Shahabuddin [ex MP]. Everybody knew that Dr. Syed Hasan has built an establishment for the Nation [Qaum]. Isnt it?

People similar to say Qaum ki cheez hai kiyon barbad karte ho Syed Sahab jo karte hain karne do [ It is Nations..why you lot destroy it? Let Syed Sahab do what he likes to do?] Sometimes the folks say: Qaum ka Idara hai.chal raha hai chalne diya jaiis men kiya bura hai..Syed Sahab ne apni holding bana liya hai koi baat nahien howdy ..faaieda to Qaum howdy ka hai [ It is the Institution of Nation. allow nosotros larn it runwhat is bad inwards it.. if Syed Sahib has made it his personal holding allow him do..but exclusively the Qaum is the beneficent.]

It is truthful that each as well as every skillful operate ultimately serves the Nation. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 shoe-maker industrial plant from forenoon to evening, he earns coin for his family, he is serving the Nation. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 farmer ploughs his field, he grows grains as well as vegetables, he earns coin for his solid unit of measurement he also ultimately serves the Nation. Every positive matter is the service to the Nation. Education is the best sort of service thus naturally it is considered every bit the best sort of Service to the lodge as well as Nation.

In fact error lies inside us. When nosotros listen the intelligence sacrifice nosotros aspect at the model personality of Sir Syed Ahmed Khan who founded the famous Aligarh Muslim University. He worked for the Nation[ Qaum] as well as he did what he could. The Aligarh Muslim University is non a individual property. It is non an experimental proprietary establishment similar Insan School [ these days Insan Group of Institutions] rather than it belongs to the Nation [Qaum], but when nosotros aspect frontwards on the evolution of Insan School, nosotros consider that inwards the heed of the folks it exists every bit a National Property [Qaum ki cheez] but inwards the eyes of the constabulary as well as its founder it is a proprietary institution. Folks notwithstanding believe that it is a Qaum ki cheez [Qaumi asasa ] National property. Let them go inwards fools paradise.

Owning holding is non bad, but claiming for sacrifice all through the life as well as and so making it of his ain was for certain a preplanned deception with the Qaum. If a human being similar Dr. Syed Hasan could receive got tried his best to create a University he could receive got done it certainly. If a Minority Character University could receive got been built inwards concrete what Dr. Syed Hasan could receive got gained to a greater extent than than the prestige. On the opposite his solid unit of measurement volition inherit from him such a grand slice of solid reason [ roughly 300 acres inwards 1994] that it tin consume from it generation subsequently generations. Bravo Dr. Syed Hasan . good done ! In this do failure is success non the success is success.

The recent discourse betwixt Dr. Mohammad Sajjad, Lecturer Department of History Aligarh Muslim University as well as the intellectuals of AMU Alumni , to come upwardly frontwards to found a distance teaching campus of the AMU at Kishanganj brought the truthful cat out from the bag.

Dr. Mohammad Sajjad , Lecturer, History, Aligarh Muslim University Aligarh Wrote :

The AMU is comprehensively debating the stance of having distant campuses inwards dissimilar parts of India. While, the statutory restrictions/ ambiguities notwithstanding stay to live on clarified every bit to whether the AMU Act mandates us to go for such exercise. Statutory restrictions (if any) apart, this item stance of the VC to receive got distant campuses is exactly extremely laudable.

By agency of suggestion, it may also live on proposed that the long standing Insaan School of Kishanganj, Bihar, may live on requested to come upwardly frontwards inwards this do of having distant campuses of AMU. This item establishment [founded past times Padam Shri, Syed Hasan], till 1980s, used to live on a character establishment which has produced peachy luminaries similar talented doctors, journalists as well as civil servants (some of them graduated from AMU itself). If the negotiation with the Insaan School materializes, as well as so 1 peachy wages with the AMU would live on that it volition non human face upwardly the work of procuring solid reason every bit the Insaan School possesses sufficient land. We demand non add together that the 70% of the population of the district of Kishanganj comprises of Muslims, with painfully depression flat of literacy. Of late, this historic establishment has fallen into crises, it would therefore, live on peachy if the recent do of AMU could rescue the establishment from such crises.

Dr. Nadeem Zafar Jilani, MBBS (1994), MD (Paediatrics-98), MRCPCH, Paediatrician, Royal Manchester Children's Hospital , United Kingdom of Great Britain as well as Northern Ireland of Britain as well as Northern Republic of Ireland as well as an alumni of Insan School wrote:

I congratulate Mr. Sajjad for arguing the representative for opening AMU's distant teaching campus inwards Bihar. If AMU has to live on upwardly to the dreams of its founder as well as its constitutional responsibleness to operate for the educational advancement of Muslims of Republic of Republic of India nether 5(2)(c) of the AMU Act, as well as so Bihar as well as Bengal deserve most of its attention.

As rightly pointed out past times Mr. Sajjad, Kishanganj beingness a span (situated at the border) betwixt Bengal as well as Bihar as well as a district with largest Muslim population (outside Kashmir) which boasts of having a unique educational establishment of its sort already at that topographic point inwards the shape of Insan School, volition live on an ideal choice.

Insan School , was founded past times Dr. Syed Hassan who too having been awarded Padam-shree has also been nominated for Noble Peace Prize inwards recent past. He is a peachy educationist of our times as well as has been a fellow member of Central Advisory Board for Education inwards India. He was inspired past times Sir Syed Ahmed khan as well as wanted to operate for the upliftment of Muslims of India. After getting his Ph.D. inwards teaching at Southern Illinois University (US), inwards 1962, he became an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Frost burg State University, Maryland, where he also earned Instructor of the twelvemonth award. In 1965 he left his illustrious career inwards USA to provide to Republic of Republic of India as well as chose Kishanganj to start his educational experiment because of its size able Muslim population as well as educational backwardness.

He started an educational mission past times the mention of Taleemi Mission Core (Educational Mission Corp). His mission declaration was "to hit educated people with all circular evolution as well as non exactly flat holders". Insan School, Insan College as well as Insan Adult Education School which came out every bit a outcome of this mission are spread inwards a campus (called Shiksha Nagar) of almost 120 hectares. The golden flow of Insan School has been betwixt 1970-1995 inwards which it was regarded the best School for overall personality evolution inwards the expanse attracting students from non exclusively Bihar as well as Bengal but also from eastern UP , northward eastern states as well as Nepal. During this flow it produced hundreds of professionals including Civil servants, Doctors, Engineers as well as successful businessmen.

At that fourth dimension people predicted it volition live on a futurity Muslim University.

Unfortunately due to lack of resources, no regime funding as well as leg pulling (which is universal to all Muslim-run institutions) it saw many setbacks inwards recent past. However it notwithstanding has the land, Infrastructure as well as a really trusted as well as credible leader (in the shape of Dr. Syed Hassan). If AMU tin opened upwardly 1 of its distant campuses here, it volition live on a existent tribute to Sir Syed Ahmed Khan every bit it was Sir Syed inwards the get-go house who inspired Dr. Syed Hassan to embark on his mission. Although himself non educated inwards Aligarh (studied inwards Jamia Millia) Dr. Syed Hassan is a truthful ALIGARIAN, improve than many of us, who are exactly serving lip service to Sir Syed's mission.

I appeal to EC, AMU courtroom as well as honorable vice chancellor to found formal contacts with Insan School which has ever been a satellite campus of AMU inwards its spirit. It volition aid thousands of Muslim students of that region.

Now consider the reactions as well as giddy arguments of Saba Syed Hafeez, the elderberry boy of Dr. Syed Hasan, residing inwards America, for non accepting the proposal:

Dear Alig Beraderi, AOA!,

Some 43 years ago, upon returning from US, INSAN's founder Dr. Syed Hasan, had a vision of having a Kishanganj based (due to its strategic location) multi-centers establishment throughout the India. The vision is notwithstanding live on every bit exercise of our charter. However, as well as so the stance was so radical that many stance of him beingness a spy or amount nut. Due to express circumstances, resources, as well as help, he concentrated his efforts inwards developing INSAN a unique as well as model educational as well as humanitarian establishment which attracted people from Kerala to Kashmir, as well as whose alumni are directly everywhere from Hyderabad to Harvard, as well as which changed the educational as well as social dynamics inwards the northeastern gateway of India.

In in conclusion 135 years or so nosotros receive got done a pitiful undertaking inwards spreading the teaching into the needy masses, peculiarly with Muslims. We should receive got at to the lowest degree 10 campuses of AMU as well as some other ten-fifteen institutions similar AMU, as well as hundreds of colleges as well as thousands of schools past times now. We all know that Sir Syed never envisioned this disastrous outcome.

Multi-Campuses, Distance Learning Centers, University Extensions, collaborations as well as aid to others institutions as well as feeder educations, as well as opening feeder institutions. There are a host of the things which tin live on explored as well as implemented to fulfill the social demand as well as Sir Syed's dream past times the likes of AMU, JMI, as well as Jamia Hamdard. The electrical current initiatives as well as give-and-take are salubrious signs of our awakening to the cause. And nosotros salute the Vice Chancellor Prof. P.K. Abdul Azis for taking the lead. Last ten-fifteen years are also really encouraging every bit nosotros witness to a greater extent than as well as to a greater extent than efforts inwards this regard throughout India. Dr. A. R. Kidwai Saheb's essay to initiate the deemed academy inwards West Bengal is extremely admirable. He had done similar sanction for the INSAN University inwards the past times but due to the obstruction created past times our ain members of the community (alas), the initiatory is notwithstanding inwards pending stages.

When at that topographic point is a volition at that topographic point is a way. The laws are made, amended, as well as changed over fourth dimension to reverberate the needs. Having AMU multiple campuses has zero to do with affiliation. There are many applied scientific discipline colleges inwards Delhi as well as Mumbai as well as none of them are affiliated with IIT-Delhi or IIT-Bombay.

Creation of a academy is a long procedure unless 1 is Leland Stanford, or gets aid from somebody similar him, or is totally backed past times regime generous funding as well as logistics. It took almost 50 years to evolved Sir Syed motion as well as Hakeem Saheb's dream into AMU as well as Jamia Hamdard. Similarly Jamia Millia Islamia which started inwards 1920 finally became the key academy inwards 1988. InshaAllah sooner nosotros volition start sooner nosotros volition larn to our goals.

At INSAN nosotros are opened upwardly to the ideas. Our destination is non to larn a branch of AMU but live on exercise of the collaborative efforts to our collective cause. Definitely INSAN's place beingness at the junction of Bihar, Bengal, Assam, Nepal etc, as well as the regions Muslim demographic volition live on a plus. Similar locations should live on also considered inwards other exercise of the India, such every bit inwards the due west as well as inwards the south.

I volition similar to give thank you lot Dr. Mohammad Sajjad Sahib, as well as Dr. Nadeem Zafar Jilani for considering INSAN School/College inwards this regard. May Allah convey our intentions as well as efforts! Saba Syed Hafeez, PUC 1979, INSAN Foundation, Los Angeles, U.S.A. of America.

After the higher upwardly comments of Saba Syed Hafeez is at that topographic point whatever incertitude that the Insan School as well as Insan College is non the holding of Qaum rather than a grabbed individual holding snatched from the oral cavity of the Qaum with a long term deception. Is it fair for Saba Syed Hafeez to suggest some other house inwards South Republic of Republic of India rather than inwards Bihar for the Distance Education Centre of the Aligarh Muslim University. Does his proposition protects the involvement of the people of Kishanganj as well as Biharor it beautifully safeguards his personnel interest?. [ contnued.........] XXXXXXX
