Children of destiny

March, 23: While being in Hyderabad I met a group of students from my motherland Kashmir. I was extremely happy to see these students from far north persuing their studies in deep south. I could not resist myself from paying a visit to Mulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU) were most of them are studying. During the interaction I came to know that most of these scholars and students were persuing their education under scholarship schemes. I found all if them very brilliant and focused to their studies. I was pleasantly surprised that these students had so much of talent and will to excel. It is worth to mention here that most of them are from humble families who in order to meet their expenses do not shy away from doing odd jobs during free time. Being highly impressed by the academic credentials of these enthusiastic students it gives me immense pleasure to write about few of them

He is currently pursuing Ph D in feminism from MANUU under U G C scholarship A topper in course work .He has published 5 research papers in reputed journals .In addition he has also about 20 research articles published in different news papers .

By the grace of Allah he will be the first Ph.D. from his village Telangam.
