Our mission is to make a positive difference in the career and lives of Aligarh Muslim University Students and Alumni of AMU.

ALIGARH Muslim University has produced many great public figures in the past who have served in high positions throughout India, and in several Asian and African countries, but none in America. It is for the first time that an Aligarian scientist and entrepreneur, Dr. Masarrat Ali has decided to fill this void in the most powerful country of the world.

The Executive Council of Aligarh Muslim University in its emergent meeting held today has  resolved to award the degree of D. Lit. (Honoris Causa) to the Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh, Chairperson of Indian National Congress Smt. Sonia Gandhi, Chancellor of Aligarh Muslim University and retired Chief Justice of India Justice A. M. Ahmadi and the iconoic artist of global fame Mr. M. F. Husain. The D. Lit. degrees will be given to these distinguished personalities for the outstanding contributions made by them in their respective fields of endeavour. The degree will be conferred in the forthcoming annual convocation of the University.

The Executive Council of Aligarh Muslim University in its emergent meeting held today has decided to give re-emplyment to Prof. Noor Afzal with immediate effect as a special case keeping in view his academic credentials and expertise in Fluid Mechanics on the prescribed terms and conditions till he attains the age of 65 years. The decision of the EC was taken in the light of Statute 29(10)(b) and Clause 26 of Chapter IV of the Ordinances (Executive) of the University. The EC has also examined the recommendation of the Board of Studies of the Department of Mechanical Engineeringas.

"Democracy has been flourishing in the country but no political party pays heed to the concept of internal democracy" and "frequent nomination to the important posts instead of democratic election is the testament of the fact", said Rahul Gandhi, MP and General Secretary of the Congress while interacting with the students at Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh.

Rahul Gandhi, M.P. will be visiting Aligarh Muslim University on December 7, 2009 on the invitation of the Vice Chancellor, Prof. P.K. Abdul Azis.
