Yusuf I - shame on aligarians Unregistered | Apr-26-07
Aligarians should hang their head in shame. Aligarh is turning into a haven for killers and criminals.. it's time to enforce a severe crackdown and throw out the FMCs (Failures, Mullahs and Criminals). They are the root of all evil in aligarh.
Isteyaq Ahmed - Where is Aligarh Heading Towar Unregistered | Apr-26-07
I feel sorry for the family, of loosing a child who travelled down to Aligarh to acquire education..

Where is AMU heading towards???do we really deserve this university, if we can't manage the very basics which is the law n order...

I have been told about fights between rival groups back by different teachers ...

Also heard that the procter is facing inquiry for land grabbing of the university...

today IBN 7 is reporting of protest at registrar off.

All of us needs to introspects, and need to get into the motives of these killings...

i raise objection on the word sad demise used in this headline...its killing, lets not shy away from realities...the national TV network is reporting murder of a student, so we should present certain facts as facts no matter how blunt it sounds...
Yusuf I - I am sorry for all this Unregistered | Apr-26-07
Muslims cannot even maintain one university we have been given.. shame on us. These kind of things will only change when we take our blame and stop blaming others for our failures.
If we do let these criminals survive in our society, people like Modi and Advani are sure to take advantage and sow seeds of destruction.
I say that these gunda elements are more harmful to our community than even Modi, Advani or VHP combined.

How long the silent majority will continue to remain mum..? Where have the so called Alma matter and alumunies have gone...? Is this the way our all famed AMU, the torch bearer of the community wants demonstrate its preparedness in a post Sachar committee's report era..? Dear readers..how on earth can you remain indiffrent when the lone living symbol of our past glory is being destroyed..?Alas! not by Sangh Parivar but by its very own internal politics...? Dear readers how many more death you need to wake up..? Two deaths in almost two weeks...Isnt that enough...?? One was my brother....Believe me this is the time to take action...else you dont have any rights to associate yourself with AMU...Atleast voice your protest against the supporters of criminal groups...Unfortunately the Union president itself is among the first to be shown the door...so do need the some section of staffs...They must be pushed to the corner by having a new VC who must posses the guts and Gumption of Mehmoodur Rahman...A police search should be carried out over all hostels to ensure the complete purge of arms and criminals...these are the bare minimum requiremnts...
shahbaz - AMU union leader Unregistered | Apr-26-07
is the culprit.. According to my sources, AMU student union president orchestrated the violence in AMU to pursue his agenda of letting the criminals gain a foothold in AMU. He should not only be removed from Campus but also arrested for conspiracy to Murder.

Atiq Ahmad - WE MUST DEMAND A CBI PROBE IN Unregistered | Apr-27-07
Can we demand a CBI probe investigating both the killings, and the circumstances in which the VC chose to resign.

We should seek a statement from the ex VC, asking him to come out in public, why he chose to resign.

Also there is a pending enquiry going on agianst the present proctor for grabbing and selling some university land.

One point of concern, why is the protest diverted against the registrar & registrar office, when the issue of law and order is a proctor concern.Can anybody give me a reason to understand this spin.

The sequence of incident calls for nothing less than a CBI probe.Can we all demand that.

Ashraf - Remove Union President Unregistered | Apr-27-07
He is the source of all problems in AMU. He has created problems for all the hard-working students at AMU by misleading students and creating 'mobs'. These union guys are nothing but slimy politicians. Every time since Faruqi's time, every agitation is carried out by these gundas of Student Union, who think they are mafia dons. But sadly, as soon as they step out of campus they become "bheegi billis". Their badmaashi is only limited within the campus.
Ban the union.
Webmaster - Culprit Must be punished !!! Unregistered | Apr-27-07
Few Facts about Kausar

1) He had passed his Class 10 examination with 97 per cent marks from St Joseph’s School Bhagalpur
2) Passed his Plus Two examinations from AMU
3) After doing his Plus Two, he appeared at various competitions held for selection of students for admission to various engineering colleges.
4) His brilliance as a student became evident when he made it through most of the competitions in which he appeared
5) As an engineering student, too, Kausar proved brilliant and was preparing for his final year examinations when tragedy struck.
6) Quaisar was set to join the Tata Group as an engineer after his final-year examinations because the Tatas had selected him on campus.
7) Kausar’s parents are too shocked and grief-stricken to talk to anyone about the tragedy. They have been put under medical observation as both are heart patients.

atiq - Bloody ways of VC empanelment Author | Apr-27-07
Yet another innocent, bright, sincere, gentle, absolutely apolitical student of the AMU has been killed. The deceased student, Kausar Ali, a B.Tech (final semester) student from Bhagalpur, Bihar, was not having any love affair, he was not involved in or accompanied with any political/ lumpen student In short, we don’t know any prima facie reason, he was a thoroughly gentle student with a good academic record and had already got a lucrative job in the TCS.

This second murder in a series, amidst so much of wheeling and dealing for the empanelment of the next VC, and perhaps, forced exit of the previous VC, Naseem Ahmad, has raised too many serious questions/speculations.
Throughout the campus, these questions are being raised, discussed and debated:

1. Large number of people on the campus is surmising that the teachers (read killers) lobbying for the empanelment of their men as the next VC have got him killed to create big turmoil on the campus, with the intention that any academician could be eliminated from the panel. And thus the probable candidates from the IAS/IPS cadre are coming under the doubtful sphere. This probability gains credibility because any demand for CBI enquiry (into the entire series of events since 5th April 2007, i.e. since the surreptitious exit of the VC, Naseem Ahmad) is being opposed vehemently. The AMUSU President Nafees Ahmad, the supporters of the Proctor Akhlaq Ahmad and many others are looking scared of this particular demand . Why?

2. Why did the angry crowd of students (after the murder of Kausar on 25th April), expressed their wrath against the Proctor, manhandled him and suddenly moved towards the residence of the Registrar (Faizan Mustafa) and made murderous attack on him, (which he escaped narrowly) whereas law and order is the responsibility of the Proctor? (Some students in the crowd reveal that the mob was turned towards the Registrar with the ‘advice’ of an Asstt. Proctor, Dr Hasan Imam, happening to hail from the province to which the deceased belonged). This mob was led by some lumpens/rusticated students, patronized by Shamim ‘Comrade’, an employee of the AMU’s Centre for Adult Education.

Let it be mentioned here that recently, a pamphlet was pasted throughout the campus, detailing that the Proctor had sold away a piece of AMU land (Plot no. 1128, near IG Hall, worth a crore of rupees). This may also be noted that Akhlaq’s promotion to Professorship was also resented by the campus as his academic incompetence is notoriously well known. This is also significant to note that these kind of outrageously incompetent people have got the ‘franchise’ to vote for/against the persons to be empanelled as the next VC. Another such outrageously incompetent person going to ‘vote’ for the panel is Prof. Sibghatullah Faruqi, the Provost, VM Hall. He is infamous for minting money through Dining Halls (Food – Mess, which is literally in a mess).

3. The rumour/speculation (with some weak or strong evidences) is that the Proctor is being protected by Syed Hamid (Ex VC, AMU), through Prof. Nafees Ahmad (Ex Proctor, AMU and a great protégé of Syed Hamid and identified as a great villain of AMU in MN Faruqi’s autobiography, My Days at Aligarh). The Proctor, Prof. Akhlaq, belongs to the Ballia district of UP and Mr Rizwan (IPS), one of the contenders for the VC-ship of AMU, also belongs to Ballia. Rizwan’s candidature is supported by Fatmi, the Union minister, as he is a good friend of Prof. Irfan (D/O Physics & brother of Rizwan, IPS). Fatmi’s long associate, Hafiz Ilyas, and some of his followers among the teachers from Bihar (like Nafees Ansari, D/o Pol. Sc.) are also in their league. All of them (ever since the VC, MN Faruqi’s departure in 1994), have not been able to extract much favour (in admissions, recruitments) from the successive VCs. There are some speculations that Hafiz Ilyas’ second preference is Jannat Husain, IAS (Andhra cadre), from eastern UP who is also supported by the AMU Treasurer, Mr Mehfooz. The rumour that the Registrar is lobbying for his brother Siraj Husain’s empanelment, has been pushed into the background, as Mr Siraj has not given his consent for AMU’s VC-ship. But there are also rumours that his another relative, Mr Quraishi, an IAS, is sought to be empanelled as VC.

4. The Proctor and the Controller have earned the wrath of common students also because of the fact that, on 25th morning, the Proctor, succumbing to the demand of about 14 lumpens, assured that such lumpens would be allowed to sit in the exams and obtain degree through backdoor i.e. through the Centre for Distance Education. The Proctor assured this handful of lumpens that necessary amendments in the rules will be made by the Controller. Common students got outraged because, by that time, these lumpens had been isolated by the common students and had been rendered too weak to make the AMU administration bend. This particular assurance convinced the common students that the Controller and the Proctor are hands in gloves with these lumpens . This is also testified by the fact that these lumpens, while tearing away the answer scripts on 17th April, took every care not to disrupt the exams in the D/O Physics where their patrons like Prof Rahimullah, Prof Qaiyum, Prof. Irfan are leaving no stone unturned to get Mr Rizwan empanelled. Rahimullah is already minting money by supplying Air Conditioners, as he is MIC Purchase.

5. There are also speculations that by creating acute lawlessness, the process of empanelment is being delayed and the AMUSU President (and his patrons among teachers) is/are trying to extract admissions from the ‘weak’ and corrupt administration of AMU. This becomes more evident because the AMUSU has demanded the replacement of all ‘top-guns’ except the officiating VC, which means – “Put such a long list of demands that nothing is accepted and let the crises perpetuate”. This has also diluted the pragmatic, uni-focussed demand of the replacement of the Proctor, a saving grace for the Proctor, whose resignation is yet to be accepted officially; after all he has to vote for the VC’s panel.

6. There are also speculations that the people of western UP have got alarmed with the hard working students of Bihar whose greater success rate in different competitive exams of AMU have threatened the easy going students of western UP, whose proportion (in the results of the entrance tests for the courses like MBBS, B.Tech, MBA) is falling. So, they want to terrify the Bihar students. There are fears that every year such killings will be repeated before the entrance tests.

THEREFORE
SOLUTION: The AMU Community spread across the globe, must insist on the demand of CBI enquiry into the entire series of occurrences since 5th of April 2007. The outgoing VC, Naseem Ahmad must be persuaded to open his mouth as to why did he leave AMU in such manner without accomplishing his onerous but important task of empanelment of the next VC? Health excuse is a lame excuse, as he has reported his duties in Haryana. People in AMU speculate that the top administrator (s) of AMU (the Proctor, DSW, Controller, Registrar) have let him down and he was left with no other choice but to run away from AMU. The guilt must be fixed and guilty must be booked.
