Muslim forum names scholarship after Narendra Modi

May 18, 2016

Meerut, May 18: The Aligarh-based Forum for Muslim Studies and Analysis has decided to institute a scholarship for economically backward Muslim students who are in the 12th standard or doing graduation in the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. To begin with, it will be given to 10 students.

NaMobhaktThe organisation's director Jasim Mohammad is credited with writing the Prime Minister's first Urdu biography, Narendrabhai Modi — Farsh Se Arsh Tak (Narendrabhai Modi – From the ground to the sky).

The first of the proposed five volumes was launched by Mr. Modi on March 5. A volume in Hindi that he compiled and edited, titled Prime Minister Sri Narendra Modi Ki Mann Ki Baat, is expected to be published shortly.

Earlier, Dr. Jasim was seen to be close to the UPA government and, as part of the organisation Millat Bedari Muhim, had even campaigned for “secular forces” along with filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt in the 2014 general election.

Explaining why he named the scholarship after Mr. Modi, Dr. Jasim says, “He is taking the country on the path of development.”

He also believes that Mr. Modi is genuinely concerned about the problems the minority community faces.

“I instituted the scholarship to help empower students from the minority community. Once empowered, these students will make our country proud,” he says. “Ten scholarships of Rs. 5,000 each will be given this year from August 2016. From the next year, both the number of scholarships and the amount will be increased.”

This name sake muslim Jasim is another Shahnawaz khan who is a chela and chaddi of Feku and bjp. these people have sold their belief for the sake of power and money. shame on you Jasim for being so cheap for power + money. did you forget that Allah is the one who blesses us with power + wealth. Have you lost faith in Allah and are so faithful and trustful to these anti humanity. BJP is 100 percent against Muslims and Islam and this is fact. Are you also a part of them. If this is the case you should change your name to Jasim Rama Modi or Jasim Laxman Shah. Shame on people like you have joined hands with the enemies of Muslims. In sha Allah you will be taught a good lesson by the Creator and you will find no place to hide.

Bengaluru, Feb 12: Karnataka Sanghatanegala Okkoota, a congregation of various pro-Kannada organisations, has called for a state-wide bandh in Karnataka on Thursday (13 February 2020) demanding reservation in jobs for Kannadigas in both government and private sectors.

The Karnataka bandh, which will begin from 6 am to 6 pm, is likely to impact life in Bengaluru as well as in other parts of the state. Interestingly, Ola and Uber drivers have also extended support to the bandh. 

In Bengaluru, some other drivers’ associations, including Jai Bharatha Vehicle Owners and Drivers Association and Adarsha Auto and Taxi Union have also supported the bandh.

It is not yet clear as to whether the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) staff and workers associations will back Thursday’s bandh.

Several other organisations like the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce (KFCC), Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), and Lorry Owners Association have supported the February 13 bandh.

In view of the bandh call, schools, colleges and hospitals across Karnataka are likely to remain closed on Thursday.

The Sarojini Mahishi report, which in 1984 suggested that Kannadigas should be given some reservation in jobs in private companies, public sector undertakings and multinational companies, is yet to be implemented.

It is to be noted that Sarojini Mahishi, a four-time MP and Janatha party leader, was appointed by the Ramakrishna Hegde government to head the panel in 1983. The committee submitted an interim report in June 1984. However, a final report was tabled in December 1986 with 58 recommendations, of which the Karnataka government had accepted 45.
