Mysuru :

Anjuman-e-Hadeqathul Adab, Mysuru, had organised its 12th Eid Milan programme at Abids Convention Hall in Bannimantap, here yesterday.

The programme started with the recitation of the verses of the Holy Quran by the Anjuman Treasurer M. Noor Ulla Shariff which were translated into English by Ajuman member Muazzam Ahmed Khan Tanveer.

Anjuman member Anees Ghori welcomed the guest and invitees.

Syed Shafi Ahmed, President of the Anjuman, presented a report on the activities and the aims and objectives of Anjuman and paid rich tributes to the founders who established this Anjuman to promote brotherhood and communal harmony in the city of Mysuru. He also lauded the work of the past office-bearers and members.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. K. Javeed Nayeem, former President of the Anjuman, said that only when we are concerned about our neighbour’s pain and problems and embrace one another forgetting that we are from different religions that we become the true followers of our religion.

He cited the example of how in Chhattisgarh, a Muslim by name Razak Khan perform the last rites of Santosh Singh, his neighbour, according to the traditions and customs of Santosh Singh’s religion and one more instance of how in Colaba during Ganesh Chaturthi festival, on a Friday when Hindus saw their Muslim Brethren performing Juma Prayer in a open space outside the Masjid under the scorching sun, they invited them to offer their Namaz in a pendal erected in front of the Temple.

Anjuman member Dr. Irfan Ahmed Riazi presented some Urdu couplets on the present scenario in society.

Viqar Ahmed Sayeed, Assistant Editor, Frontline Magazine, in his keynote address, stressed on the need for establishing communal harmony in society and fostering good relations between members of different communities.

Hazrath Moulana S.M. Abbas Sajjadi, speaking on the occasion, requested Muslims to spread the message of love, brotherhood and communal harmony not just amongst themselves but also across other communities respecting all other religions.

The Moulana lauded the services of the Anjuman in spreading the message of communal harmony which is need of the hour.

Srihari, a member of the Alert Citizens Trust (ACT), speaking on the occasion, stressed on the need to not only protect communal harmony but also the need to make our environment greener by planting more trees. He urged each family to plant at least five saplings and nurture them.

Zee TV Kannada Comedy Khiladi-2008 winner and International Mimicry Artiste Ramesh Babu entertained the audience with his mimicry and jokes and greeted the members of the Anjuman for their efforts to spread the message of peace, brotherhood and harmony.

Anjuman Vice-President S. Moinuddin Pasha proposed a vote of thanks.
