Patna, BIHAR :
Patna:
A career awareness program on civil services was held at Dr. Usman Ghani Imarat Girls’ Institute in Patna on 26 September 2021.
The program started with recitation of the Holy Quran.
While talking on ‘What is Civil Services’, Mohammad Naushad Ansari, Hon’y vice chairman of the Institute, through a power-point presentation, elaborated details on the profession of civil services, the rewards and challenges of being in civil services. He emphasised that all graduates are eligible to appear in this exam. They can definitely crack and get a good rank provided they plan their preparation under good guidance and work very hard. It is seen that a good number of candidates qualifying in civil services exams come from lower strata of the society. “Civil Servants of different services are the officers behind implementation of government development plans. They are the people who keep law and order, and work as a link between the public and the government”, he stated.
The chief guest, Mr. M W Ansari, former Director General of Police, Chhattisgarh spoke on the topic ‘Career in Civil Services: Criteria, roles and opportunities’. He stated that the prestige, power and the status that one acquires after entering civil services is immense and unparalleled. Besides, this service provides opportunity to serve the society and the nation at a larger scale. More than 10 lakh students apply for this exam each year. The number of aspirants is increasing every year. This year 761 students have cracked this prestigious exam, out of which only 31 students are from the Muslim community. It is too low considering their population. We require good number of quality institutions, proper guidance and good mentors so that chances of success brighten considerably. In particular, he pointed out that the proportion of Muslim women in these services is negligible. The community cannot prosper without bringing quality education among their women. He also appreciated the contribution of Dr. Usman Ghani Imarat Girls’ Institute in imparting education to the weaker sections of the society with limited resources. In the question and answer session he advised the students that the preparation for Civil Services exam should start from tenth class itself. Bihar had been contributing a good number of Civil Servants every year and this year’s topper in the exam is from Bihar only.
Mr. Khurshid Anwar Arfi, Senior journalist, renowned author of many books and Hon’y chairman of the institute, in his presidential address, emphasised that the community must focus on quality education which should enable new generation to successfully face the modern challenges. The other area of attention should be job-oriented courses and professional educational.
This institute offers various courses viz., BCA, BBA, B Lib. Sc, DCA, Diploma in Dress Designing etc which gives immense opportunity to girls to gain access into good professions and earnings.
He informed that the institute has a plan to organise similar career guidance programs and will be providing all the assistance needed to the Civil Services aspirants for state as well as for UPSC exams.
He thanked all the honorary members of the institute including Mr. Enam Khan, Secretary of the institute, for dedicating his time and energy for the institution’s development.
He also thanked all the teachers and, in particular, Mrs. Ruby Nishat, for offering her services to the institute voluntarily for over two years.
He acknowledged and offered dua for Late Maulana Wali Rahmani who worked hard for development of Institute’s building and infrastructure.
The program was attended by a large number of students, teachers and others. The welcome address was delivered by Mrs. Rupa Sharma, Principal of the Institute and vote of thanks was given by Mrs. Nuzhat Ghousiya . The girls put forward various questions and got enlightened. They noted down details of study plan for the exam and also felt ignited to write this exam.
