Shafi Urdu Library, Ekhatha, Gets new Committee

It was a revolutionary step when some students with fresh blood and enthusiasm forced open the Shafi Urdu Library, Ekhatha which was closed for almost a decade, only to find broken chairs, fractured benches, irreparable Almiras and the dismal conditions of precious books completely eaten and infested with woodworms.


Quickly, without wasting any time, the youth committee under Monawwer Sultan Nadwi took the matter in their hand, contacted library committee chairman, secretary and members and convened a general body meeting. 


The chairman and secretary of the Library apologized for  negligence on their parts and consented to dissolve the old committee and appoint a fresh committee to take the charge.


Mr Shamshad Auditor and Mr. Abdul Majeed were appointed unanimously chairman and secretary respectively. 


Mr. Shariq was chosen as Librarian while Nehal Ahsan Durrani, Ashfaqu Ahmad, Hafiz Rizwan Ahmad, Shahe Alam, Nasir Jamal, Tanweer Ahmad and Md. Ali Akhtar were selected members of the committee. Maulana. Imtiyaz Ahmad Nadwi, Maulana Manzoor Ahmad Shamsi and Maulana Monawer Sultan Nadwi were named as supervisors or Sarparasts of the Library.


The new committee immediately took the charge and started the collection of funds and the renovation and repair works of the library.


We hope that very soon we will be able to see the library standing with all its grandeur and dignity, quenching the thrust of knowledge seekers.


S4Xellence deems it a great success at all this happened under its umbrella.

As much as 35 students participated in the competition which ran into several rounds. After the first round, 15 students out of 35 were declared eligible for the second round. Following the second round which lasted for several interesting rounds of question, top five students were declared winners who received grand prizes. In addition, other participants were also presented with encouragement gifts.

The event received huge appreciations and complements from guests and audience that included respected teachers, Scholars, Ulemas, students community and  the general public.
The competition was chaired by Mr, Khursheed Akram, ADM, Bhagalpur and judged by Mr. Shahid Ali and Maulana Imteyaz Ahmad Nadwi. Also, was there, Maulana Md. Mumtaz Ali Mazahiri to grace the event.


Md. Sharique, Nawaz Shahid, Nadeem, Razi, Tanweer, Taqi and others were actively involved and put all the efforts to hold the event and make it a grand success. Thanks to all of them.
The whole event was guided and supervised by Maulana Monawwer Sultan Nadwi who was the principal force behind  the event and key to the success of the same.


We also took this opportunity to introduce our initiative and shed light on its aims, objectives and advantages. We interacted with the people and students and familiarized them with the initiative and distributed membership forms.
We received overwhelming encouragement equally from students and guardians.




Encouraged by the positive responses from the public, we are tempted to think about conducting more such programs with more frequency and intensity and with more preparation in the future.



Qaumi Tanzeem, an Urdu News Paper published from Bihar covered the story of the event.
