HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS TO JUSTICE BASHEER AHMED SAYEED COLLEGE FOR WOMEN

V. M. Khaleelur Rahman

It gives us great pleasure to know from Mr. Moosa Raza saheb, Chairman, The South India Education Trust (SIET), Chennai that the Justice Basheer Ahmed Sayeed College for Women has been selected as a College with Potential for Excellence by the University Grants Commission (UGC) and that it will get a grant of Rs.1.5 crore for spending on research, infrastructure development and other activities. 

JBAS College is one of the seven arts and science colleges selected for the prestigious status in Tamil Nadu. 

The list of the seven colleges are as follows:

1. Madras Christian College, Chennai 2. DG Vaishnav College, Chennai 3. Stella Maris College, Chennai 4. Justice Basheer Ahmed Sayeed College for Women, Chennai 5. Women's Christian College, Chennai 6. Vivekananda College, Madurai and 7.CMS College, Coimbatore. 

The Muslim community will be happy to know the achievement of the JBAS College which is the creation of the great reformer and educational visionary Justice Basheer Ahmed Sayeed saheb. He had to face many hardships in establishing this college. His strong determination and missionary zeal brought him success. His service to the educational uplift of the Muslim community is great. 

The JBAS College was and is even today an important instrument in making the Muslim community realize the importance of higher education for women. But for this College the educational advancement of the Muslim girls would not have been what it is today. 

Our hearty congratulations to the SIET Management, particularly its Chairman Mr. Moosa Raza saheb and all other office bearers, principals, teaching and non-teaching staff, students and their parents for the great success the College has achieved.

The Management would do well to establish a women’s hostel for the benefit of students who hail from different faraway places. It will attract more students and help them get higher education. 

Let us all pray and co-operate with the College to attain even greater success.
