Malegaon:
Malegaon – the Muslim dominated textile town in
North Maharashtra finally got its first Engineering College June25
yesterday. The foundation stone of the impressive college named as Maulana Mukhtar Ahmed Nadvi College of Engineering and Technology
(MMANCET) was
laid by General Secretary, All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB)
and Chairman, Rahmani Foundation, Maulana Sayyad Mohd Wali Rhamani.
Along with the foundation stone of the engineering college, the
inauguration of Mohammadia Dialysis Centre and the foundation stone
laying ceremony of As-Shae Girls Hostel were also held during
yesterday’s function.
The college, which will begin academic activities from the next year,
will be the first degree college in Malegaon. En-route to becoming the first ‘Integrated Centre’ of the region,
it is
named after renowned Muslim scholar, author and educationalist Maulana Mukhtar Ahmed Nadvi. Besides building around 400 Masajid
all across India, Maulana Nadvi was founder of Mansoora – the
huge educational complex that hosts Jamia Mohammadia, Mohammadia
Tibbiya College and Kulliya Aisha Siddiqa for girls in Malegon.
Maulana Nadvi was known for the unique curriculum and syllabus he
had designed for the Madrsa students. The syllabus is
successfully running in various Madaris ever since its
introduction at Jamia Mohammdia, Malegaon in 1978.

“Maulana Mukhtar
Nadvi ever since establishing Jamia Mohammadia in 1978 had always
looked at this campus as a huge University. With the
establishment of the Engineering College, we are on course towards
converting his dream into a reality”, says Arshad Mukhtar. Arshad, who
took the reins under his control after Maulana Nadvi’s death, was
speaking to ummid.com after the foundation stone laying ceremony.
A young and
ambitious son of Maulana Mukhtar Nadvi, Arshad does not want to stop
here. He wants to take this education hub beyond his father’s dream. “I want Malegaon,
which is known for its textile products, to be known worldwide as a Knowledge
City instead”, he pledges.
The Muslim
dominated textile town in Maharashtra that has a population of more
than half a million people always lacked in quality institutions.
Though the town has few colleges of education, two Arts, Science &
Commerce Colleges, one Pharmacy College and one Tibbia College, it
does not have any degree college for professional and engineering
courses.
Moreover, since most of the people in the town are coming
from economically and socially backward sections, absence of
engineering college was also resulting in large-scale dropout cases. Establishment of Maulana Mukhtar Ahmed Nadvi College of Engineering
and Technology (MMANCET) in Malegaon is certain to help in
addressing quite a few number of issues besides providing quality
degree courses to the people.
Along with the
foundation stone ceremony of Maulana Mukhtar Ahmed Nadvi College of
Engineering and Technology (MMANCET), the inaugural function of
Mohammadia Dialysis Centre was also done yesterday. The centre
having two dialysis machines installed at Mohammadia Tibbia College in Mansoora
- a Unani Hub famous for its innovative rearmament for patents
affected by paralysis - was inaugurated by Maulana
Wali Rahmani on the same day. The dialysis machines are donated by the Mumbai based Al-Humd
Trust and will render the services free of cost.
Yet another highlight of the day was the foundation
stone laying ceremony of the new hostel building for the girls
studying at Kulliya Aisha Siddiqua. The foundation stone for this
building was laid by Dr. Fazlur Rahman Madani.
