Malegaon: Despite soaring
temperature and intense heat, more than 1200 Civil Services
aspirants thronged the Abdullah Ash-Shae Auditorium of Mansoora in
Malegaon April 09 to listen to the experts who in a marathon
lecture series unveiled the secrets of cracking the UPSC and state
services examinations in a truly effective and useful way.
That the workshop was held at a place three kms away from the
actual town did not deter the participants from reaching the
venue. By motorcycles, bicycles, auto rickshaws and many of them
walking, they were all in their seats hours before the scheduled
time.
“We were overwhelmed by the huge response and had to call for
additional arrangements in the last minute to accommodate the
participants”, Mansur Khan of Jamia Mohammadia Education Society
said to ummid.com.
The workshop to guide the Muslim youths for the civil services
exams was jointly organised by Jamia Mohammadia Education Society
(JMES) and National Awakening and Development of Youth (NADY). It
was aimed at encouraging the students to appear for the coveted
exams to improve their representation in the civil services.
“Since the Muslim representation in the civil services is very
low, we decided to organise this workshop so that the students get
an idea of what the exams actually are and what are the
difficulties a student can face if he or she decides to appear for
the exams”, Arshad Mukhtar, president of Jamia Mohammadia
Education Society said.
The organisers had invited Atul Lande of Synergy Study Point, Pune
and Farooque Naikwadi of Mumbai to deliver special lectures on the
topic.
“Young and bright graduates should vouch for respected positions
in the permeant executive arm of the country as the first career
option. Once they decide on this, what they need is the proper
guidance to crack the UPSC and MPSC exams”, Atul Lande, who
travelled from Pune to address the workshop, said while applauding
the organisers.
“Contrary to the general perception, the civil services exams are
neither tough nor are meant only for meritorious students. One
just requires a systematic study and targeted approach to clear
these exams”, Farooque Naikwadi said while giving examples of the
people who cleared the exams despite being not so good in studies.
The workshop, which was followed by an open question and answer
session, also saw screening of a documentary film on the topic.
Impressed by the overwhelming response, the organisers not only
decided to arrange the workshop every year, but in an important
move, declared to support and coach 15 selected students of the
town for the civil services exams.
