From the very inception of Aligarh Movement, there are people who were passionate about our Alma Mater and concerned about the community. We are glad that we still have the some people among us whose passion and love for Alma Mater and concern for the community can not be questioned. You may disagree with them over the mechanism which they follows but can not question their integrity and love and passion to help community One such person is Dr. Mohsin Raza, one of the founder of Sultan Jahan Coaching Center.

Dr. Mohsin Raza is an AMU alum and also served as a faculty in the University and then moved to Oman. Now after retirement from his job in Oman, he is back to his favorite place, Aligarh. Dr. Raza had served as President of AMU Student's Union. I came to know about him through AMUNetwork and Dr. Shaheer Khan intruduced me to this wonderful person. Since many years I was interacting him via email, phone but never got the opportunity to meet him in person. When I reached Aligarh on 22nd August 2011 and updated my status on facebook about my presence in Aligarh. I received first phone call from Dr. Raza. We decided to meet. Even though, it was Ramazan and summer was still in its peak form in Aligarh, I paid a visit to his residence in Ek-Minar Masjid area. Of course it was a great pleasure to spend quality time with him and had a fruitful discussion from AMU affairs to Alumni affairs, his plans for Senior Citizen Emergency Response Project and of course his dream project Sultan Jahan Coaching Center.

Next day, we paid a visit to Sultan Jahan Coaching Center and Sultan Jahan Manzil. I knew Sultan Jahan Coaching Center since my student days. In 1989-90, when I was in class XII, there were only 2 known Coaching Centers for Medical and Engineering competitions, one was Quality Coaching run by Dr. R.N. Singh somewhere on Ramghat Road and the other one was Sultan Jahan Coaching Center run by Muslim Socail Uplift Society (MSUS) of India at Sultan Jahan Manzil in Shamshad Market. I did not attended any one of them but most of my friends from hostel attended Sultan Jahan Coaching. There was some other attraction to it which I am skipping for now. Sultan Jahan Coaching Center has come so far and now became a self sustained project of MSUS of India. Dr. Mohsin Raza is one of the key figure in its formation and growth. The efforts of other people should also be acknowledged and it will be injustice if I do not mention the name of Prof. A.R. Kidwai , Dr. Asim and Dr. Amirullah Khan, who played key role and became instrumental to take MSUS and Sulatn Jahan Coaching Center to next level. They developed their own facility and started a lot of other projects and activities to help the community. I do not find any website of All India Muslim Social Uplift Society to shed more light on their activities. It will be a wonderful idea if they come up with a website to let us know about their activities and how we can help them to take it to the next level.

During my stay in Aligarh, I met Dr. Raza few more times and every time, his passion and zeal to help the community was very much visible. I pray him to be more focus on his goals and will always be a pleasure to spend quality time with him as well as work with him for the betterment of community.

Pictures speaks a thousand word and here are those few thousand words which I listened with my own eyes and captured in my camera during my visit to Sultan Jahan Manzil and Coaching Center of All India Muslim Social Uplift Society.
