First Close that Note Book

A few years ago a lady posted a request on one of Aligarh discussion groups to know about her grandfather who was the head of a major department of AMU in 1947. Some Aligs sprang into action to help her. They realized that the people who can give information about him were all super seniors. One of them suggested that these people should be tapped to bring their version of AMU history as well as experience into tangible record. Since then some information about senior Aligs have been collected by above mentioned people that is available at some of the links collected here at AAA. It was tried to implement the idea on Miyan too and thus it was declared that we have a note book and notes will be taken on today's discussion for posterity. Miyan was hesitant and promised to do that later on. That was the wish of Lord Most High because Miyan did not live to fulfill that promise. That day he talked only after the note book was closed.
