A brother has reproduced M.K.Gandhi's letter to the Secretary of Student's Union at AMU.
Yours truly is against having a Student's Union at AMU. Even above letter does not change yours truly's mind. In fact circulation of this very-very old letter has a purpose behind it - to strengthen a claim for having a Student's Union at AMU.
LETTER TO THE HONY. SECRETARY, ALIGARH UNIVERSITY UNION January 4, 1937
DEAR FRIEND,
In spite of our differences in post-Khilafat days, I have nothing but pleasant
memories of my association with Maulana Mohamed Ali whom I miss on so many
difficult occasions. You cannot celebrate the Mohamed Ali Day better than by all
of you resolving to establish cordial unity with Hindus. Brotherhood which
Islam teaches is a mockery if it excludes people belonging to the other faiths.
Yours sincerely,
M. K. GANDHI
THE HONY. SECRETARY
MUSLIM UNIVERSITY UNION
ALIGARH, U.P.
