Faiz-e-Aam
Muslim Inter College was established in 1998 in the village
Sheikhpur Jafar under Faiz-e-Aam
Muslim Educational Society, FAIZABAD.
It is situated 109 Kms east of Lucknow-Faizabad national highway.
This village and the surrounding villages have about 1.5 lac Muslim
population. Faiz-e-Aam Muslim Inter College came into existence in
five thatched rooms up to Vth standard. The inspiration for its
foundation was the survey reports conducted by various organizations
that 70% Muslims live below poverty line, 50% are illiterate and
more than 20%
of their children don't attend school. It
opened its door
to the children without any
religious, linguistic or racial discrimination.
Introduction
Faizabad and Ayodhya twin
cities
situated on the bank of the river Ghaghra. It is educationally
backward district of U P. Large number of children do not go
to school here. They work on petty jobs engaged by their own
parents. Encountering misery at large scale in these areas,
three educational societies of Faizabad, working in cohesion,
conducted educational and economic survey of Muslims in the
urban and rural areas of Faizabad, in 1998. The survey revealed
in black and white what the management of societies had already
suspected. Illiteracy and poverty were dominating the community
completely, supporting and reinforcing each other. The damage
was being done at a furious pace, with an intensity no outside
enemy could match. Something was required to be done, quickly
and efficiently, to check this continuous slide. |
