Primary Objective
250 students to be sponsored this year [poorest group, all from Govt. schools of Bihar & Jharkhand they constitute more than 90% of school-going Muslim students]
Detailed Objectives
Minimize the level of drop-out among the school-going students of the minority community and other underprivileged communities, gradually, to a zero level, within ten years of launching this project. This is expected to inspire a large percentage of boys and girls to go to school and madrasas rather than sit at home or engage in menial work. As per the Sachar Report, more than 50% of the Muslim boys and girls in rural areas and more than 60% of those in urban areas neither go to schools nor to madrasas. In premier colleges, only 4% of UG students and 2% of Post Graduate students are Muslims. How can we demand more than 4% of jobs in any sector? You are about to change the economic condition of a few families, in in-sha Allah.
Admissions arranged for 250 poor students (seats reserved in polytechnic colleges) – admission fees & and exam fees arranged already for private colleges [2023-2026]; govt. Fees are only minimal.
Admissions are to be finalized in July; need your commitment (and blessings) first installment to be sent after Ramadan. The 2nd installment is in November/December. These govt. School students (from extremely poor economic backgrounds) have just passed their 10th board exam (in Bihar) or waiting for their results (in Jharkhand). They have received coaching in Bihar Anjuman’s Rahbar coaching centers (8th grade to 10th grade) – only government school students receive coaching, here, on a first-come-first-served basis (without any merit test) those who might otherwise have been thrown out of the educational mainstream, into possibly unlawful areas of activities. You are about to save many families from their poverty cycle.
The ultimate objective is to attain 100% literacy, for all the communities, and bring the deprived sections of the communities at par with the privileged sections.
Unfortunately, most of the Muslim social groups miss out on the vital point raised by us for a long, regarding the cause of the percentage of Muslim representation in civil services, judiciary, and other government jobs (or higher education) – remaining stagnant at 2.5 to 3. It’s important to ask once again what we have always asked.
Where’s the raw material?
Sachar Committee report says we are only 4% among the Indian graduates. So, isn’t the 3% in UPSC an excellent share? It also shows that the percentage of ages applying for the coveted service is also very good.So, basically, the intervention of NGOs should be focused at increasing the percentage of raw material. Bihar Anjuman’s intervention is just at the right level – the school.
Let’s look further into the problem.
A high-level committee formed to suggest measures to improve the conditions of Muslims after the release of the Sachar Committee report says 94.5% of Muslims are actually below the poverty line. Which schools can these families send their wards to?To government schools where no teaching takes place. So, if we see 4% graduates, we shouldn’t be surprised at all. Right? So, please hold your breath for a while, and now try to see where we must intervene.
Bihar Anjuman has been coaching the govt school children of 8th, 9th, and 10th grades so that the pass percent of this 94.5 % at the 10th board level could rise. The only criterion of selection in these Rahbar Coaching Centres is the enrollment of a student in govt school – this is clear proof of his being from a BPL family.Unless we prescribe the medicine for the right disease, we might be wasting our energy and resources by deploying them in cosmetic maneuvers.
After coaching for 8th, 9th, and 10th grades, the pass-outs of the 10th board from Rahbar Coaching Centres, are further coached to be eligible for admissions to diploma engineering – the shortest route to respectable employment. Join us in the mission, to raise the status of the Indian Muslim community, as a whole.With Allah’s blessings and your support, Bihar Anjuman helps to educate the poorest of the poor boys and girls through RAHBAR Coaching Centers. For the students who have passed the 10th board exams of Bihar & and Jharkhand, in 2023, we have an ambitious plan for this year, which has been devised because of the track record of your support in the past years.
