In a 30-minute meeting with

(AMU) Lieutenant General Zameer Uddin Shah and

support for a museum dedicated to the
university’s founder Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. “The
V-C urged CM Kejriwal to allot a building to the
university for official purposes. He also
informed the CM that AMU is interested in
establishing a museum in Sir Syed’s old haveli
near Daryaganj, which is the birthplace of the
AMU founder. Sir Syed was born in this haveli in
1817,” said Rahat Abrar, consultant, public

As AMU is celebrating the
bicentenary birth anniversary of the founder,
the V-C told Kejriwal that support to the cause
“would be a great tribute to him by the
government of Delhi,” Abrar added. “The
delegation also requested the CM to release the
Waqf property of the university, which is
situated at a prime location in Block-B and D of
Connaught Place. This Waqf property was donated
by Hamid Ali Khan under Waqf Registration, on
September 28, 1945,” said Abrar.
“Though the CM has promised
to try his best for the allotment of an office
space, he has asked the delegation to also
approach the Lieutenant Governor and the Delhi
Development Authority for the same. As for the
Waqf property, the delegation told the CM that
they do not have any ownership records for the
property. The CM has agreed to look into the
matter and get the records checked but the
availability of the records is crucial to any
action being taken on it,” said a government
spokesperson.
The delegation also briefed
Kejriwal on the “minority character” of the
university. “The CM has assured his full support
to the university,” said a statement from AMU.
