Falaknuma: The Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU) started their week-long celebrations, paying glowing tributes the prominent freedom fighter and first education Minister of Independent India, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, at its Model School in Falaknuma on Monday.

Dr Mohammad Aslam Parvaiz, the Vice-Chancellor, presided over the inaugural. In his speech, he called upon the students to cultivate good manners and learn from sacrifices of national leaders like Azad. Parents should focus on the good upbringing of the children. He appreciated the Model School students for presenting a cultural programme with a message.

Earlier, the students of MANUU Model School presented a bouquet of cultural performances and won accolades from the guests and the audience. Uzma and Group set the tone for the morning by presenting a beautiful welcome song followed by the dance performance on a song titled "Aaj Hai Sunday" by Sameena & Group. Sumayya and her partners performed a Qawwali, 'Kitna Mushkil Hai Inko Samjhana.' Abdur Rahman presented a symbolic speech of Maulana Azad.

A thematic dance performance, ''Say no to Plastic," touched one and all. Famous poet Allama Iqbal's message to children and youth was vividly enacted by Shaista and Nishat. A play, 'Social Media and Our Youth,' delivered a thought-provoking message to the students.

Science, Arts and Crafts exhibition by students was also inaugurated on the occasion. Senior journalist and MLC Syed Aminul Hasan Jafri was the chief guest and Syeda Salwa Fatima, the first Muslim female pilot from Hyderabad, graced the occasion as guest of honor.
