Maulana as collector
The selection of a product of Darul Uloom, Deoband, Waseem-ur-Rehman Qasimi, in the IAS, has been widely hailed by Urdu papers. There were big front page advertisements in some papers congratulating Rehman. Writing under the title, ‘Leejiye, Maulana collector ban gaye’ (Look, Maulana has become a collector), a columnist in Delhi-based Sahafat (June 1), contradicts those who criticise the Deoband seminary’s syllabus for not being in conformity with modern times. He has also appreciated the fact that Rehman owes his success to the coaching imparted by an RSS outfit, ‘Sankalp’.
