Mumbai: The death of Hazrat Maulana Ghulam Mohammad Vastanvi, who was always concerned for the welfare of the Muslim Ummah and set a major milestone in the field of education, is a great tragedy. The pain of which will be felt by every member of the Muslim Ummah.
Paying tribute to this sad demise, Member of Assembly Abu Asim Azmi said that he was a modern scholar and thinker of the ancient style. He presented a moderate and successful combination of ancient and modern sciences before the nation and single-handedly did what many organizations and associations could not have done together. Perhaps this was a blessing in continuing individual efforts with sincerity and a mission instead of trying to become a leader through manipulation politics.
May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala forgive Maulana, raise his ranks and grant patience to his family, the underprivileged, his students and the wise, Amen.

Mumbai: In the wake of the unavailability of train tickets for North Indians from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, Samajwadi Party legislator Raees Sheikh on Saturday demanded that the Railways run special trains from Mumbai to these states. Sheikh made the demand after images of crowding of people on train tracks and railway platforms and lack of basic civic amenities went viral on social media. A large number of people from the North Indian community are upset due to the lack of proper train services.

In his letter to Railway Minister Ashwini Vishnu, Sheikh said that railway stations like Bandra Terminus, Lokmanya Tilak Terminus (LTT) and Dadar are crowded with passengers for tickets. A large number of North Indians travel to Uttar Pradesh and Bihar during the summer, which coincides with the wedding season. Lack of sufficient trains and resulting overcrowding are causing severe hardship to the North Indian community in Mumbai, said MLA Raees Sheikh, who demanded that the Railways immediately run special trains from Mumbai to Gorakhpur, Patna and other places in Purvanchal, departing from Bandra, LTT and CST stations. Sheikh added, “The Railways should also set up proper help desks and GRP assistance booths at major stations in Mumbai to manage the crowd and assist passengers.” He further stressed on the need to add additional general and sleeper coaches in all trains going to UP to accommodate the rush. He also urged the Railways to take all necessary steps to ensure better coordination with the authorities concerned.
