let us share the memories of aligarh muslim university

hi friends
this starts with the life at aligarh. it s something different from any other part of the world.people use to say that the aligarh, specially the campus of aligarh muslim university is totally a differnet place. if you wan to see unity in diversity just come here. one of my seniors mr.harsh munshi now working with uttar pradesh power corporation as an executive engineer use to say, " every where in the universe the destiny decides your fate but it is aligarh where leaves it all on you.it is you to decide your ways.if you want to exell in studies it is the best place, want a carrier in polititics then it is the most economical and best platform. it is you who have to choose either gandhi giri or bhai giri, but you will never get an opportunity to develope your skills as better as in aligarh"
it is also usually said that campus of amu never sleeps. late night hull gulla, room visits are common. with the start of session there is a special occasion of intro parties at weekends. the dhabagiri is also an undispensable part of amu. the great icons like of dr. rahi masoom raza, dr. naseem uz zafar, dr. basheer badr, all had invested their much of their precious time in dhabagiri. chai garam cahi of aligarh is somehow different in terms of recepie and taste.its a hard tea which is defined as " doodh patti jhonk kar and chini paani rok kar bani chaiiiiii...

friends every one has memories to share and i m sure that we will find this platform a well and good place to live with our memories.


cheers
