Sad demise of Mr. Azizul Hasan Sir

It is extremely disheartening and shocking to share a grief stricken and sorrowful news of sad demise of Mr. Azizul Hasan Sir. Innalillahe-wainnailaihe-rajeoon ! He was a distinguished teacher of Minto Circle and left as Principal of Minto Circle. He nurtured Minto Circle with all possible efforts and contribution. He also honoured the post of Principal of Union School for some time.

He was a very giving, affectionate and energetic person. His charming personality, Queens English pronunciation and depth of understanding was bound to make a mark on any one whom he met. His clean, crisp, creased Safari Suits were a brand in itself. Highly groomed, neatly shaven, tall-thin physique, energetic posture and brilliant speech was a part of his mesmerising personality. He was very fond of reading Science Reporter and even after his retirement he never forgot to get a copy of it.

Each and every AMU old boy from Mau (Mau Nath Bhanjan U.P.) shall ever remain indebted to his selfless care and guidance that he showered on all of us. Hundreds of AMU students from Mau have been taken care of alone by him and his family. They have helped with books, funds, even even staying at his hose in case of non allotment etc. We all together express our gratitude for him as well as his family for all the selfless deeds. He and his family will ever be an icon for everybody who thinks or tries to help the AMU community in all or any of the ways he can.

My father was lucky enough to be his student. He already retired when I met him, I was in +2. It is my extreme pleasure to meet a person of such a calibre. Many Sunday evening I used to visit him. We went out to buy some or the other thing from Shamshad market on Hero Puch which I had then. He preferred to walk though.

I pray to Almighty to bestow inner strength to all family members for surviving this utter painful and sinking incident. We all pray to Almighty for his forgiveness (Maghfirat) from the depth of our heart.
