Gujrat: The Govt. of the Punjab have allocated Rs. 10 billion for PEEF
scholarship funds; out of which Rs. 8 billion have already been
delivered, to PEEF. We are regularly dispensing scholarships worth Rs.
12 million, on the basis of merit to more than 30 thousand students. In
the University of Gujrat (UOG) alone, 263 students are being dispensed
scholarships worth 20 million rupees. I am pretty confident that that
this service of ours shall bear fruits of creativity, innovation and
research. I feel a pleasant, freshness, vibrancy and gusto in the
ambience of UOG. This creation of the intellectual environment is the
greatest contribution of the charismatic leadership of the University.
These ideas were expressed by PEEF Vice Chairman Dr Mohammad Amjad Saqib
as Chief Guest in a ceremony of distribution of cheques to more than 70
students. Vice Chancellor Professor Dr. Mohammad Nizamuddin in his
address to the house recalled that UOG is at all times concerned about
the welfare of talented but poor students. We have dispensed 11 million
rupees among the deserving this year. We are establishing an Endowment
Fund of Rs. 60 million, to support national talent constrained by
financial resources. We are working on a humanitarian paradigm of
financially supporting each and every deserving student, so that
financial constrains do not inhibit talent in burgeoning into
intelligence and creativity. He thanked the Chief Guest and expressed
his hope of PEEFs continued financial support to the scholars of this
university. The event was organized by the Student Services Center
(SSC) and on its behalf its director Ms. Aneesa Rahat also thanked the
guests. Khawar Haneef and Zakria Kanwal on behalf of scholarship winners
extolled the vision of Chief Minister Mr. Shahbaz Shareef who is the
true architect of this visionary scheme of funding the needy
intellectuals.
