Graduation Day Celebration of Batch 2025 of Amaozish-e-Urdu

The evening of 15th September 2025 marked a memorable occasion as the Graduation Ceremony of Amaozish-e-Urdu, the free Urdu learning initiative led by Dr. Tejinder Singh Rawal was celebrated with warmth, gratitude, and joy at the India Peace Centre, Nagpur.

Over the last two months, nearly 60 students successfully completed the Certificate Course in Urdu, a program that has been instrumental in reviving love for the Urdu language among learners of all ages and backgrounds. As described on the Nagpur Book Club website, Amaozish-e-Urdu is not just a language school but a cultural initiative — one that offers Urdu education free of cost, keeping alive the rich literary and poetic tradition of the language. Importantly, the class is held once a year, and registrations for the next batch are already open here.

The ceremony began with a warm welcome to Dr. Tejinder Singh Rawal and Mrs. Alefia Master, who were greeted with beautiful planters by Ankita Rathor and Vijay Asrani.

Following the welcome, Ritu Kanojia and Rohit Tokhi presented mementos on behalf of the entire batch, expressing gratitude for the immense love and effort put in by the teachers. Tokens of appreciation were also given — Dr. Naznin presented a gift to Dr. Rawal, while Renu Soni and Ishvinder Mam jointly honored Alefia Mam.

The moment was made sweeter with a symbolic cake-cutting ceremony, featuring themed cupcakes brought by Farzin Malak.

In his address, Dr. Rawal congratulated the students for completing the course with “flying colours.” He encouraged them to continue their learning journey and become true ambassadors of the Urdu language, carrying forward its elegance and heritage.

Mrs. Alefia Master, in a moving gesture, shared beautifully written personalized quotes for each student — highlighting their individual learning journeys and qualities. Her address, prepared with care, left a lasting impression on the audience.

Mrs. Alefia Master very passionately and ably supports Dr Rawal in this initiative.

The most awaited part of the evening was the Certificate Distribution Ceremony, with Dr. Rawal personally handing certificates to each of the 60 graduates. With assistance from Shreyash, the names were called out in order, and the hall echoed with applause for every student’s achievement.

This was followed by lively student performances by Jyotimani Rocque, Mohnish Zade, Dinesh Dhawane, Dr. Himmat Meshram, Tushar Kanti, Gayatri Tadlimbekar, Ojas Akre, Shobit Jain, Aashu Mandeep Kaur, Dr. Vijay Asrani, and Alok Tiwari. Their presentations — ranging from Urdu poetry, readings to dance and reflections — beautifully showcased how much the batch had imbibed and grown in just two months.

The evening was further graced by the presence of distinguished Guests of Honor — Mrs. Simi Rawal, Mr. Amarjit Singh Matharu, Mrs. Rinku Matharu, and Mrs. Lata Tokhi.

The event was thoughtfully and engagingly conducted by RJ Tejal, assisted by Pragya Gupta, whose presence and coordination added warmth and elegance to the program.

The evening concluded with a hearty Biryani dinner, where students and teachers shared conversations, laughter, and reflections on their collective journey of learning.

The Amaozish-e-Urdu Graduation Day was more than just a ceremony; it was a celebration of language, culture, and community. It stood as a reminder of how learning Urdu is not merely about mastering a script but about embracing a world of poetry, elegance, and timeless heritage.

✨ Truly, the spirit of Urdu came alive — in words, in gratitude, and in togetherness.
