Under the leadership of Dr. Maqsood Ahmed, the Nizamia Education Group has been fixated on its goal of uplifting the lives of the socio-economically downtrodden children of India through proper access to quality education. The organization's indigenous efforts have helped more than 10,000 students through its free counseling sessions and education consultancy services.
Starting its journey from the state of Jammu & Kashmir, Nizamia Education Group’s circle of operation has spanned across the states of the North-Eastern region and Bihar. They have already shaped the future of more than 10,000 students and plan to provide education to 1,00,000 students by the year 2025. Students from other South Asian countries and Africa have also taken the advantage of the NEG platform to pursue their career dream. With a human development approach, Dr. Maqsood has fixated on his goal of fostering higher autonomous citizens who will come out of their underprivileged backgrounds and embrace alternative lifestyles.
Uplifting underprivileged sections of society with proper guidance
The lack of access to quality education is a major contributor to India’s prevailing social issue of poverty. Nizamia Education Group seeks to eliminate this educational inequality in India through able guidance and support. Since 2012 when the foundation was founded to promote literacy and higher learning in the country, it has undertaken several initiatives to improve the lives of deserving students through its education consultancy services. The idea behind the foundation of the Nizamia Education Group is to build a strong foundation in language and social skills in a safe, secure, and happy learning environment. From providing coaching and education consultancy services to the disadvantaged students to conducting Nizamia Scholarship Test (NST), a merit-based scholarship exam, every year, Nizamia Education Group is aiming at imparting scholarship to right and meritorious candidates without any discrimination.
Eyeballing the need for a comprehensive counseling service for Indian students from underprivileged backgrounds, Dr. Maqsood was driven to lay the foundation of NEG in 2012. Since its independence, India has been careful in developing its higher education sector to promote the project of nation-building. There have been several universities, colleges, and other higher education institutions established to eliminate the higher education inequality in India. However, lack of access to quality higher education and livelihood is still a burning issue in India. Out of this urgency, Dr. Maqsood laid the foundation of his unconditional consultancy services so that no student has to suffer from discrimination when it comes to higher education.
