The FAKHRUDDIN ALI AHMED CENTRE
FOR COACHING AND GUIDANCE (FACC) will implement a scheme for
Civil Services Examination Coaching titled “HOQUE 20”. The
scheme is conceptualised by Mr. Mahbubul Hoque, Chairman, ERD
Foundation, and Chancellor of the University of Science and
Technology, Meghalaya. Under the scheme 20 brilliant
undergraduate students in their first year, mainly from
disadvantaged rural families from North East will be nurtured,
motivated, inspired and guided by Mr.Hoque all through their
undergraduate studies so that at the end of their
undergraduate course, they can compete successfully in All
India Civil Services Examination and realise their dreams. Mr.
Mahbubul Hoque, himself coming from a remote village in
Karimganj district in southern part of Assam, against all
adversity, went to Aligarh Muslim University, where he took
his first class MCA degree. Then he came back to Assam in 2002
to set up his first educational venture-the Central IT
College,Dispur with only four students. He went on to break
all barriers to set up eight educational Institutions
including an engineering college and a technology university
in course of ten years, thus revolutionising the professional
educational scenario in the North East. Now Mr. Hoque wants to
help the brilliant but disadvantaged students from the region
to break the vicious circle of adversity and realise their
dreams. Under the able guidance of Mr.Hoque, already a large
no. of students belonging to disadvantaged families is
undergoing different courses at different Institutions of ERDF
Group free of cost. Now he wants that brilliant students from
disadvantaged families also taste the success in their career
and break the barrier. Hence this scheme-“HOQUE 20”. Mr Hoque
has the vision of convulsing the North Eastern Region of India
with successful IAS aspirants.
The vast potentials of North East Region of
India remains unexplored till date leading to underdevelopment
of the region mainly because of absence of talents from this
region in the decision making process at the various levels of
Central and State Governments of North East. With the success
of “HOQUE 20” NE Region will overcome this deficiency and
necessary developmental activities will take place with right
spirit.
