Jammu, December 16, KDC: The People’s Democratic Party President and Former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today fondly recalled the contributions of Dr. Masud Choudhary, former Vice-Chancellor of Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University (BGSBU) and Chairman of Gujjar Desh Charitable Trust, on his first death anniversary.
PDP President Mehbooba Mufti paid heartfelt tributes to Dr. Choudhary at an event organized at GDCT Channi, Jammu.
Recalling his contributions to education and philanthropy, the former Chief Minister said his legacy will continue to inspire future generations.
Widely known as Sir Syed of Gujjar Community for his untiring efforts in areas of social and educational awakening, Dr Chaudhary retired as Additional Director General of Police in 2004.
Soon after that he was appointed by Mufti Sahab as the founder Vice-Chancellor of the Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University in Rajouri where he eventually went on to spent two tenures.
He shaped up the university on modern lines and ensured that the institution carries on a progressive outlook.
“When Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University was established Mufti Sahab entrusted Masud sb with the job, knowing he can deliver. Dr Sb reluctantly pursued the cause of Tribal community and especially focused on their education and empowerment,” Mehbooba Mufti said.
On the occasion Mehbooba Mufti also prayed for the lasting peace of his departed soul and hoped the flame of empowerment he lit will continue to empower the lives of the members of tribal community.
