RECORDER REPORT

HYDERABAD: Bureau of Students Tutorial Guidance/Counselling Services and Co-curricular Activities (STAGS), University of Sindh, Jamshoro organised Inter-department Online Poem-telling Contest via its official Facebook page.

SU Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Fateh Muhammad Burfat presided over the event, whereas, eminent poets Dr Abid Mazhar and Waqar Ahmed Waqar were the Jury for the Sindhi and Urdu streams of the competitions respectively.

Dr Burfat in his presidential remarks said that poem-telling was an inspiring competition for students in universities to learn and to recite poems by heart.

“The students foster deep personal connections with the poems chosen and bring poetry alive for diverse audiences. These kinds of contests successfully engage young people from diverse social backgrounds in personal discovery of the pleasures of poetry, as they become able to understand verse at a deeper level,” the VC observed.

Dr Burfat said he was extremely glad to witness positivity of SU students, who he said, he found equally active on the co-curricular front alongside already proving their mettle in the curricular domain.

He applauded and felicitated Director STAGS Dr Sumera Umrani and STAGS officials/programme coordinators Muhammad Junaid Malik and Salal Ahmed Mughal for their impressive and dedicated efforts towards successful organization of the programme.
