Coaching and Guidance for Muslim Students for IAS, IPS & IFS
















Muhammed Qaiser Abdul Haque, 29/ 32nd rank, Civil Services Exam, 2006 One of eleven children of a former powerloom worker, now grocer, in the communally sensitive textile town of Malegaon, Maharashtra, he went to school there, then did his Masters from Pune. He joined a civil services study circle for backward and minority students at Hamdard University in Delhi. "I have seen the lack of resources on the ground, no proper hospital, or colleges.... I see my IAS job as that of a middleman, between the government and the people, and I feel responsible to wards all the people, not just those of my community."


“This year result shows that Muslim representation for this year’s UPSC exams stands at 3.92%, a better progress compared to 3.6% in 2006 and 3.1% in 2007”, Omair Anas of Center for West Asian Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University said to ummid.com adding, “However the achievement is still not at par and the institutions engaged in coaching the Muslim students for UPSC exams should pay special attention to contribute substantially in administrative services.”




Owing to the poor representation of Muslims in the Union Public Service sector, the Muslim Institutions like Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), Jamia Hamdard, Delhi and Jamia Millia Islamia, Delhi are running special coaching classes for UPSC students since past three years.


The Haj Committee of India has in the wider interest of Muslims established a Coaching & Guidance Cell in its Haj House, at Palton Road, CST, Mumbai. The main purpose of setting up of this cell is to prepare young Muslim Graduate & P.G. Degree holders for the IAS and Allied Services Examinations conducted by the UPSC. The Cell has a Library-cum-Reading Room, three class rooms for lectures & group discussions, Director’s Chamber, Administrative Office, 10 partially furnished rooms for candidates, a Dining Hall and a Reception Hall.

The recommended candidates would be eligible for various coveted government posts including Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS), Indian Police Service (IPS) and Central Services-Group ‘A’ and Group ‘B’.



Appointment to the various services will be made according to the number of vacancies available with due consideration to the provisions contained in Rules 2 and 19 of the Rules of the Examination and subject to the final decision of the Supreme Court / High Court / C.A.Ts. on the S.L.Ps. / R.As/ W.Ps.
