something serious...

Vice Chancellor of Jamia with his welcome address

Addressing Jamia community

And the audience is listening

Speech ended, welcome again

And he is happy, more happy

Rakhshanda Jalil, Media Cordinator giving vote of thanks

And now leaving

...has something to say...before leaving

Mingling with the Jamia community

This man in cap, wearing 'full-time' beard, said, "we appreciate your lecture" and Honble governer hugged him

And he left...
