The event, held on November 9, aimed to highlight Iqbal\u2019s intellectual legacy, his philosophy of <em>Khudi<\/em> (selfhood), and his universal message of human dignity, awakening, and self-realization. Faculty members, students, and scholars attended the ceremony in large numbers, reflecting the deep respect for Iqbal\u2019s contributions to literature and ideological thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The principal of the college, Professor Ramesh Kumar Rathore, addressed the gathering and emphasized that Allama Iqbal is not only a revered poet of Pakistan and the Indian subcontinent, but also a globally recognized philosopher-poet whose ideas have influenced generations. He stated that Iqbal\u2019s poetry has been translated into multiple languages and studied across the world. Iqbal is a poet who breathed life into concepts of spiritual elevation, introspection, and intellectual awakening. According to Professor Rathore, Iqbal taught humanity to stand with dignity and to recognize its true potential. He reminded the students that Iqbal did not believe in passiveness; instead, he encouraged humans to embrace struggle, self-discovery, and purposeful living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Rathore elaborated on Iqbal\u2019s philosophy of <em>Khudi<\/em>, noting that it is a philosophy that does not advocate arrogance, but self-awareness and realization of one&#8217;s inner strength. He explained that according to Iqbal, Allah has created human beings as the most distinguished form of creation, and therefore, they must not consider themselves weak or inferior. The message given by Iqbal was to live life with courage, determination, moral strength, and intellectual clarity. He encouraged the students to draw inspiration from Iqbal\u2019s teachings and shape their lives towards meaningful goals. \u201cIf you study with sincerity and work hard to refine your abilities, then each one of you can become the Iqbal of tomorrow,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several faculty members including Professor Ali Bahadur Qaimkhani, Professor Muhammad Mohsin, and Professor Ehsan Ali Laghari also addressed the audience. They discussed Iqbal\u2019s literary journey, his philosophical evolution, and his role in awakening the Muslim identity in the subcontinent. They highlighted that Iqbal\u2019s poetry was not ordinary poetry meant for temporary amusement. Instead, it was a call for self-respect, unity, intellectual freedom, and collective progress. He encouraged the youth to think, to dream, and to rise above limitations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Government Degree College Tandojam organized a graceful and thoughtful event to commemorate the birth anniversary of the great poet-philosopher of the subcontinent, Allama Muhammad Iqbal.
