\u201cNo Misuse, Only Mission\u201d: Dr. Abdul Qadeer Condemns False Allegations Against Shaheen Group<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bidar, August 2025: <\/strong>Dr. Abdul Qadeer, President of the Shaheen Group of Institutions, has strongly rejected allegations of fund misuse made by A. Alam Pasha, calling them \u201cbaseless, irresponsible and malicious attempts to tarnish the reputation\u201d of an institution that has been serving students for more than three decades. He has announced legal action, including a \u20b910 crore defamation claim and possible criminal proceedings, against the accuser.<\/p>\n

Denial of Misuse and Clarification on Scholarships<\/h3>\n

Responding to charges of irregularities in scholarship distribution, Dr. Qadeer said the allegations showed a \u201ccomplete lack of common sense.\u201d
\u201cScholarship amounts are directly deposited into the accounts of students through an official portal. Everyone, even young students, knows this process. Suggesting misuse is absurd,\u201d he said, adding that the system leaves no scope for outside interference.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that Shaheen Group has educated more than 16,000 students across 13 states and has always upheld transparency and accountability in its financial and academic operations.<\/p>\n

Condemnation of Irresponsible Allegations<\/h3>\n

Dr. Qadeer accused Alam Pasha of deliberately spreading misinformation for over six months to create divisions and incite hatred.
\u201cThese are not just lies; they are crimes against society. To claim that we poisoned children or forced them into rituals is disgraceful. Such allegations are made with malicious intent to divide communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Urging his detractor to \u201crepent and stop misleading the public,\u201d he added that defamatory statements not only harmed the institution but also jeopardized the trust of families who depend on Shaheen for their children\u2019s education.<\/p>\n

Legal Action to Protect Reputation<\/h3>\n

A legal notice has been served to Pasha through a Bengaluru-based advocate, demanding a public apology within three days. Failure to comply, Dr. Qadeer warned, will result in escalation to criminal charges, including filing of an FIR.
\u201cWe will not tolerate slander any longer. Our reputation has been built through decades of service, and we will defend it vigorously,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n

Transparency in Charity Funds<\/h3>\n

Dr. Qadeer also addressed allegations of misusing donations meant for widows and underprivileged girls. He explained that charity funds are managed through a structured system of 6,000 collection boxes, with 3,000 already in use across 137 mosques. These are monitored by trustees, and transactions are recorded through a digital application.
\u201cBetween \u20b91.5 lakh and \u20b93 lakh is distributed monthly to those in need. Contributors have every right to question us, and we encourage accountability. There is no room for personal misuse,\u201d he clarified.<\/p>\n

Supportive Environment for Students<\/h3>\n

Refuting claims of poor treatment of students, Dr. Qadeer highlighted the nurturing atmosphere within Shaheen institutions. He pointed out that parents are invited during admissions to share meals with students and observe the staff\u2019s interaction.
\u201cIf one child says they didn\u2019t like the food, that does not reflect the reality of thousands who thrive here. Parents witness the transparency themselves,\u201d he said, urging families to engage directly with the institution rather than be misled by false narratives.<\/p>\n

Commitment to Education and Social Good<\/h3>\n

Founded in 1989, the Shaheen Group of Institutions has become a beacon of hope for marginalized communities. Dr. Qadeer, a civil engineer by profession, is widely recognized for his philanthropic initiatives in education. He stressed that the mission of Shaheen is to uplift disadvantaged communities, not to pursue personal gain.
\u201cWe are dedicated to building futures through education. Attempts to malign us will only strengthen our resolve,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n
