Rampur’s iconic Raza Library turns 250, and the town just cannot keep quiet
Sunday, 24 December 2023 Rampur is celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Raza Library, a globally acclaimed institution. The library, housed in the Hamid Manzil, is known for its collection of 17,000 rare manuscripts in various languages, 83,000 books, 5,000 miniature paintings, and 3,000 specimens of Islamic calligraphy. The year-long celebration plan includes lectures, seminars, scholars' meetings, book festivals, and courses on manuscriptology, calligraphy, and languages. Sanam Ali Khan, a great-granddaughter of Hamid Ali Khan, the ninth Nawab of Rampur, feels privileged to continue her family's work at the library.
A court in Rampur in Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday declared former MP and actor Jaya Prada an "absconder" in connection with two cases of election code violations and directed the police to arrest her and produce her before it on March 6. According to senior prosecution officer Amarnath Tiwari, two cases were registered against the former MP from Rampur at Kemari and Swar police stations for allegedly violating the Model Code of Conduct during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. The actor was the BJP candidate from Rampur in the 2019 polls and was defeated by Azam Khan of the Samajwadi Party. She was elected to the Lok Sabha from Rampur in 2004 and 2009 on a Samajwadi Party ticket.
