Our own Professor Dr. Syed Abdul Wahab Ashrafi, ex-Chairman, Bihar Universities Services Commission, and a prolific writer from Bihar has been awarded the coveted Sahitya Akademi Award for the year 2007, in recognition of his great contribution to Urdu literature [this is the highest award for literature in India].

The highest honours came to him for his book Tareekh-e-Adab-e-Urdu (Criticism), a masterpiece work of literature recognized the world over.
