Bhatkal, August 19: Anjuman Boys High School, managed by Anjuman Hami-e-Muslimeen, organised Tribute Talks 2025, a digital contest held in memory of the late Mohtisham Mohammed Yaseen, a respected tutor, mentor and role model for students of the institution.
According to a press statement, eighteen students took part in the event, which was described as a heartfelt effort to honour the legacy and guidance of the late educator. The sudden demise of Yaseen continues to be felt within the school community, leaving a void among staff and students.
As part of the tribute, the “Mohtisham Mohammed Yaseen Memorial Award” was conferred on Mohammed Jasim, son of Umar Javeed Tonse, in the senior category, and Muhammed Tahu, son of Abdul Majid Shabandri, in the junior category for classes six and seven.
The statement added that recognition was also given to students whose digital presentations received the highest online engagement, with Zainulabideen Unais, son of Mohiddin Anas Siddiahmeda, and Ahmed Arham, son of Abdul Basit Ruknuddin, being honoured.
The school management stated that the award was not only a recognition of student talent but also a promise to uphold the values and inspiration left behind by Mohtisham Mohammed Yaseen.

New Delhi (PTI): Amid the ongoing West Asia conflict, India has supplied 22,000 metric tonnes of high-speed diesel to Bangladesh in March and has received a request from Seychelles and the Maldives to meet their energy requirements, the MEA said on Friday.
At his weekly briefing, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal in his response to a query related to requests received from India's neighbouring countries for fuel amid the West Asia situation, also said that India is "finalising a government-to-government agreement" for the supply of oil and gas, which will play an important role in reinforcing energy security of Mauritius.
The conflict in West Asia has now stretched to nearly 50 days, with global ramifications.
"So, we have received requests from our neighbouring countries for supply of fuel, and these are being looked into, keeping in mind our own requirements, availability and refining capacity," Jaiswal told reporters.
He further said India has "supplied 22,000 metric tonnes of high-speed diesel to Bangladesh in March 2026, and further supplies have continued this month as well".
"You would recall that last month we had supplied 38 metric tonnes of petroleum products to Sri Lanka as well," he added.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar visited Mauritius last week, the MEA spokesperson said, adding, "We are finalising a government-to-government agreement for supply of oil and gas, which will play an important role in reinforcing the energy security of Mauritius".
As far as Nepal is concerned, there is an existing arrangement between Indian Oil Corporation and Nepal Oil Corporation to supply petroleum products to Nepal as per its requirements. The supplies are continuing without any interruption, he said.
Energy supplies to Bhutan also continue according to the existing arrangement.
"As I had mentioned earlier, we have received a request from Seychelles and the Maldives to meet their energy requirements. We continue to be in touch with them in this regard, and are considering the request keeping in mind our own domestic requirements and availability of fuel.
"I would also like to add that our neighbouring country governments have expressed appreciation for the uninterrupted supply, fuel supply to them during the West Asian conflict," Jaiswal said.
Global oil and gas prices surged after Iran restricted the transit of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow lane between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman that handles roughly 20 per cent of global oil and LNG trade.
