A legacy that lives on through memories
Naheed Umair and Naushaba Khan (BCCL/ Manas Mishra)
Remembering and honouring the legacy of Dr Mirza Umair Beg, senior scientist, on his first death anniversary, a get-together was organised by the family. Dr Beg was also fond of literature; he was a writer who composed prose in Urdu.

Joined by friends and family from different walks of life, the evening became a treasure trove of memories. Former colleagues, relatives and well-wishers came together to pay homage to a man who touched many lives.

Naheed Umair, wife of the late Dr Mirza Umair Beg, thanked all the relatives and guests for their presence. Teary eyed, she described the loss of Dr Beg as the light going out of her life, saying 'He was not just my husband, but my mentor, friend, and companion who inspired me to find purpose in life.' People shared their memories of Dr Beg and expressed how deeply they felt the void left by his passing—a loss that can never be fulfilled.
As the evening drew to a close, a sense of gratitude lingered in the air.
