The Oxford Majlis Asian Society

http://groupspaces.com/oxmajlis/

Profile

The Oxford Majlis Asian Society is the second oldest student society at the University after the Oxford Union. Celebrating its 111th anniversary this year, it is also the oldest South Asian student society in the world.

“Majlis” in ancient Persian, means “Assembly.” We are thus an assembly or gathering of people from all over, be it India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, China or the Middle East. Founded originally to campaign for Indian independence in the UK, Majlis is now non-political and hosts a number of cultural, political and social events throughout the year, and is open to all students of the University, irrespective of their religion or nationality. It also hosts the largest Ball of Hilary Term.
