The sad demise of Sir Syed on 27th March 1898 was covered by national and international media of the time.

Here I am reproducing the coverage on the March issue of M.A.O. College Magazine which was in press for publication so they just added a notification and a brief news. Later on articles were published on his life and major achievements in College Magazine"

Here I am reproducing the coverage in the Times of London which was reproduced in the M.A.O. College Magazine May issue of 1898"

Many condolence messages were received from India and abroad which was reproduced in the M.A.O. College Magazine April/May issue of 1898. I am reproducing a condolence message sent to Syed Mahmud from Pandit Madan Mohan Malviyaji, who later founded Banaras Hindu University (BHU) along with Ms. Annie Besant and Maharaja of Darbhanga in 1916"
