Have a special attachment to Amroha
John Elia was a famous poet who was born in Amroha on December 14, 1931, but when the situation in the country changed, he had to go to Pakistan at the time of partition. While living there, he wrote romantic love poems. He loved Amroha so much that while the musalla was being performed, John asked the attention of another poet who was sitting on the stage and said, “Hey, I am from Amroha, listen carefully, if I am there, then thank you Hyuk will be there too.”

Amroha’s culture is John’s gift
Professor Nasir Naqvi, a resident of Amroha who appears to be John Elia’s nephew, told TV 9 Bharatvarsha in an interview that although John Elia is his uncle, from a poetry point of view , he is his father because of his bloodline itself. I learned a lot from John Elia, I learned my language from him, I learned my etiquette from him, and everything we have today, especially the culture of Amroha. It flourished under the patronage of John Elia Saheb.
