Students in Sherghati, a town 50 km from Gaya, have chosen a graveyard to study, believing that the spirits there will help them score good marks in their examinations.

Students say the peaceful environment of the graveyard motivates them to visit often besides improving their concentration levels. Noor Khan, a student of Class XI, feels that studying near the graveyard of saint Kamar Ali Sultan has helped improve his memory and retention power.

“When there are holidays in school and college, we use to come and study here. There is divine spirit in the graveyard that helps us in studying and scoring marks in our exams,” says Khan.

Another student, Munawar Hasan, says his forefathers used to visit this place to study, and he is just following in their footsteps. “We learn things well and quickly when we sit in the graveyard rather than sitting at any other place,” Hasan says.
