The Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO) is the students' wing of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind. It was formed in 1982. According to its constitution, its aims are presenting Da’wah before students and youth and promoting virtues and moral values in educational institutions.
Mission Statement of SIO "to prepare the students and youths for the reconstruction of the society in the light of Divine Guidance".
SIO has been described as a moderate Muslim students union, and is said to take part in social service and relief activities. It is reported to organise activities for the Muslim youths in order to engage them in peaceful religious activities, and to avoid communal activity and sentiment. It was mentioned as one of the best examples of youth inter-faith dialogue initiatives in a UNESCO global survey report.
