Biography
Born on 29th November of 1980 in a remote village named Chakla of district Bongaigaon (erstwhile Goalpara), Assam, India and brought up there. Is the eldest son and first child of Md Farhad Ali and Rahela Begum. Attended school education in the same village. A person whose dream could not be smashed because the parents believed and choose a pen and paper over a full-plate dinner. Today, with the grace of almighty, and hard work, I stand among the elite crowd of doctors working at the premiere medical and health institute of India.
My early life was full of adventure, spent amidst the beauty of nature in my remote village without even having a proper road connection to the rest of the world. Sometimes, even I had to walk 20-25Km to the nearest railway station or 2-5 Km, swim across the river to get a bus to the towns and other parts. I have done my primary schooling at Chakla Lower Primary School in my village. I also completed my high schooling (Class x in 1996) in the same village at Chakla Higher Secondary School followed by my secondary education (class XII in 1998) at Nabajyoti College, Kalgachia, spending nearly two hours daily on foot to reach there. After passing high school education, I started supporting my parents economically through working in fields to grow vegetables, taking tuition, and other daily works to earn pennies. Although I qualified for medical courses thrice, I could attend the medical school only on the third time in the year 2002 due to financial constraints and others
