He was among the Young leaders who worked hard to eradicate the sense of loss and fear that followed the Police action and merging of Hyderabad Karnataka in the Karnataka State. He chose the profession of Legal assistance to help the poor and downtrodden and the muslim minorities who were left out of the mainstream. he worked hard to get the innocent people especially the Muslims to get them released and on the other hand also worked to create a generation of Young Muslim Lawyers and increase legal literacy of the community.

He possessed an endearing personality which made him connect with all kinds of people, and he was respected by people of all faiths and party affiliations. It will be very difficult for anyone to fill this gap. He was a maverick personality who was an esteemed and legendary lawyer, a politician with values, a Milli leader whose heart beat for people. on This sad day, we offer Our Condolences and deepest regards to his family. and we hope that his mission to empower the people will keep on moving.
