When he gets time, he travels to some place and conduct awareness camps, rallys to promote the cause. He believes…”It is our minimum responsibility to support our society and not more than that”.

Shareef is a role model for many rural Indian youth to pursue their ambitions for education and involve themselves in social causes using their knowledge and their networks of friends.

Instead of lamenting on the failure of prevailing systems, it is far more commendable to seize all opportunities to work to impact society along with one’s personal choice of career. Social conditions the world over would be better with more youth taking up approaches like that of Shareef.
