I faced stigma and prejudice in every sphere of my life. I became disappointed and thought not to go out. My family told me that it is not the solution. Then I realized I’ve to explore and prove myself. From then on nothing could stop me. I always passionate about Cricket. But didn’t get opportunity to play cricket due to my disability. I took the first step to introduce Disabled Cricket in Bangladesh. Disabled Cricket now been nationalized after my initiative of Bangladesh Cricket Association for Physically Challenged (BCAPC). I have also established Wheelchair Cricket Association Bangladesh to ensure cricket sports for wheelchair cricketer. My vision is for inclusive sports. I will continue my endeavor to establish rights of persons with disabilities. I want to be a role model in establishing inclusive sportsI took the first step to introduce Disabled Cricket in Bangladesh.

PWDs are deprived from participation in many sports. As a result they are excluded from recreational activities. With this in mind, I want to create the opportunity for PWDs to enjoy all sports. I want to make all sports inclusive as I did in Disability Cricket. I believe anything is possible. With proper support and good platform, I can achieve that.
