Explanation:
Srinagar, July 28: His life has been a struggle since childhood when the lone breadwinner of this poor family in far flung Chewa hamlet in Budgam district passed away, but Muhammad Yaqoob Wani did manage to glide through and achieve what others fail in lavish conditions and this he did extraordinarily by topping the merit list of those selected for MBBS this year.
Residing and reading in mud house at Chewa, some 15 kms from district headquarters in Budgam, Yaqoob couldn’t believe his ears when a friend informed him on Monday that he has passed the examination with flying colours.
It was only after he saw Tuesday edition of Greater Kashmir in his hamlet that the entire Wani family got elated.
Yaqoob’s mother a daily wager earns by labouring on shawls which she does meticulously so that her three sons could get best of the education.
She had to sustain the livelihood of the family after her husband Muhammad Abdullah Wani, a shopkeeper, passed away when Yaqoob was a student of first grade.
Yaqoob hardly remembers his father but has vivid memory of their shop in Chewa which they had to sell after it became unmanageable due to incurring debts.
“It was total surprise for me since I had an inkling that the merit in the list will be over 200 but 186 was divine gift for me,” observes Yaqoob.
He secured the highest rank in MBBS by securing 186 marks in Common Entrance Test conducted by Board for Professional Entrance Examination for the year 2009.
Yaqoob, who has achieved the feat, has deposited a family monthly income certificate of Rs 500 with the Sakhawat Centre, which provides a scholarship to him and extends monetary support to his family.
Yaqoob is elder to his two brothers, who are studying in a school in Budgam.
“I studied upto 6th class at Government School, Chewa. After that my paternal uncle helped me schooling in a private school, Evergreen School Arath, where I studied two more classes 7th and 8th. Later I shifted to Shaheen Islamia School for class 9th and 10th,” he reveals.
Coming from impoverished family and in a situation where it’s difficult to have a meal in a day, Yaqoob secured distinction in 10th class by securing 402 marks.
Having preference for medicine, he worked unstintingly for 15 hours to pass his 12th from Government Boys Higher Secondary School, Budgam and got 625 marks.
“It’s my family which pushes me to achieve such feats. My father left us at very young age, he died of brain haemorrhage, when I was just in 1st grade,” said Yaqoob.
He set his goal after 12th and rented a room at Hyderpora where he stayed put for six months and continued to work hard from dusk to dawn.
A shy boy, he has no friend, abhors cellphone and likes reading Holy Quran and Islamic literature.
“I resided as a tenant at Hyderpora during these months. I was not influenced by any style or the way of life other students follow. I kept myself busy with studies every time. As far as timing is concerned, I studied for 14-15 hours regularly. After morning prayers, I used to concentrate on my studies for the rest of the day. Usually, I slept at 11 PM and didn’t study in night,” said Yaqoob with a wry smile.
“Actually, my desire was to be a teacher. I was very much interested in a teaching profession. Moreover, I was confident that I would get through the exams, yet, score matter for me,” he says.
He says that entire hamlet is celebrating his success.
“My hamlet inhabits poor people where literacy rate is very low and poverty is rampant. There people prefer to send their children to work rather than schools,” he adds.
Yaqoob attributes his success to the support of Sakhawat Centre at Bemina, where he visited and thanked the management for their help.
“It was due to support and care of Sakhawat Centre that I continued my studies. They provided every kind of help to me as well as my family during these years. Besides my younger two brothers are also being taken care by them,” he said at the office of Sakhawat centre while receiving a cash reward of Rs 5000 from its administrator, Dr Yosuf-ul-Omer on his success.
Apart from Sakhawat Centre, he was all praise for his teachers who did demand any fees from him.
“I am particularly thankful to Salam sir and Irfan sir of Aristotle School, Altaf sir, Mir Bashir and Farooq Yatoo sir for their encouragement in classes.”
“Though struggle is the path of life, however, we have to carve a niche for ourselves to move forward,” he believes
