After my mother fed him, the sanyasi expressed his wish to rest inside the puja room. My father ushered him into the puja room. Hungry and exhausted, an old sanyasi came to our doorstep. It was a sultry summer noon in the early nineties. One incident that stuck with me the most, which I also shared in the book, is a story of a sanyasi. I did not have to go outside my own home to find inspiration to help others. It is due to his tireless effort that we got the first English medium school in our area. He took on a frontal role in establishing three charitable schools in our village and also worked tirelessly to improve education in and around our village. So, the lesson about doing things for others and sacrificing your own comfort for someone less fortunate than you, I got from my father who, despite being not very well-off, did everything he could in his entire life for the betterment of society. From my childhood I saw my father helping others despite the fact that he was not a rich person. My father, from whom I got my first lesson to serve others unconditionally, was a primary school teacher and has always led a simple and honest life. Can you share some incidents that stuck with you?

I first read about Karimul Hak in a local newspaper and came to know the amazing story of this tea garden worker who carried critically ill patients to the hospital on his motorbike – free of cost.
In this interview, we talk to the author to understand his personal journey with the book and it’s story. The book is a must-read today as it will inspire us to do and be better in our lives.
Written by Biswajit Jha, it documents the extraordinary journey of a tea-garden worker who saved thousands of lives by starting a free bike-ambulance service from his village to the nearest hospital. Bike Ambulance Dada, the authorised biography of Padma Shri awardee Karimul Hak, is the most inspiring and heart-warming biography you will read this year.
