MP
I’m working with “ Muslims for Britain” to take a group of MP’s and Lords on the so-called “Project Maja”. Led by Lord Dan Hannan (former MEP colleague), this project has a twofold objective of (i) planting trees in Northern Pakistan as well as (ii) helping meet the educational needs of underprivileged children in some of the most remote but stunning and picturesque areas of Chitral and Swat in the western Himalayas.
· In conjunction with the British Muslim Heritage Centre, I’m working towards bringing the wonderful exhibit collections they’ve collected to commemorate the sacrifices of Muslim soldiers from the South-Asia sub-continent, including Pakistan, India Bangladesh and Nepal in the two world wars. In addition to this exhibition, we will hold at the inauguration a military parade, organised by The British legion, wreath-laying ceremony, speeches and read The Fatiha (prayers) for the dead. We intend to hold the inaugural event in Leeds/ Bradford but thereafter take the exhibition and hold the commemoration in a different city across the UK annually.
In the future I’d like to concentrate my efforts in:
* Education including vocational training
* Other Environmental projects
* Community relations
* Business development, in particular, Small & Medium Enterprises
MEP
I served on the board of the Bradford Chamber of Commerce until 2014 when I was elected an MEP.
I established and acted as the honorary secretary of TAARO (Trade Association of Asian Restaurant Owners). This provided representations, support and training for Asian restaurateurs.
Since becoming an MEP, I have volunteered for a number of social action projects around Europe, including working in a hostel for underage migrants in Sicily and renovating a centre for victims of the euro crisis in Athens.
We can build a better future together
