Director
Mohammad Abdul Wohab is the director is Southern Health Improvement Samity in West Bengal, India. Mohamad hails from the small village, Padmapukar, Bhangar of West Bengal, India. As he grew up, he experienced with awe that there was not a single day when cries of helpless aguish were not heard. His mind was tormented. His heart tore apart. He saw beloved children nipped in bud, children rendered orphans, and the death of single-earning members devastating families. As years rolled by, the child mused and drifted into a long dream. A crusader started to emerge.
He started the fight against Tuberculosis along with Sabitri Pal, another social worker, and friend. Both Wohab and Sabitri started their campaign and the treatment center for TB from a hut at Bhangar where they were encouraged and aided by Brother Gaston.
Many a time the patients died before reaching hospitals. These incidents upset them. They vowed that no patient of the area would die without treatment and this mental strength is today what SHIS is.
Wohab through his relentless service, determination, and patience has overcome all odds and runs Southern Health Improvement Samity (SHIS) where the organization has spread its activities in multiple directions.
Mr. Wohab had moved through painful and difficult ways to convince people about the goal he dreamed to achieve. This Herculean task would not have been possible, had Wohab not put service to mankind before himself. He has been awarded many prestigious awards for his contribution to mankind.
