The Greater Hurdler
Come to think of it, Abdulgani (Ganibhai) Shaikh could have made a living...
He has also worked with the Indian Muslims Association (Southern California) as a Vice President, and in other leadership roles. He is one of the founding members of the Southern California Federation of Indian Associations, the first FIA in Los Angeles. He has also been involved with the American Federation of Muslims from India (AFMI), and with Indian Muslim Relief and Charities (IMRC). He and his wife have three children. Son Munir is married to Shabnam and they have three children. Daughter Shahida is married to Mobin and the couple has two children. The youngest child, Mehjabeen is married to Altaf.
Ganibhai is quite impressed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call for Swachh Bharat, a cleanliness drive to free India of immense roadside filth and garbage. There are other moves made by the Prime Minister in which he sees plenty of hope for his native country. It won’t be easy to transform India overnight, though. But he knows from personal experience that greater the obstacle, more the glory in overcoming it. The least we can say is that Ganibhai has led his life in a manner that is exemplary, one that is certainly worthy of emulation by generations to come.
