AL Haj K S Mohammed Masood and AL Haj K S Nisar Ahmed Karkala, who are my elder brothers, have been involved in social and community service for several years. Haji Mohammed Masood has also reached great heights in the political field. My other elder brother Haji Nisar Ahmed, who is a businessman, also has always worked for the welfare of the people. My father Haji Karkala Shaikh Shabu Sahib has been an inspiration for such work. My father, who was a revenue inspector under the British government, was a disciplined worker and also a philanthropist. My brothers have developed this quality of my father and are inspiring us too.

– AL Haj K S Imthiyaz Ahmed Karkala
