Like thousands of Indian International students, Wajib Ali came to Australia to pursue his dreams in 2005.
Over thirteen years, Ali completed his Master of Information Technology from Queensland University and today runs a successful business in Melbourne.
Having lived a good Australian life, Wajib, a proud migrant living in Melbourne, felt like giving back to his country.

He says his visits back to India disturbed him.
“When I used to go back India to meet parents and rest of the family, I use to feel that something should be done to improve living standards in my village.”
“That’s when I decided to be the change agent”, Wajib told SBS Hindi.
Wajib Ali is a candidate of the Bahujan Samaj Party from ‘Nagar’ constituency in Rajasthan state assembly elections.

It is not for the first time he is trying his luck in electoral politics. He also contested as an Independent candidate in 2013.
Wajib says, “Enough of caste, religion and reason politics we have seen, this time I have brought education and employment as an issue for the voters to decide.”
