According to reports, Irrfan lived with his family till 2010, but after his father’s death, his life took a sudden turn. He unsuccessfully tried to contest from his constituency. The multiple setbacks forced Irrfan to leave his home, which turned out to be one of the worst episodes of his life. Despite these setbacks, he never gave up and moved forward with relentless dedication.
After finding a deserted place, he got the idea to build an underground palace. After succeeding in that, he fought his way to dry land. Irfan’s continuous commitment and drive made farming possible. Now he is making a living by farming here. A well was also built here but some destroyed it.
