A bachelor degree in engineering from IIT Delhi, a Masters degree and a PhD from Houston university,Texas these are his qualifications. However he has left to serve the poor tribals,he is an ex-IIT professor. He is Alok Sagar. He has been living for 32 years in remote tribal villages in Madya Pradesh and serving the people.
When he was teaching in IIT Delhi he had groomed enormous students. Including our ex-RBI governer Raghuram Rajan. Alok Sagar resigned to help the poor. After resigning from his work he Started working for tribals in Betul. He has been living in a village it doesn't have electricity and roads,with just a primary school.
Alok Sagar has planted more than 40000 trees in the region.He believe that people can serve better by working at the grassroots level. He told the Hindustan times "in India people are facing many problems,but people are busy prooving their intelligence by showing their degrees rather than helping the poor."
Sagar doesn't believe in boasting about degree and his career. He infact said that he didn't need his degrees to serve the people,but only will power.
It's very difficult to know his credentials. He helped many people but he didn't reveal his identity. When the local government ordered him to leave this place citing security reasons,he revealed his identity,and then people were surprised by his great qualifications.
He has a very luxurious lifestyle to lead but he left all those choices. He is a great human being to serve others.
