Integration of diversified population to the mainstream population is one of my goals, said Councilman Dr. Nabi. I will use my leadership to bring the community together, he added.
It is noted that Dr. Nabi is a renowned scientist, writer and a dedicated community leader. Recently he has retired from Colgate Palmolive Company as an Associate Director of Technology. Currently he is a member of the Board of Directors of Applied Research & Photonics, Inc and President of Invent Enterprise, LLC. Dr. Nabi was born in Khamarpara in Tangail district.
