THREE WHEELED REVOLUTION

A THREE WHEELED REVOLUTION
Irfan Alam founded the Sammaan Foundation. It was to modernize the rickshaw pulling sector in Bihar. The lesson titled “A Three Wheeled Revolution” is an interview with Irfan Alam. Irfan Alam started life from very humble background. This lesson tells us how he could become a successful entrepreneur. He shares the story behind his entrepreneurship. Alam was once travelling in a rickshaw. When he felt thirsty he wanted to get water from the rickshaw puller. But he could not provide water since he couldn’t afford it in his rickshaw. Soon Irfan
thought of a business idea. He started an agency named ‘SammaaN Foundation’. This agency plays an important role to organize the rickshaw pullers. With this agency, he could increase the living conditions of the rickshaw pullers. He used rickshaws as a source of income from advertising, music and newspapers for passengers, first aid and the selling of cold water and
juice.
