“When I was studying at the Kashmir University, it was difficult for me to fulfil all my basic needs.

When I got admission for my PHD degree my mother sold her land, through which I purchased a laptop, books, and paid my admission fee,” Bhat Said.
“I have worked as a contractor lecturer in many colleges, which include Government Degree College Udhampur, Government Degree College Sopore, Government Degree College Bemina, and Amar Singh College Srinagar,” Bhat said.
He said a person who is ambitious needs to focus on his goals, “If any person has completed his master’s degree in any subject, he or she needs to focus on that particularly subject,”
