The Legacy of Dr. Idris — A Life of Service and Dedication

Dr. Idris was born on March 17, 1921, into a respected Muslim family in the village of Nasirpur, located in Kachua Upazila of Chandpur District. As the eldest among three brothers and four sisters, he demonstrated academic brilliance and dedication from a young age. In 1945, he earned the Licentiate of Medical Faculty (LMF) from Dhaka Medical School, which was affiliated with Kolkata Medical College at the time.

He began his professional career the same year as a Medical Officer in the Government Health Care Services. Over the years, he served in various subdivisions and thana-level health centers, including Feni, Biddakot, Debidwar, and Matlab. However, driven by a deep sense of commitment to his roots, Dr. Idris made a pivotal decision in 1960 to leave his government position and return to his native region.

In 1961, he established a small-scale medical chamber at Rahimanagar Bazar—an emerging hub near his village and a key center in Kachua Thana. Settling there permanently, he dedicated his life to providing affordable and accessible healthcare services to the local community.

In addition to his private practice, Dr. Idris voluntarily served at a non-governmental charitable dispensary in Ashrafpur Union under Kachua Thana. This facility was later nationalized in 1974, and he continued his service there until 1984. Even afterward, his dedication remained unwavering as he provided weekly medical services at a non-profit private health center in Addrah, under Barura Thana of Cumilla.
