As a Transporter

Haji Anayat Ali rose to prominence on the social as well as the political landscape of Kargil at the age of 29 years when he created a successful Transport Co-operative Society in Kargil, generating employment and economic opportunities for hundreds of poor families in the district.He did this by persuading the various State and Center Govt. agencies operating in the transportation of goods and services in Kargil about the low cost of engaging local commercial vehicles readily available at Kargil, which was in the past always provided by transport companies outside of Kargil
His efforts paid off and owing to the huge area of Kargil district (14,500 sq Kms), this business initiative culminated in the creation of a large private transportation sector in Kargil resulting in the ten fold increase in the numbers of heavy commercial vehicles in the district within a short time span of a decade.
His interactions with the masses from all walks of life during this period of time won him a firm support base at the grassroot level of Kargil society which ultimately resulted in his active involvement into politics. During this time he was also elected as the president of the youth wing of the oldest Islamic socio-religious organisation of Ladakh, The Anjuman e Jamiat ul Ulema Ithna Asharia, Kargil.
