BOGURA, May 12, 2025 (BSS) – Rahat Khan, who have two foreign degrees, one in Law, the other in Business Management, have changed his life story through fish and cattle farming. 

After completing Master’s degrees from North Umbria University, Newcastle, UK, Rahat returned to Bangladesh and started fish cultivation in 2014.

Talking to BSS, Rahat, a resident of Dhawakola village in Bogura Sadar Upazila, said his family expected that he would become a barrister and join the legal profession.

“But, I didn’t follow their suggestion. I have engaged myself in fish and cattle farming. I wanted to become self-reliant and to do something for the country’s people,” he added.

While studying abroad, Rahat saw that people do their own job without looking down on any work. With that inspiration, he wanted to do something in his village instead of chasing a traditional job.

Rahat said he cultivated fish in large-scale using domestic feed and he became successful in his initial stage.

Taking inspiration from the fish farming, he said he started cattle farming. 
Now Rahat is the owner of RK Agro Farm Limited, situated on about 40 bigha of lands in Chandihara, Bogura. 

Rahat completed 'O' Level from Saint Paul's School, Darjeeling, India and 'A' Level from Scholastica School, Dhaka. 

He completed graduation in Law from British School of Law.
