'''Zamindar Khan Shahib Haji Emdad Ali was a self-made man. The First Royal Zamindar of Zinzira Keranigang Dhaka Bangladesh also known as Emdat Bepari or Lord Ali 1'''

'''He became a Zamindar not through lineage. Rather, back in British era, He bought a handsome amount of land to acquire his position as a Zamindar. He also maintained good contact with the British Empire and was awarded with The Royal title "Khan Shahib"'''

'''Some of the estates owned by Zamindar Khan Shahib Haji Emdad Ali included the prominent Gonimiyaar'haat in Zinzira, a portion of the Dhaka's Moulvibazaar, the hatt bazars and more. Most of these properties are looked after by his family members. There were ups and downs as well. At one point, He tried to establish his own business in Assam. However, incurring losses, He had to come back.'''

Zamindar Khan Shahib Haji Emdad Ali's Mansion "Khan Shaheb House" also known as "Boro Basha" locally.

Its a 2 storied Mansion which covers a huge area.

Zamindar Shaheb was afraid of earthquakes, To deal with His this phobia a Large and Lavish Teakwood house was built on the porch and he would reside on its first floor.

'''Back in that time Zamindar Khan Shaheb Haji Emdad Ali also dealt with the leather business and flourished in this arena.Even though Zamindar Khan Shaheb Emdad Ali was a well-off and powerful Royal Zamindar Ruler in and around The Zinzira area, He was a generous man by heart. There was a Musafir Khana within his mansion where he would often distribute seasonal fruits and food to the needy.The people under him were fond of him as whatever land he owned,most of it were given away free of cost.And another interesting fact that makes Zamindar Khan Shaheb Haji Emdad Ali more respected is that, instead of following the ritual of asking people to come to the Musafir Khana, He would send gifts to their houses. It was a kind gesture from his part. Also one third of His earrings from his estates were sent to a charity fund and he ensured this process throughout his life time.Zamindar Khan Shaheb Haji Emdad Ali was fond of helping the needy and the students continuing their studies.'''

If it's asked that what made Zamindar Khan Shaheb Haji Emdad Ali feel so concerned and wish for the well-being of the people under him,then perhaps it would be said,it was because he never forget his own humble beginning.
