Bharali lost his elder brother to liver sclerosis in 1995 and the complete responsibility of the family was put on his shoulders. He was completely devastated at how poverty treated his loved ones and he pledged to earn a lot not only to sustain his family but also those below the poverty line.

With this dream in mind, he constantly worked on building products to serve rural and commercial purpose but this did not pay off his debt. In 2005 Bharali’s talent was acknowledged by the National Innovation Foundation and they took him abroad. In 2006, he designed the first machine in the world to de-seed pomegranates, and there has been looking back since then.

"America had been struggling with this concept for over 30 years. I am glad to have succeeded in achieving this feat," says the recipient of the President's National Grassroots Innovation Award 2009, which turned his life and fortunes overnight.

This serial innovator has 98 inventions to his credit and was also recently shortlisted for his ‘desktop pomegranate de-seeder’ by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) for its prestigious technology award. His mini CTC Tea plant to help small scale tea pluckers and farmers has also been nominated by The World Technology Network for the World Technology Awards 2012.
