== Early life ==
Hashmi was born in to the illustrious family of S.M. Quuamruddin in [[Makhdumpur]], near [[Jehanabad]], [[Bihar]], [[Presidencies and provinces of British India|British India]]. Like several families of [[Northern India]], the Hashmis also lost everything in the pre-partition riots, that forced them to move to the northern region of [[Motihari]] in [[East Champaran]], [[Bihar]]. An avid learner, the obstacles and dearth of financial resources did not become a barrier for him to pursue higher education in Law. Despite his passion for public service, Hashmi had to continue his practice in Law while also teaching part-time in order to support the family. Subsequently, driven by the desire to make his contribution to the society, he joined politics with principles in [[Socialism]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://rajyasabha.nic.in/rsnew/pre_member/1952_2003/h.pdf |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2014-09-01 |url-status=live |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305042644/http://rajyasabha.nic.in/rsnew/pre_member/1952_2003/h.pdf |archivedate=2016-03-05 }}</ref> He is survived by his five children and his grandchildren, most of whom divide their time between [[New Delhi]] and at his institute for underprivileged children in northern [[Bihar]].
