Before becoming president, he had served as vice president of the student body since 2023 and had been associated with the Student Senate’s public relations department since 2022.
At the time of his election as senate president, Bukhari was in the final year of his General Medicine programme.

His academic journey has gradually expanded from clinical medicine toward public health and healthcare policy. Through his public health studies, he has developed an interest in areas including healthcare administration, leadership, health law, and policy. At the same time, he has remained active in student leadership, youth organisations, and other public and professional activities.

Bukhari remains early in his professional career. His public profile so far reflects a combination of medical education, public health studies, student leadership, youth organisations, entrepreneurship, and involvement in public affairs.
The coming years will determine whether he focuses primarily on medicine and public health or develops a larger role in politics, business, and other areas of public life. For now, his career combines medical training, public health interests, student representation, youth engagement, and entrepreneurial activity.
