" Psychosocial Issues among Breast Cancer Patients in Asian Developing Countries" is my article but another Sajid Iqbal has added it to his profile on research gate, how can we let him know his false attribution please.
ResearchGate automatically searches names of members and provides a list, it is likely he accepted all without going through it. Only he can remove it from his list, i suggest you contact him to clarify the issue. if you contact ResearchGate they might ask him to confirm he is the author of that specific article. ORICD is the best at keeping your articles as yours.
I agree with the response from Rabeah Al-Temaimi
If you can't contact the RG member (sometimes members do not look at their incoming RG messages every day), look for your namesake's academic or work location online and make contact through the university or work email, if it is explicit.

Does it really matters on whose profile is the paper?
Science is about knowledge not about the men or women who create the knowledge.
Biology shows that we, authors will sooner or later dissapear. What we created will remain.
That is the important point.
