Education
Alumnus of St. Columba’s School, New Delhi, DAV School, Hans Raj College (Delhi University) and CCS University. The basic interest in science, technology and medicine saw me taking up science in school and college. Later, however, due to my love for social service, shifted and graduated with Economics / Sociology and topped it up with a Master’s Degree in Sociology. This was followed by a Post Grad Diploma in Computer Science (Certificates from Lotus Development Corp., UK & Microsoft Corporation, USA) and another in Business Management (Personnel and HR).

A Professional
S
tarted employment in 1990 at Datapro Information Technology, a computer training company, picking up skills of management and teaching. In a few years, became an entrepreneur and started my own companies – Anupam Associates and Cosmic Communications with specializing in Database Management, Computer Publishing, Communications and Reprographics. These enterprises help me to cover my expenses of bread and butter ! Its been nearly 21 years in the field of computers. I do shake hands with estate investments occasionally !

Personality Traits
A born free thinker, intellectual, honest, compassionate, ethical & a courageous Indian are the syllables that best describe me.

A Collector
Limca Book of Records 2011 - National Record 2011 for collection of sharp and pointed objects.
I collect different kinds of knives, bayonets, arrows, darts, scissors, nail cutters, axes, swords, spears, bullets, paper cutters, razors, cork openers, daggers, multi-tools and even a wrist band with spikes.  In short, anything that has a sharp edge or has a pointed tip, catches my fancy and I am determined to own it instantly.

A Sportsman
I am a National Level Shooter and represent Delhi State in shooting. I am a 'Renowned Shot' (as per Govt. of India's notification No. 147/94-Cus) having qualified at the 54th National Shooting Competition Championship held at Dr Karni Singh Shooting Ranges, New Delhi, during January 2011. Earlier, I obtained All India 5th Rank at All India GV Mavalankar Shooting Championships held at Guwahati in November 2010.

A Hobbyist
Things that cut, shoot or fly have always been of delight. Very fond of making robotic gadgets and stuff that runs on non-conventional energy sources. Photography, fishing, adventure sports and instrumental music are the other things that hold my interest. Guns are objects of passion and fascination

An Activist
A keen observer and willing participant to stand against corruption and immoral & unethical activities and practices. RTI has become an important tool and weapon to aid in this arena. As Hony. General Secretary of ISHWAR-NGO, I work to educate street children and contribute my bit in ‘giving back’ to the society – particularly the under-privileged, differently-abled and the less fortunate sections.
