A resident of Juhu for the last 40 years, my tryst with public
service began, post the 26July, 2005 floods. It was on this day that I decided
to become a part of the solution instead of merely adding to the problem.
In my experience, the approach to good
governance remains very organic and begins from the neighborhood level.
For me, Social Responsibility is
synonymous with holistic progress and prosperity. With that in mind I have been
at the forefront of organizing and executing the following initiatives:
