Laying the Path for a Better City, Better State and Better Country

A Mandate to Serve

While I don’t believe in talking too much about who am I, I do believe that my family and educational background, professional experience and achievements make me a worthy candidate in the contest for Chevella MP. It is important that the electorate knows complete details about all their candidates so that they make an informed decision on who to vote for. This document attempts to provide the electorate details about me and my vision for the next five years as a Member of Parliament.

Belief:

That the environment we create around us is physical, intellectual and ideological in nature. Vision, good planning and meticulous implementation must go hand in hand. Innovation, science, engineering and technology with a committed and capable leadership can transform India. Politics must change and the people are ready for that change. The electorate recognizes this shift and will vote for “Progress”.

Vision:

A progressive and developed constituency in which people have better standards of living and a bright future for their children. Vibrant rural hubs that ensure a good quality of life for young and old so that people avoid urban migration and flourish in their home towns. This can only be achieved by education, job creation, farmer upliftment, women safety and empowerment and environmental protection.
