He is also the first Asian to win the"Proof of Concept" award in the UK. His exhaustive, sector based research on various economies have added value to the current researches in areas of outsourcing, corporate governance and celebrity advertising.
Born to a research scientist, the early years of Raj's career were "genetically" oriented to seek logic in what seemed a natural progression to studying the consulting industry in its entirety. The consulting industry often dominated by gray-haired intellectuals with receding hairlines sees Raj as a welcome change.
Raj has worked with some of the best management "thought leaders" in the UK. His close association with Prof. John Turner honed his skills in reforming strategies. Nick Beech, winner of the National Teaching Award guided him to be a professional mentor.

He single handedly raised a sum of 3000 pounds on behalf of Red Cross for the devastating tsunami that wrecked havoc in 2004. Raj was also actively involved in Kirkstall Village Community an NGO established for the welfare of the community. Raj hopes to raise enough money one day to set up a state of the art cancer hospital for the poor in memory of his mother. His social awareness instigated his thought process, which resulted in a business model that made him the first Asian to win the "Proof of Concept" award in Britain.

My achievement
Personally, I’ve not achieved anything great to be proud of. I strongly feel I would be proud the day I would be able to do my country proud.
My thoughts on our education system
Needs to re-structure the entire education system. A major time is wasted to make students unlearn or de-learn what they have learnt in College. The syllabus should be more practical and future-oriented or relevant to the professions where students wants to be associated with in future.
