FAQ on my preferences

I am not aligned with any political party. Ofcourse, I vote at every election, be it local (Corporation) or National (Lok Sabha).
I have designed and developed a "Ward Management System" using the appropriate technology. The primary purpose is to bring local communities together to solve their common issues and foster a community spirit and awareness.
I am currently engrossed in Hydroponic Roof Top vegetable farming. I believe this is the future urban way to Atmanirbhar communities. I used to be a very active Ham Radio operator, having gained an Advanced Grade License. Photography remains an interest. Building websites is another current interest, especially for local governance. I used to participate in Motor Rallies and won the Charminar Challenge, K-1000 and other rallies, but this is no longer my passion. I love travelling by road.
Since 1984, I have helped alcoholics and addicts to recover. Since 2008, I have conducted many workshops on de-addiction. Some photos are available in the De-Addiction Work page on this website.
