Since my ABVP involvement and three decades of teaching, I am very passionate about the need for a strong intellectual presence of our Dharmic values in the realm of higher education and among intellectuals. I will be happy to participate in any platform or infrastructure that supports the organization of academicians and broader intellectuals on Hindu Dharmic values.
