A graduate of AIIMS,New Delhi with post-graduate qualifications, inter alia, in Human Rights Law from National Law University, Bangalore.

Working as an AIDS control programme manager with the state government for more than 18 years in the Indian state of Gujarat .

Interested in the proactive role of the community at large in assertion of right to health (with a focus on the health management with built in community systems strengthening besides mere health systems strengthening in isolation)and issues pertaining to access to equitable quality healthcare.

My dream:

Establishment of the right to health as a fully promoted,protected and widely asserted human right. Everyone must see their definite role and contribute for his/her health-which is perceived in its totality and not just as equivalent of health-care.

The socio-economic,cultural and environmental determinants of health must form the core of the perspectives and pursuits accordingly.The need to act on Community Systems Strengthening(CSS) and Social Change Communication(SCC) must be realized at all quarters.

I'm proud of:

Meaningful and faciliitatory participation of the infected and affected community in the entire continuum of prevention,care,support and treatment of HIV/AIDS and containment of the second epidemic of stigma and discrimination faced by the PLHIV.
