About Me
Hi,

Here's something about me:

I am from India.

I am from the state of Punjab.

I am a Software Engineer Research Analyst  Business Development Manager  MBA student Human Resource Professional.

I am a Hindu.

I intend to make useful contributions to articles related to India, technology, politics, psychology, philosophy etc.

I derive most of my spiritual thought from Swami Vivekananda's teachings and the Upanishads

I love my country.

I believe in, and promote, peaceful coexistence, scientific temper, and a spirit of scientific enquiry.

I am staunchly against ALL FORMS of fundamentalism and intolerance.

I am an economic rightist, and believe in free markets and small government. (See my political compass userbox)

I am a staunch proponent of separation of religion and state.

I am interested in Graphology

I am fascinated by the idea of a project like Wikipedia.

I respect all the rules and conventions of Wikipedia.

I intend to earn the trust of fellow Wikipedians through unbiased, reliable contributions.

Just to clarify a point, unlike what the category at the bottom of this page indicates, I don't read Beckett as such. I think the category "Wikipedians who are waiting for Godot" should have been kept.
