My educational qualifications include Bsc. Engg (Mechanical) from CET, Bhubaneswar, MBA (Finance) from IGNOU,  PGDITM (Post Graduate Diploma in Trade Management) from NMIMS, Mumbai and MICS (Member of Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers),  London.

Presently posted as DGM (Materials) in National Aluminium Company Limited, a reputed public sector undertaking in India responsible for procurement of critical raw materials.  I have experience of more than 20 years in marketing, port operations and materials functions of the company in various capacities.

I did the CPPP course as suggested and advised by Chief Vigilance officer of our company and found it to be quite interesting and educative.

Since I hold a position responsible for procurement of materials in a reputed public sector enterprise, I am committed to implement the principle and policies of public procurement in letter and spirit. I believe that professional approach in public procurement through right knowledge and practice will result in effective system of procurement in any organisation.

CPPP through open learning mode is an excellent program for getting knowledge on vital elements and importance of public procurement to improve compliance and governance in public organisations. The mode of learning is quite user friendly and well designed.
