  • I joined the 1971 batch at College of Agriculture, Solan and completed M.Sc. in Horticulture in 1977. After that I started my career but soon shifted towards my passion of Astrology. Looking back, I can proudly say that COA played that decisive role in shaping my destiny. I owe all the success to the humble beginning which I had made at the COA, Solan.
