An alumnus of the National Defence Academy, Pune and the Indian Military Academy, Dehradun, he was commissioned into the First Battalion of the Jammu and Kashmir Rifles (JAK RIF) Regiment in 1989. He has served in multiple geographies across the country, engaged in active counter-insurgency operations in Jammu & Kashmir, and was posted in Africa under the UN Peacekeeping Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where he oversaw operations, security and civil-military cooperation.

He is an accomplished professional with proven experience in successfully leading and managing large entities with multiple cross-functional teams to achieve and exceed challenging objectives. He commanded his infantry battalion where, in his role as the CEO, he strengthened the culture of camaraderie, excellence and achievements.
