My Pledge: To serve the community whole-heartedly and to work for betterment and prosperity of people. Devotion, dedication and development are my motives. Justice and non-violence are my principles.

I live in the Western suburbs and am contesting the Altona by-election as an independent candidate. By profession, I am an engineer and pilot. I also worked as a 7-Eleven franchisee for last three years.

I have always played an active role in serving the community. I love talking to people, getting to know their needs and working on those issues. It is a fact that families need access to good schools, health and transport services and to feel safe in their local community.

They also need a vibrant local economy that is environmentally sustainable. I believe if all the people of the community come together and join hands then the sky will be the limit for growth and happiness.

My main concerns are:

- Providing west with quality Public Transport services

- Improvements to existing local bus routes and new bus routes in developing suburbs

- More frequent and express train services on priority routes

- Earlier completion of Williams landing train station project to reduce congestion at neighbouring train stations

- Improving Hospitals, Healthcare and aged care in west

- Creating safer environment in west

- Aiming to control rising food prices in west

- I shall work hard to implement government sponsored employment generation schemes and encourage people to seek employment opportunities in Australia. Environment, forestry and water conservation shall be my priority.
