He has already created endowments in the universities in India that will be continuously augmented with the intent to make them strong financial pillars that these institutions can take support from in their mission towards achieving and maintaining excellence.   

His singular focus on providing quality education led him to build Manipal as a trusted education brand in international markets too.
