Vineet wanted to study Commerce but his family wanted him to study in the Science-Math stream and become an engineer. In his high school, he opted for Science -Maths stream and started preparing for engineering entrance exams. He says that he was not much interested in Mathematics hence did not enjoy studying it much. He couldn’t clear his engineering entrance exam and opted for B.Sc. After completing his B.Sc, he started preparing for various government job examinations as his father was an RAS officer and wanted him to be one as well. But Vineet couldn’t clear his government job examinations. Later he enrolled in MA in Economics as there were some opportunities for Economics graduates in the government sector.

He had a good experience there. He got to meet many people from abroad and worked with international organisations. He gained the applied  knowledge of Economics and Statistics.

Vineet says that he stresses upon imparting his students theoretical as well as practical knowledge of the subjects that he teaches. Today many of his students are doing well for themselves.

As a kid, Vineet was more interested in his studies. He wouldn’t engage much in mischievous activities with his friends. Though once in a while, he would go to watch movies with friends and arrive home late and his parents would scold him.

During Covid, Vineet established communication with his students through mobile and computer as physical classes were not possible. He continued his teaching work by conducting online classes and exams. He also acquainted himself with the technological aspects of online teaching.

Vineet considers freedom fighter Subhash Chandra Bose as his role model. He says that Subhas Chandra Bose single handedly revolutionised India’s struggle for independence.
