an active advocate for Universal Acceptance within India and more globally
through his participation in the IETF and the IGFs. His working puts him in a
good position to advocate Universal Acceptance in one of the UASG’s target
position. He has done complete justice with his current position of UA
ambassador and unlike other ambassador in our region who have personal charges
and allegations of his several misconducts , charges of lack of knowledge,
injustice or miss use of current position and so on, Harish was always away
from such issues. I hope that if he can be Vice Chair he can do many things
