“Pawan was my batch mate at DA-IICT where we took quite a few courses together and were also members of the same project teams. He is a very dedicated person who can “get things done”. Working with him is a pleasure because he grasps concepts quickly and is able to think out-of-the-box. Flexibility is another pillar of his strength and he can produce results under severely tight conditions. I must also mention that hidden under this serious and dedicated person is a guy who possesses a great sense of humor. He knows how to reduce stress levels in the team. In the end I can say that he is very reliable and trustworthy. Once entrusted with a job, one can be rest assured that it will be done. I recommend him to you with no second thoughts in my mind.”
