The ‘Hum Bharat Ke Log’ Media Conclave, scheduled for 13 March 2026 at the Indira Gandhi Pratishthan in Gomti Nagar, will this year recognise an internationally active Indian-origin entrepreneur for his outstanding contribution to social service. Dubai-based real estate industrialist and philanthropist Pritesh Patel will be conferred with the prestigious Vidyavachaspati honorary degree by Kashi Hindi Vidyapeeth.
This will be the first time the Vidyavachaspati honorary title is being awarded to an NRI resident of Dubai, marking a significant milestone in the institution’s tradition of recognising global Indian contributions.
An International Platform of Recognition
The conclave is being organised under the banner of Hum Bharat Ke Log and presented by Aaj Ki Khabar News Channel. The event is being directed by noted Bollywood filmmaker Dushyant Pratap Singh. Distinguished guests from India and abroad are expected to attend, with honours being bestowed upon individuals who have demonstrated excellence and social responsibility across diverse fields.
Business Leadership with a Humanitarian Vision
Pritesh Patel is the founder of Akshar Real Estate LLC, through which he has established a strong and credible presence in Dubai’s real estate sector. Beyond his professional success, Patel is widely respected for his deep commitment to social welfare.
For several years, he has actively supported initiatives related to social upliftment, educational assistance, healthcare services, and aid for underprivileged communities. His efforts have not been limited to financial support alone; he has remained personally involved in multiple welfare initiatives, reflecting a sustained spirit of service.
Significance of the Vidyavachaspati Honour
The Vidyavachaspati honorary degree awarded by Kashi Hindi Vidyapeeth is conferred upon individuals who combine professional excellence with meaningful contributions to society. Pritesh Patel is being honoured in recognition of his continuous and dedicated work in the field of social service, alongside his ethical and impactful business leadership.
More than a ceremonial title, the Vidyavachaspati honour represents academic and societal acknowledgment of values-driven success and long-term public impact.
Rooted in Indian Values, Global in Outlook
Despite building his business overseas, Pritesh Patel has consistently upheld Indian values and a strong sense of social responsibility. He believes that true success is complete only when its benefits reach the most disadvantaged sections of society—a philosophy that guides both his business and philanthropic initiatives.
From the UAE to India, his work has earned appreciation across borders. As the auditorium of Indira Gandhi Pratishthan hosts dignitaries from around the world on 13 March 2026, the honour being conferred upon Pritesh Patel will stand as a celebration of global achievement anchored in social responsibility and service to humanity.
