Sunil Fotedar - Proven record of Commitment, Capabilities and Results
 
Namaskaar!!
 
We, who believe in Sunil Fotedar’s capabilities, passion, commitment, energy and enormous concern for our community, strongly believe that a leader is someone who knows how to lead from the front as well as be a great team player. In our opinion, Sunil possesses both those qualities. He has a proven record of successfully leading our movement to keep our cultural heritage alive. He also has a proven record of being an exceptional team player. It is not just our opinion but the opinion of all those folks who have worked with him on various community projects over past 16 years.
 
Here, in the first part, we would like to present a sample of what some of the community members have to say about Sunil:

Sh. Inder Kaul of Leominster, Massachusetts says:
 
Sunil Fotedar's energy and drive, his deep belief in strengthening our community, his commitment and substantial contributions over the past decade to our brethren at large including the KOA, and most importantly the passion with which he goes about conducting such business continues to amaze me. I hope this is a mere reminder to those of you that have gotten to know Sunil over time rather than being misconstrued as me paying accolades to him. Facts never cease to exist, they are simply denied.
 
Why do I believe Sunil would be a great President?
 
Apart from the standard response “my gut says so”, I have many reasons, reasons that I hope will be persuasive if not compelling. Here is a brief and concise elucidation of these reasons:
 
Leadership skills: Sunil listens well, is a consensus builder, strongly believes in a participatory environment, fosters and demands team work, and holds himself to high ethical and moral standards. Also, while he makes the decisions that he needs to, he does refrain from making decisions that are simply cheap appeasements. Sunil has struck me as a fair, honest, logical, intelligent person who promotes transparency.
 
Enthusiasm: Anyone who comes out non-perished or even un-wounded after devoting almost fifteen years of ones life to our community has to be "enthusiastic."
 
Willingness to learn and that too with a very open mind: KOA has evolved as have challenges that it must meet. These challenges have to be met successfully and in a way that is conducive and rewarding. This will require a mind that is alert, a person who values patience and tolerance and above all a person who is all inclusive. I for one have observed Sunil applying the things that he learnt from many Kashmiri Pandit leaders, community members and may I dare say his well wishers. He treasures the insight and guidance that he continues to receive.
 
I am confident that he will make KOA a vibrant organization, an organization that our community will take pride in. He will uphold the KOA to its highest standard and he will deliver given a chance.
