This lad continues to take Hyderabad to dizzy heights

Hyderabad, July 20:-

Young and scholarly, Raja Karthikeya, has gone places literally, just at the age of 28. Euphemistically, the ‘young diplomat’ from a modest family in Hyderabad, has gone global, thanks to his perseverance, dexterity, jest for study and research on diplomatic strategies.

Son of a veteran journalist, Mr G Valliswar, M Karthikeya has made Hyderabad proud as he is the first young Indian to be chosen among the top ten scholars from across the world for the United States Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) recently.

Right according to his calibre, he has been assigned the CSIS’ responsible projects and studies that pertain to global efforts against nuclear weapons escalation, disarmament and nuke explosions.

And to recount his versatility, Karthikeya is, out and out an ace polyglot. He is proficient in Japanese, German, French, Italian and Persian among other major languages of the world.

To top it all, Karthikeya has also bagged the covetous United Nations Rosanthal Fellowship for 2008 and several other national and global laurels that tag on to his illustrious career.

An M.S in Foreign Sciences from Georgetown University in the US and an MBA from the IIFT, New Delhi, Karthikeya has also been credited with drafting the United Nations’ official analysis of the Security Council debates on Iran’s nuke programmes among other surveys on the issue.

Presently, befitting his scholastic abilities, Karthikeya is engaged in a study on Iran’s nuclear programmes and how its people, and their rivals as well, perceive the nation’s nuke policies.

Even recently, he has met renowned diplomat and member of National Security Advisory Board T.P Sreenivasan and had wide-ranging discussions on India’s strategic and nuclear issues besides its efforts for a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.
