Bio

With an MBA degree under his belt. He devoted his knowledge in management to implementing processes in ensuring speedy redressal of issues in all spheres of activity. One of the key feathers in Shri Dange’s cap is to have, until recently, served as Private Secretary to Shri Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister of Road Transport, Highways & Shipping.

As PS to the union minister, he has played a pivotal role in ensuring that the Government’s vision and objectives of Infrastructure Development, to build a robust, seamlessly connected nation where progress and prosperity reaches the farthest corners, is translated into action on ground.

The Ministry of Road Transport, Highways & Shipping has been recognised as the best performing Ministry by various media surveys and reports. Notably, Shri Dange was selected as the only Private Secretary from the corporate sector to serve the nation given his deep acumen of working on Policy issues - a paradigm shift from the erstwhile practices of appointing serving officers.

In parallel, as Advisor, Ministry of Road Transport & Highways at NHAI, Shri Dange till recently shouldered multiple dynamic responsibilities, which include monitoring and facilitating Infra Financing, PPP, Stalled & stuck projects, Electronic Toll Collection and other IT initiatives.
