Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 26: Mumbai, renowned for its bustling energy, witnessed an electrifying spectacle as the acclaimed businessman, environmentalist, and author Viral Desai, fondly known as the Green Man, unveiled his latest literary work, ‘Architect of Amritpath.’ The grand book launch ceremony took place at the Vivekanand Education Society, where an impressive roster of more than 22 colleges provided the perfect backdrop for this momentous occasion.

Just as Swami Vivekananda College upholds the ideals of Vivekanandaji, my book draws inspiration from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s environmental initiatives.”

The book has resonated deeply with environmentalists and the youth alike, amassing a substantial response for its poignant exploration of India’s ecological pursuits and visionary strides.
Viral Desai’s journey as an industrialist, environmentalist, and now an author mirrors the narrative of a multifaceted individual committed to driving positive change.
