All these qualities have helped him in becoming a pioneer in Social Welfare and to make Sophia Group “GLOCAL” by enriching its roots locally and deepening the roots globally. He has also been given key positions in a National Party. This is not everything, with a vision to become global reference in academics, Rev. Dr. Naidu has started Sophia University along with Sophia Agriculture University and Sophia Medical University, and temple of learning to enrich and equip students with knowledge, wisdom, understanding and character which will empower the society we live in, with competent and responsible professionals.
