Mr. Vaibhav Raj Pandey, Moderator.

"Adonis" in disguise, Vaibhav Raj Pandey is a virtuous figure who strives for perfection in all facets. As young as any man of 21 could be, he has already been a part of numerous MUNs and Youth Parliaments, not only in his city, not only in his state, but across the entire nation. While everyone was busy being the pioneer of MUN culture in Varanasi; he was busy in creating a MUN culture and raising its bar to a standard whereby others could be known as the pioneer of this culture. A highly experienced professional, he has been winning laurels since a couple of years and a half . He is a man of great humor but what distinct his grandeur from the rest of the mob is his extreme knowledge on the Indian polity and the dominion he possesses over the art of demagoguery. A fairly calm and composed man, the ability to cut any Gordian knot within a speck of moment is one of his numerous rare abilities.The modest attitude despite such honoured abilities is one of the peculiarities to be wondered upon. Hailing through the city of ghats, his eyes sparkle with the dream of becoming a successful politician someday. Mastering the art of diplomacy, he is driven by his patriotic feelings towards gifting his nation an international recognition, better allied relations, and an impactful dominance globally.

Mr. Pratik Kumar, Director, FCC.

Mr. Pratik Kumar is currently pursuing his bachelors in commerce from Banaras Hindu University. He has a year long experience of various MUNs and Youth Parliaments all around the country. He is a fierce speaker with dexterity to convince the delegates. He is a perfect example of a glossophobiac turning into an orator. He dreams of removing the 'M' from the MUN and being the delegate of India in the United Nations.
Apart from this, he has a passion for acting and anchoring. He has also been a part of various quizes in school and college.
In his own words, "Model United Nations helps you to improve your communication skills, enhance your knowledge and bring out the leader in you. This is a platform where you can evolve your personality."

We welcome you aboard!
