This venture not only satisfied the culinary cravings of locals but also provided Raj with an invaluable platform to observe and understand the concerns and aspirations of the people he served. His restaurant became a hub where diverse segments of the community converged, offering Raj unique insights into the challenges and hopes of the community.In 2010, Raj made a significant shift in his life, transitioning from a successful restaurateur to an elected councillor for the Mole Valley District Council.
