The Higher Education Forum (HEF), a voluntary non-profit group of individuals aiming at bringing reforms in higher education, has awarded Professor Dr Uday Salunkhe, Group Director, Welingkar Institute of Management, as the best teacher under the category of Global Leadership, considering his immense contribution to create a global higher education institution in India.
