Honoring Legacy Of Rajiv Ruparelia: A Visionary Leader Remembered

Rajiv Ruparelia, the esteemed Managing Director of the renowned Ruparelia Group and the beloved son of Ugandan tycoon, Dr. Sudhir Ruparelia, tragically lost his life in a devastating accident on the Munyonyo-Entebbe Expressway, marking a profound loss at the youthful age of 35.

The confirmation of his passing by emergency responders at the crash site has left a somber tone in its wake.

Born on the 2nd of January in 1990 in the vibrant city of Kampala, Rajiv Ruparelia stood as the cherished youngest child and sole son of the esteemed Dr. Sudhir and Jyotsna Ruparelia.

His unwavering dedication to sustainable development shone brightly in groundbreaking projects like the iconic Kampala Kingdom Mall, a testament to his forward-thinking and innovative business ethos.

While Rajiv’s leadership within the corporate realm was undeniably impactful, his passions extended far beyond boardrooms and balance sheets.

Engaging actively in motorsports, Rajiv not only pursued his love for speed but also became a driving force in promoting the sport within Uganda.

As a devoted trustee of the Ruparelia Foundation, his commitment to fostering community development, education, and environmental conservation resonated deeply with his values and principles.

In the wake of his untimely departure, Rajiv Ruparelia leaves behind his loving wife, Naiya Khagram Ruparelia, and his esteemed parents, Dr. Sudhir and Jyotsna Ruparelia, as the nation and the business community collectively mourn the loss of a dynamic leader.
