There is nothing in the world about which he has nothing to say and nothing in the world that can prevent him from delivering one. The same applies to his paintings-his work. He feels an ocean roaring inside, an endless sky craving to take birth, abundant land rich in greenery and the whole-some nature dying to come out and share his existence. His paintings are the material existence of his abruptly growing subconscious which stimulates him to feel present and past reminiscences. Landscapes are the visualization of the innermost color intensity, forcing him to infuse himself on canvas.

Whatever be the medium in which he chooses to express himself, a brush or a pen, he has only one objective in view: to convey directness and immediacy of experience. Bent on seeking his own path, the artist ties to capture the concept of 'Space' on the canvas in an attempt to give its meaning.

Rajoo is in the real sense "New India" or rather Post-Independent India which is found to raise doubts, ask questions, give opinions, judge objectively however painful it may be. Rajoo is actively associated with different social institutes and organizations. His socio-political conceptions are concrete and committed to socialistic approach with creative orientation.
