Social and political work

Ranger is the chairman of the British Sikh Association. This was set up to stop the extremist Sikh organisations from representing the Sikh point of view in Britain. He has vigorously argued with these extremist organisations that the Sikhs were created to defend the unity, integrity and the basic human rights of every Indian and not to break her up. When Sikh Gurus never claimed a separate kingdom for themselves, then why should their followers demand a kingdom for themselves?

Ranger, through Sun Mark, has donated more than £1 million to the Conservative Party, and £25,000 to Theresa May's party leadership campaign.[12]

Ranger was appointed the joint chairman of the Conservative Friends of India in 2018, with Zac Goldsmith MP, a group affiliated to the Conservative Party which aims to build stronger links between the Party, the British Indian community and India.[13]

Community work

Ranger joined the Princes Trust Enterprise Fellowship in 2012. The Fellowship is a collective of the UK's leading entrepreneurs which works to enable The Prince's Trust to reach young people and to pass on their experience and expertise to inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs.[14]
