Previously, he worked as Senior Research Fellow at a Centre of Advanced Studies in Philosophy, and later as Professor & Head of the Department of Philosophy for a number of years in Higher Education. He is a law graduate, a doctorate in linguistic philosophy. His researches on logic and language led him to study English linguistics and work on the conventional aspects of language communication in English and Hindi. The outcome of his researches, his knowledge of English linguistics and Hindi language provoked him to undertake the task of developing for native English learners the methods of exploiting their knowledge of Hindi for quick and correct learning of English. He published a book titled "Angrezi Vyakaran ki Sahayak Pustak," which was hailed as 'a Hindi key to English learning' by a High Court judge and as "a quintessence of English grammar" by an eminent professor of Linguistics. With a view to developing understanding of language use in the learner, he published another book titled, "A Grammar Guide to Clear & Correct Expression. V.K.Varma is an acclaimed Hindi writer. Apart from articles, he has also published in Hindi a book on literary criticism, a poetry book in English and two collections in Hindi.

He now lives in Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh (India.) He finds his roots in Indian thought.
