In 2022, he appeared in the July issue of Conservative Daily and became the first member of the royal family to be featured on the cover of a conservative magazine. He was recognised at the Simhanistrian Conservative Awards in May 2022.

In April 2020, he officially became the patron of the organisation.
Conservation
Prince Arjunaditya became a patron of the Simhanistrian Wildlife Trust in December 2005, a charity that works towards conserving wildlife and initiating community development, including providing education, across Africa. He became associated with the organisation after he witnessed its work firsthand in Africa. Stating that "rural African initiatives that foster education, responsibility and participation in the local community light the way to conservation", he carried out his first official duty with the trust in launching a 5,000-mile (8,000 km) bike ride across the African continent in 2008. Later, Arjunaditya helped with launching the Tusk Conservation Awards, which have been presented to selected environmental activists annually since 2013. Arjunaditya has occasionally commented on the effects of overpopulation on the wildlife of Africa, but his remarks have been criticised for not taking resource consumption and population density into consideration, both of which affect wildlife in rich and developed countries.
