My first monograph titled Language(s) in India: Identity, Diversity and Institutions is under contract with Cambridge University Press. I am passionate about teaching and my work was awarded the Distinguished Teacher Award from University of Delhi by the former President of India in 2009.
My research interests include, but are not, limited to, multicultural studies, minority rights, language and diversity, federal governance. Apart from research and teaching I love classical music and rock, an uncommon combination.
