About

I am a lawyer trained in international law and in the domestic law of India. My academic and professional background has shaped a sustained interest in how legal institutions operate in practice, particularly where law seeks to protect individuals and where it falls short.

I studied public international law and its related areas in a setting that emphasised analytical rigour, institutional accountability, and the protection of individuals within complex legal regimes.

I previously worked at the Office for the High Commissioner of Human Rights (OHCHR) in Geneva, Switzerland and now work with government employees, restoring their rights in service law, in New Delhi, India.

This site is a space for writing that grows out of my everyday engagement. Here, I reflect on international law, domestic legal questions, service law and the quieter ways in which law shapes everyday life. The writing is not intended to offer easy conclusions, but to think carefully, critically, and honestly about the role law plays in the world we inhabit.
