Biography

I am currently working as a Digital Verification Journalist at Agence France Presse (AFP) with the South Asia Team in New Delhi.

My experience spans across various beats, including politics, religion, gender, climate, and human interest stories. I’ve previously worked with organizations like HT, The Quint, The Mooknayak, GroundReport, and more as a freelance contributor.
