Biography
I am a Kolkata-based queer activist, archivist, researcher and writer. I was a founding member of Counsel Club, Kolkata (1993-2002), among India’s earliest queer support groups, and used to edit its house journal called 'Pravartak' (https://vartagensex.org/cc-archives/). I worked with non-profit SAATHII, Chennai from 2002-14 on universal access to health and social justice. From 2012, I have been associated with gender and sexuality publishing, research and advocacy non-profit Varta Trust, Kolkata as Founding Trustee (https://vartagensex.org/). My latest publications include 'Queer Potli: Memories, Imaginations and Re-imaginations of Urban Queer Spaces in India', Queer Ink, 2019 and 'Out of Line and Offline: Queer Mobilizations in ‘90s Eastern India', Seagull Books, 2020 (https://www.seagullbooks.org/out-of-line-and-offline/). I am also engaged with the QAMRA Archival Project at National Law School of India University, Bangalore as Archiving Consultant (https://qamra.in/).
