I am an assistant professor in the Inequality and Human Development Programme of the School of Social Sciences, National Institute of Advanced Studies. I obtained my PhD in Economics from the University of Göttingen, Germany. Before this, I studied at Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, the University of Tsukuba, Japan and the University of Calcutta, West Bengal.
I am an experimental economist by training with a growing interest in the issues of inequality. Built on the analytical rigour of experiments and Econometrics, my research at NIAS has been on the experiences and instrumentality of inequality. My recent research focuses on the aspects of poverty and deprivation, inequalities generated from the electoral system in India and the inequalities overlooked in data generation and representation.
