Postdoctoral Fellow @Centre For The Study Of Developing Societies

As a Postdoctoral Fellow, my research focuses on an intersectional study of human trafficking in the tribal districts of Sundargarh and Rayagada in Odisha. This work explores the complex interplay of caste, class, gender, and regional marginalisation in shaping vulnerability and resistance. My project aims to produce grounded, policy-relevant knowledge that contributes to both academic discourse and social justice. I also engage in collaborative academic forums, publish research outputs, and mentor young scholars in related fields.
