A few words…..

About me




I believe that true change doesn’t come from a handout, but from a hand up. My mission is to inform, educate, and empower marginalized communities by providing the resources and knowledge they need to chart their own paths toward success.

I was born on October 2, 1948, in New Delhi to Christian parents from South India. Growing up across the diverse landscapes of Kashmir, Himachal, Uttarakhand, and New Delhi, I developed a perspective that has shaped my lifelong career in journalism, human rights activism, and public discourse.

To me, my work is more than a personal endeavor; it is the practice of an ideology of inclusion. I identify deeply with the marginalized and collaborate with like-minded individuals to build platforms that amplify the voices of the “least, the last, and the forgotten” in our society.
My approach is rooted in providing issue-based, context-driven leadership and guidance. While I offer support based on organizational identity and shared goals, this collaboration is a strategic partnership for progress rather than a blanket endorsement of every ideology held by those I work with.

Today, I remain committed to documenting and challenging the structural discrimination and violence facing India’s religious minorities and Dalits, ensuring that the promise of constitutional equality remains a lived reality for all.

Dated forever,
