Presently, I am a Research Scholar (Ph.D) at KIIT University. I have pursued my LLM (Constitutional & Administrative Law) from KIIT School of Law, Bhubaneswar and a law graduate from Sambalpur University, Odisha. Enrolled under Bar Council of India through All India Bar Examination (AIBE) in the year 2021. I always believed that, being aware is more important than being literates or educated. I just want to enhance awareness with information on the legal rights to the common people & also when and how one should enforce them against exploitation. I have authored nine impactful books, each delving into crucial aspects of law and society. My works include "The Growing Significance of Artificial Intelligence," "The role of Indian media in covering crimes: a critical analysis," "The use of Amicus Curiae Briefs at the International Criminal Tribunals," "Assessing the legal landscape of bio-medical waste management in India," "Journey of Law: From Deities to Decrees," "Evolution of Local-Self Government in India'', "The Invisible Manual Scavengers of India'', "Law and Justice in a Globalizing World: An LL.M. Companion" and "Comparative Public Law: An LLM. Companion." My contributions also extend to numerous publications in both international and national journals.
