Bio

Since my Ph.D days, I have been working on birds especially their ecology and behaviour mostly in northern and north-eastern India. Presently I, as PI along with a researcher we are working on the Critically Endangered White-bellied Heron in Namdapha Tiger Reserve of Arunachal Pradesh under the SERB-funded project.
